9  Cleaning and servicing

To keep your appliance working efficiently for a long
time, it is important to clean and maintain it carefully.

9.1 Cleaning product

You can obtain suitable cleaning products from after-
sales service or the online shop.

ATTENTION!

Unsuitable cleaning products may damage the sur-
faces of the appliance.

Do not use harsh or abrasive detergents.

Do not use steel wool.

Do not use a knife or sharp objects to remove dried-
on food remnants from the hob.

Do not use a knife or sharp objects to clean the
connection between the glass and the burner pan-
els, the metal frames or the glass/aluminium plates
for cleaning.

Do not use steam-cleaning appliances.

9.2 Cleaning the appliance

ATTENTION!

When the control knob is removed while cleaning the
appliance, humidity may get in and damage the interior
of the appliance.

When cleaning the appliance, do not remove the
controls.

1.

Allow the appliance to cool down.

2.

Clean using a sponge and soapy water.

3.

Dry with a soft cloth.

Tip: 

Remove spilled liquids immediately. This prevents

food remains from sticking, and the time and effort re-
quired for subsequent cleaning is reduced.

9.3 Cleaning the burners

After each use, clean the surface of the burner parts.
This prevents food remains from burning on.

ATTENTION!

The burner parts can be damaged if you clean them in
a dishwasher.

Do not clean the burner parts in a dishwasher.

Note: 

Read the information on the cleaning agents.

2.

Clean using a non-metallic brush and soapy water.

3.

Completely dry the appliance. If there are water
droplets or damp areas at the start of cooking, this
may damage the enamel.

4.

Insert the burner parts. Ensure that the burner caps
are correctly positioned on the flame spreader.

droplets or damp areas at the start of cooking, this
may damage the enamel.
