Everyday soiling on
glass (fingerprints,
marks, stains left by
food or non-sugary
spillovers on the
glass).
1. Switch the power to the hob off.
2. Apply a hob 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 hob back on.
- When the power to the hob 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 whether your cleaner or scourer is
suitable.
- Never leave cleaning residue on the hob as
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
ceramic glass hobs, but beware of hot cooking
zone surfaces:
1. Switch the power to the hob off at the wall.
2. Hold the blade or utensil at a 30° angle and
scrape the soiling or spill over to a cool area
of the hob.
3. Clean the soiling or spill up with a dish cloth or
paper towel.
4. Follow steps 2 to 4 for ‘Everyday soiling on
glass’ above.
Remove melts and sugary food
or spillovers as soon as possible.
If left to cool on the glass, they may be
difficult to remove or may 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 hob 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 with a paper
towel.
5. Switch the power back on.
The hob 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 hob back on.
