To clean your Caple C993G hob, wait until it has cooled down completely. Use a soft cloth and a mild detergent to wipe the surface. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or sharp objects that might scratch the glass surface.

What should I do if the hob does not heat up?

If the hob does not heat up, ensure it is properly connected to the power supply. Check the circuit breaker and reset it if necessary. If the problem persists, consult the user manual for troubleshooting tips or contact Caple customer service.

How can I lock the controls on my Caple C993G hob?

To lock the controls, press and hold the lock button (usually marked with a key symbol) for a few seconds until the lock indicator lights up. This prevents accidental changes to the settings.

Why does the hob make a clicking sound?

The clicking sound is normal and indicates that the electronic ignition is working to light the gas burners. If the clicking continues after the burner is lit, ensure that the burner cap is correctly positioned.

What is the best way to maintain the metal parts of the hob?

Regularly clean the metal parts with a damp cloth and a non-abrasive cleaner. Dry thoroughly after cleaning to prevent corrosion. Avoid using steel wool or harsh chemicals.

How do I reset the Caple C993G hob after a power outage?

To reset the hob after a power outage, turn off all controls and disconnect the appliance from the power supply for a few minutes. Reconnect and turn on the hob to resume normal operation.

Why is the flame on my hob burner uneven?

An uneven flame can be caused by blocked burner ports. Ensure the burners are clean and free from food debris. Remove and clean the burner caps and heads with warm, soapy water, then dry them thoroughly.

Can I use cast iron cookware on my Caple C993G hob?

Yes, you can use cast iron cookware, but be careful as it can scratch the glass surface. Lift the cookware instead of sliding it across the hob. Ensure the base of the cookware is clean and dry before use.

How can I improve the energy efficiency of my Caple C993G hob?

To improve energy efficiency, use cookware that matches the size of the burners and has a flat base. Cover pots and pans with lids to retain heat, and turn off the burners a few minutes before cooking is complete to use residual heat.

What should I do if I smell gas when using the hob?

If you smell gas, do not turn on any electrical appliances or lights. Open windows to ventilate the area and ensure all gas controls are turned off. Contact a qualified gas technician immediately to inspect the appliance.
