Care and Cleaning
Refer to the SAFETY WARNINGS section at the front of this manual for
detailed information regarding safety when cleaning. Cooktop should be
powered off before any Maintenance or cleaning is carried out. Use of steam
cleaners for cleaning is
not permitted
. The below table is a guide to carry out
cleaning of 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 ceramic glass
cooktops, 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 for ‘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 with
a paper towel.
5. Switch the power to the cooktop
back on.
• 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.
Note:
To keep the ceramic glass surface in good condition a cleaner like Hillmark’s
Cerapol is recommended. For stubborn stains a scraper should be used to remove
excess spills.
