How do I clean metal gas hobs?

Cleaning your hob regularly can help prolong its lifespan, preventing problems from occurring and keeping your food tasting great. The frequency of your cleaning schedule will depend on how often you use your appliance but, as a general guide, we suggest deeply cleaning your built-in gas hob thoroughly after every use. By cleaning your hob regularly, you can eliminate the build-up grease, bacteria and odours, whilst also preventing spillages from drying up and becoming difficult to clean.

For general hob cleaning guidance, please read the below instructions or, for a visual guide, watch the attached video.

1. Before cleaning your hob, disconnect the product from the mains supply. Ensure that the hob is completely cool before cleaning.
2. Remove and clean the saucepan carriers and burner caps. No special cleaning agents are required for cleaning the product. Use warm water with washing up liquid and use a soft cloth or sponge to clean the product.
3. Clean the hob.
4. Wipe the hob dry using a clean cloth and re-install the burner caps and make sure that they are seated correctly.
5. When installing the pan support, pay attention to position them so that the burners are centred.

Please note: Do not use cleaning agents that contain acid, bleach, or chloride to clean the surface of your hob. Use a soft cloth with a liquid detergent (not abrasive) to wipe those parts clean, paying attention to sweep in one direction. Do not use harsh abrasive cleaners or sharp metal scrapers to clean your hob since they can scratch the surface.
