To clean your Hotpoint hob, ensure it is turned off and cool. Use a soft cloth with warm soapy water to wipe the surface. Avoid using abrasive sponges or chemicals that could damage the finish.
If the burners are not igniting, check if the hob is connected to the power supply and ensure the gas supply is on. Clean the burner caps and ensure they are placed correctly. If the problem persists, contact a qualified technician.
Yes, cast iron pans can be used on the hob. However, ensure the base of the pan is smooth to avoid scratching the glass surface and always lift the pan instead of sliding it.
A clicking sound is normal when the hob ignites. It should stop once the burner is lit. If it continues, ensure the burner cap is properly placed and clean. Persistent clicking may need professional inspection.
To ensure efficient gas consumption, use cookware that matches the size of the burner and keep pans covered when cooking to retain heat. Regular cleaning and maintenance also help in efficient performance.
No, it is not safe to use the hob if the glass surface is cracked. Discontinue use immediately and contact a professional technician for repair or replacement to prevent any safety hazards.
Regular maintenance includes cleaning the hob after each use, checking the condition of the burners and gas connections, and inspecting the power cord for any damage. Schedule professional servicing annually.
To adjust the flame, turn the burner control knob to the desired setting. Ensure that the flame is steady and blue. If adjustments are needed, refer to the user manual or consult a technician.
If you smell gas, do not turn on any electrical appliances or lights. Open windows for ventilation and check if the gas knobs are turned off. Contact your gas supplier or a qualified technician immediately.
To prevent scratches, use cookware with smooth bottoms and avoid dragging them across the surface. Clean spills promptly and use a protective pad or cloth under heavy cookware.
