Cleaning and maintenance
14
* Use pots or pans with thick, completely flat
bottoms.
* Pots/pans with a smaller diameter than the
shown heating area are not recommended.
* Do not slide pots and pans over the glass
because they could scratch it.
* Although the glass can take knocks from
large pots and pans without sharp edges, try
not to knock it.
* To avoid damaging the ceramic glass surface,
do not drag pots and pans over the glass and
keep the undersides of them clean and in
good condition.
Try not to spill sugar or products con-
taining sugar on the glass as while the surfa-
ce is hot these could damage it.
To keep the appliance in good condition, clean it
using suitable products and implements once it
has cooled down. This will make the job easier
and avoid the build-up of dirt. Never use harsh
cleaning products or tools that could scratch the
surface, or steam-operated equipment.
Light dirt not stuck to the surface can be cleaned
using a damp cloth and a gentle detergent or
warm soapy water. However, for deeper stains
or grease use a special cleaner for ceramic hot
plates and follow the instructions on the bottle.
Dirt that is firmly stuck due to being burned repe-
atedly can be removed using a scraper with a
blade.
Slight tinges of colour are caused by pots and
pans with dry grease residue underneath or due
to grease between the glass and the pot during
cooking. These can be removed using a nickel
scourer with water or a special cleaner for cera-
mic hot plates. Plastic objects, sugar or food con-
taining a lot of sugar that have melted onto the
surface must be removed immediately using a
scraper.
Metallic sheens are caused by dragging metal
pots and pans over the glass. These can be
removed by cleaning thoroughly using a special
cleaner for ceramic glass hot plates, although
you may need to repeat the cleaning process
several times.
Warning:
Handle the glass scraper carefully. The
blade could cause injury!
If you use the scraper incorrectly, the
blade could break and a fragment could get
caught between the surrounding trim and the
glass. If this happens, do not try to remove it
using your hands, carefully use tweezers or
a knife with a fine edge (See fig. 4).
Only use the blade on the ceramic sur-
face, avoiding the scraper casing coming
into contact with the glass because this
could scratch it.
Use blades in perfect condition.
Immediately replace the blade if it is dama-
ged in any way.
After you have finished with the scra-
per, withdraw the blade and lock it (See fig. 5).
A pot or pan may become stuck to the
glass due to a product having melted betwe-
en them. Do not try to lift the pot while the
heating zone is cold! This could break the
glass.
Do not step on the glass or lean on it as
it could break and cause injury. Do not use
the glass as a surface for placing objects.
