Glass ceramic stove
top
Safety
was
priority
during
production and construction
The ceramic hob is mechanically very
stable and can withstand readily moderate
to heavy shocks. If by mechanical shock
splits and cracks appear on the plate, the
equipment must be turned off by closing the
air control. The ceramic hob must be
replaced by a new one. Due to the
extensive heat output pots with plastic
handles are not suitable.When cleaning the
device make sure that the underside of the
ceramic hob is not scratched. The best is to
clean with a smooth brush.
When cleaning the following principles
must be observed
:
1. Clean the stove top when it is only slightly
dirty
– possibly after every use. For this use a
damp, clean wipe and a little dishwashing
liquid.
Rub the stove top dry with a clean wipe
afterwards. No detergent should remain on the
surface.
2. Clean the entire hob thoroughly once a
week. For this use standard cleaning and
maintenance products. Then clean the
whole cooking field adequately with clear
water and rub it dry with a clean wipe.
Please pay attention not to have any
detergent residues on the surface! The hob
might be damaged by that! Heavy stains
(limescale, pearly, shiny spots built up
during cooking) are best to remove when
the cooking zone is still warm (not hot).
3.
Overcooked food
Soak first with a wet wipe and then remove
remaining stains with a glass or razor blades
scraper. Clean the area afterwards as
described in point 2.

Caramelised sugar
Molten
plastic
must
be
removed
immediately (while still hot) with a glass
scraper. Clean the area afterwards as
described in point 2.
When using and moving pots with
aluminium bottom there can be some
particles deposited on the plate. (These
can become glossy spots). In this aspect it
is no damage to the hob. The deposits can
be removed easily with ordinary household
cleaners.
* Use only dishes with even, smooth
bottom, never with rough bottom (for
example pots made of cast iron or with
damaged bottom), befailure when moving
they scratch the surface.
Rub the pot bottom dry before use
because limescale can also damage the
hob.
The cooking area and the pot bottoms must
be always clean as dirt and food leftovers
(especially containing sugar) but also
grains of sand (which are accidentally on
the surface) and remains of cleaning
materials burn in to the surface during
cooking and might damage it. Preparing
food in aluminium foil or in plastic
containers on the hot cooking area is not
permitted.
The cooking surface is highly resistant, but
it is not unbreakable! Especially hard and
sharp objects that fall on the cooking
surface can damage it.
Before cleaning let the stove cool down.
Never use scratching scouring pad, rough
abrasives, rust and stain remover for
cleaning.
