Deep Fat Frying Safely 1. Use a deep pan, large enough to completely cover the appropriate heating area. Never leave oil or fat unattended during the heating or cooking period. Always dry food thoroughly before frying, then lower it slowly into the hot oil or fat. Bath and sink cleaners may mark the surface The Ceramic Hob To reduce the amount of cleaning always ensure that the hob and cooking utensils are clean and dry before use. Regular use of cleaner conditioner is recommended for proper care and protection of the hob surface. It contains a mild cleaning agent, so that subsequent applications may clean off soil and apply a protective film at the same time. For stubborn stains or heavy soiling use any of the following materials, and finish off with conditioner. Powder Cleanser ­ Mineral deposits that are present in hard water, and some foods, may cause `discolourations' that appear in the form of grey or brown stains. If there are some persistent stains after using any of the other recommended cleaning materials, powder cleanser may be applied, following the manufacturers instructions. Do not use abrasive cleaners or the powder cleanser on the painted metal framework. Cleaner Conditioner ­ Regular use of the conditioner will make the surface easier to clean thus ensuring that years of heavy abrasive cleaning do not progressively dull the surface. If the hob is scratched through accident or misuse, soil that collects will appear as fine brown lines; these are not fully removable but can be made less obvious by the daily use of cleaner conditioner. Cooking performance is in no way affected by scratches on the surface. Such marks are easily removed by the powder cleanser, provided they are not subsequently baked on for long periods at high temperatures. [. . . ] Any warping caused by improper installation can alter the characteristics of the hob as well as its performance. BEFORE USE WARNING: During storage, the glue used for the joints leaves a slight oily residue on the glass. We recommend that you remove this residue before you turn on the hob, using a common cleaning product (non-abrasive polishing cream). During the first few hours of use, the hob may emit a `rubbery' odour which will soon disappear. Fig. [. . . ]
