Electrolux EHG30235 x: Cleaning and Maintenance

Cleaning and Maintenance

Disconnect the appliance from the electrical

supply, before carrying out any cleaning or

manteinance work.

The hob is best cleaned whilst it is still warm,

as spillage can be removed more easily than

if it is left to cool.

This appliance cannot be cleaned with steam

or with a steam cleaning machine.

General cleaning

Wash the enamelled components with warm soapy

water. Never use abrasive cleaners

Frequently wash the "caps" and the "crowns" with hot

soapy water, carefully taking away any built-up of food.

Regularly wipe over the hob top using a soft cloth weel

wrung out in warm water to which a little liquid detergent

has been added. Avoid the use of the following:

- household detergent and bleaches;

- impregnated pads unsuitable for non-stick saucepans;

- steel wool pads;

- bath/sink stain removers.

Should the hob top become heavily soiled, it is

recommended that a proper cleaning product is used.

The Pan supports

The pan supports can be removed from the hob to allow

a better cleaning.

If the marks are particularly difficult to remove, use

common non-abrasive cleaners or specific products.

Never use steel wool pads or acids.

After cleaning, make sure that the pan supports are

correctly positioned.

Pay attention when replacing the pan

supports in order to avoid damaging the hob

top.

Avoid placing the cast iron pan support on the

hob surface in order to avoid damaging or

scratching it.

The Burners

The burner caps and crowns can be removed for cleaning.

Wash the burner caps and crowns using hot soapy water,

and remove marks with a mild paste cleaner. A well

moistened soap impregnated steel wool pad can be used

with caution, if the marks are particularly difficult to remove.

After cleaning, be sure to wipe dry with a soft cloth.

Periodic Maintenance

Periodically ask your local Service Centre to check the

conditions of the gas supply pipe and the pressure

adjuster, if fitted.
