10. Maintenance and Cleaning
•
Before any maintenance or cleaning, disconnect
the appliance from the mains.
•
After each use, when cool, clean the hob
eliminating even the small residues which,
when the hob is switched on again, can become
impossible to remove.
•
Only use suitable products, avoiding steel wool
pads, abrasive sponges and power detergents
as these products can scratch the surface of the
glass.
•
Sprays to clean ovens are not suitable as they
are aggressive and damaging for the surface of
the glass.
Slight residue
can be removed with a damp cloth or
with hot soapy water.
Ring marks
from soap can be removed with water
which must be dried using a soft cloth.
Marks of scale
, caused by boiling liquids overflowing
from the containers, are removed with vinegar,
lemon or an anti
-
scale product.
Eliminate residues of detergent as, the next time
they heat up, they could become aggressive for the
glass.
For
resistant and hardened incrustations
we
recommend using a scrape for windows with a
metallic blade (
Fig. 30
).

Do not use jets of steam for cleaning.
To remedy any anomalies of functioning, please
contact qualified personnel.
PERIODICALLY
The hob and extractor area below can be cleaned
with water and neutral liquid detergent. Don
’
t use
solvents or abrasives.
To wash the interior part, just lift the hob by placing
your hands in the suction holes and pull upwards.
The hood will remain open to carry out all necessary
cleaning. When you have done, you should lower
the hob with two hands slowly.
Cleaning the aluminium grease filter
The aluminium grease filter can be hand
-
washed
with water and neutral liquid detergent or in the
dishwasher in the upper basket.
The filter cleaning alarm is activated after 40 hours
of operation and it is detected by a flashing LED
associated with the ON/OFF key; to reset it, press
the Timer button when the motor is off.
WARNING: the accumulation of grease in the filters
could generate a fire risk.
Cleaning Filter Kit (If in recirculation mode)
The recirculating filter is composed by a HI
-
FILTER.
This allows you to wash them by hand or in the
dishwasher. The filter is then regenerated in the
over for 15 minutes at 100°C. It has a lifespan of up
to 3 years before replacement.
