Maintenance & Troubleshooting
Caution:
Before maintenance or cleaning is carried out, the
cooktop
should be disconnected from the main power
supply. Ensure that the
cooktop
is switched off at the wall socket and the plug removed.
Spills and splashes will not harden and stick to the glass, as it hardly heats up.
Both Vitro-ceramic and induction rings should however be cleaned of any spills or splashes as quickly as
possible.
Slight stains can be removed with kitchen paper or cloth. Do not use steam clearer.
More resistant stains will need specific product for vitro-ceramic glass. Follow each product’s
in
structions
.
To avoid the chance of permanent damage from stains and spills, it is recommended you clean any
residue off the glass by using an cleaner that is specially formulated for cleaning & polishing ceramic
glass cooktops.
Switch off the appliance from the electrical supply, wait for the glass to completely cool down and use a
cleaner that is non-scratch and formulated to remove stains & spills; avoid using general household
cleaners that may scratch or damage your cooktop.
What?
How?
Important!
Everyday soiling
on
glass
(fingerprints,
marks, stains
left by food or
non-sugary
spillovers on the
glass)
1.
Switch the power to the cooktop off.
2.
Apply a cooktop cleaner while the glass is
still warm (but not hot!)
3.
Rinse and wipe dry with a clean cloth or
paper towel.
4.
Switch the power to the cooktop back on.
When the power to the cooktop is switched off, there
will be no ‘hot surface’ indication but the cooking
zone may still be hot! Take extreme care.
Heavy-duty scourers, some nylon scourers and
harsh/abrasive cleaning agents may scratch the
glass. Always read the label to check if your cleaner
or scourer is suitable.
Never leave cleaning residue on the cooktop: the
glass may become stained.
Boilovers, melts,
and
hot sugary spills
on
the glass
Remove these immediately with a fish slice,
palette knife or razor blade scraper suitable for
Induction glass cooktop, but beware of hot
cooking zone surfaces:
1.
Switch the power to the cooktop off at the
wall.
2.
Hold the blade or utensil at a 30° angle and
scrape the soiling or spill to a cool area of
the cooktop.
3.
Clean the soiling or spill up with a dish cloth
or paper towel.
4.
Follow steps 2 to 4 of ‘Everyday soiling on
glass’ above.
Remove stains left by melts and sugary food or
spillovers as soon as possible. If left to cool on the
glass, they may be difficult to remove or even
permanently damage the glass surface.
Cut hazard: when the safety cover is retracted, the
blade in a scraper is razor-sharp. Use with extreme
care and always store safely and out of reach of
children.
Spillovers on the
touch controls
1.
Switch the power to the cooktop off.
2.
Soak up the spill
3.
Wipe the touch control area with a clean
damp sponge or cloth.
4.
Wipe the area completely dry
5.
with a paper towel.

The cooktop may beep and turn itself off, and the touch
controls may not function while there is liquid on them.
Make sure you wipe the touch control area dry before
turning the cooktop back on.
