The hob
Slight soiling which is not burnt on
• After the appliance has cooled, use a
damp cloth with no cleaning agent to wipe
away dirt. Then dry the surface with a soft
cloth to prevent lime stains.
• You can easily remove light stains having
a pearlescent colour (aluminium residues,
such as from aluminium foil) using a com-
mercially available detergent that is spe-
cifically available for such cleaning.
• Vinegar is good for removing lime stains.
Hard, baked-on dirt
• Tough stains can be most easily removed
after cooling using a blade scraper.
Cleaning agents designed especially for
this purpose can also be found in special-
ist shops.
Finally, wipe the surface with a damp cloth.
• Treat the hob with a special care product
after cleaning.

cleaning, for example, oven mitts to pro-
tect against burns. Then use the blade
scraper to remove the dirt from hot glass
ceramic.
• Once the hob has cooled down, you can
remove residues using a specially de-
signed cleaning product which is available
from specialist shops.
