• Frequent cleaning is recommend rather than an occasional aggressive clean
• Cast iron pan supports may be removed to allow easy access to the hob panel
• Wash the glass exterior, pan supports, removable burner caps and flame ring with hot soapy water and a sponge or soft cloth
• Rinse and dry well
• Acidic spills such as lemon juice, should be cleaned as soon as possible as these tend to etch into metals if left unattended
• Routine cleaning will preserve the corrosion resistance and appearance for many years
• Clean the glass as often as necessary (when noticeably dull or dirty) and use the simplest cleaning method that will effectively do the job
• Never wash any of the components in the dishwasher
• Do NOT use oven cleaners, aerosols, scouring pads or abrasive cleaners on the control panel
• Wipe the control panel with a damp cloth and dry with a lint free cloth
• Do not attempt to remove any of the control knobs

COOKING PANS

• Use pans which are the right size for the burner. Do not use small pans on large burners. Flames must not touch the sides of the pan
• Place the pans on the pan supports, never directly on the burner. Pans should be placed on the hob carefully
• Always center the pan over the burner, not to one side, otherwise it could tip over 
• Do NOT place large pans on the burner near the control knobs. These may be damaged by the very high temperatures
