Cleaning and maintenance

Cleaning

Once the appliance is cool, use a sponge to clean it
with soap and water.
After each use, clean the surface of the respective
burner parts once they have cooled down. If any
residue is left (baked-on food, drops of grease etc.),
however little, it will become stuck to the surface and
more difficult to remove later. The holes and grooves
must be clean for the flame to ignite properly.
The movement of some pans may leave metal residue
on the pan supports.
Clean the burners and pan supports using soapy
water and scrub with a non-wire brush.
If the pan supports are fitted with rubber rests, ensure
that these are also cleaned. The rests may come loose
and the pan support may scratch the hob.
Always dry the burners and pan supports completely.
Water droplets or damp patches on the hob at the
start of cooking may damage the enamel.
After cleaning and drying the burners, make sure the
burner caps are correctly positioned on the diffuser.
Caution!
– Do not use steam cleaners. This could damage
the hob.
– Never use abrasive products, steel scourers,
sharp implements, knives, etc. to remove bits of
hardened food from the hob.
– Do not use knives, scrapers or similar implements
to clean the point where the glass meets the
burner trims, the metal frames or the glass/
aluminium panels, if fitted.

Maintenance

Always clean off any liquid as soon as it is spilt. This
will prevent food remains from sticking to the hob
surface and you will save yourself any unnecessary
effort.
Never slide pans across the glass surface, as you may
scratch it. In addition, try not to drop heavy or sharp
objects on the glass. Never strike any part of the hob.
Grains of sand that may come from cleaning fruits and
vegetables will scratch the glass surface.
Melted sugar, or foods which contain a lot of sugar
which may have spilt, should be cleaned off the
hotplate immediately, using the glass scraper.
