Cleaning the cooktop
Care and maintenance of
glass-ceramic cooktops
Clean the cooktop, when it is
cool, after each use. This will
prevent the build-up of dirt
and make cleaning easier.
• Use a clean cloth,
absorbent kitchen wipes
and washing up liquid or a
specific glass-ceramic hob
cleaner.
• Remove baked-on dirt
with the supplied scraper
tool and specific cleaning
products.
• Food spills should be
cleaned off before they
bake onto the glass-
ceramic surface.
• Do not use abrasive
products, bleach, oven-
cleaner spray or pan
scourers.
• The cooktop should be
treated periodically with a
proprietary brand of
protective wax for glass-
ceramic hobs.
Before cleaning the cooktop,
disconnect it from the
electrical supply and wait
until it has cooled.
Care and Maintenance of
conventional cooktop
• Use a cloth and warm
soapy water.
• Do not use abrasives,
corrosive cleaners, cleaners
containing chlorine or pan
scourers.
• Do not leave acidic
substances on the cooktop
(vinegar, salt, lemon juice,
etc.).
Stainless steel cooktop
• Use a proprietary cleaning
product for stainless steel.
N.B:
Prolonged use of the
cooktop may result in slight
discoloration of the stainless
steel surfaces around the
hotplates. This is caused by
the high temperature of the
hotplates.
Cleaning the hotplates
Clean the hotplates when
they are warm
(not hot!). Use a cloth
moistened with water and
salt. Dry and clean with a
cloth moistened with
cooking oil.
