Never apply a detergent on the hot cooking zone. It is best to let the cleaner dry and then
wipe it wet. Any traces of the detergent should be wiped off clean with a damp cloth before
re-heating. Otherwise, it can be corrosive.
Warranty will be void if you do not follow the above guidelines!
Removing stains
•
• Bright stains of pearl colour (residual aluminium) can be removed from the cool hob
using a special cleaning agent. Limestone residue (eg. after evaporated water) can be
removed by vinegar or a special cleaning agent.

• Do not turn off the cooking zone when removing sugar, food containing sugar, plastic
and aluminium foil. Immediately and thoroughly scrape the leftovers off the hot cooking
zone using a sharp scraper. Once the bulk of the stain is removed the hob can be turned
off and clean the cooled off cooking zone with a special cleaning agent. Special cleaners
are available in supermarkets, electrical and home appliance shops, drug stores, as well
as retail food shops and kitchen showrooms. Scrapers can be purchased in DIY and
construction equipment stores, as well as in shops carrying painting accessories.
