Care and Cleaning
In the interests of both safety and hygiene your Belling Format
needs to be kept clean. A build-up of grease or fat from cooking
could cause a fire hazard.
WARNING! For your own safety, always switch off your
cooker at the wall mounted cooker control unit and allow
the cooker to cool before cleaning.
Never use excessive amounts of water to clean your cooker, and
remember that your cooker is heavy – take care when pulling it out
for access.
WARNING! Never use steam cleaners.
WARNING! If any crack should appear on the hob, isolate the
cooker at the wall mounted cooker control unit. Do not use any
part of the cooker and contact your Belling Service Agent.
The ceramic hob is very hard wearing and with normal care should
remain in good condition. However, it is important that any spillage
is dealt with before the hob is used again, otherwise it will become
baked on.
Once the hob has cooled, remove any heavy spillage or soiling with
a metal spatula, palette knife or scraper, then use a little Belling
Ceramic Hob Cleaner & Conditioner on a damp cloth to remove any
marks. Wipe off the residue of the cleaner with a soft damp cloth
and polish the hob with a soft lint-free cloth. It is important that the
hob is cleaned regularly with Belling Ceramic Hob Cleaner &
Conditioner as it provides a protective film to keep the hob in good
condition and assists in keeping the hob clean.
Whilst it is recommended that normal cleaning is carried out when
the hob has cooled, if jam, fruit or anything with a high sugar
content is spilled on the hob, or plastic or aluminium is melted onto
the hob, clean it off immediately, as damage to the hob can result.
Switch off the cooker and use a metal spatula, palette knife or
scraper to remove the spillage. TAKE CARE, as the spillage and the
hob may be very hot. When the hob has cooled, clean as usual with
Belling Ceramic Hob Cleaner & Conditioner.
Do not use scouring powders or paste, wire wool scouring pads, or
oven cleaners on the hob as these can cause damage to the hob
surface. If you require further Belling Ceramic Hob Cleaner &
Conditioner please contact Belling Customer Helpline on 01709
579902 or Spares dept. on 01709 579907
The outside surfaces of your cooker should be cleaned with a mild
detergent and a little water. Wipe off the detergent with a damp
cloth and dry the cooker with a soft lint-free cloth.
Do not use scouring pads or abrasive detergents, particularly on the
stainless steel control panel and doors as damage may result.
Some proprietory cleaning products can attack plastic parts.
Clean door handles/trims with warm soapy water only. Do not use
cream or abrasive cleaners.
