CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
GB
18
The cooking top must be cleaned after each use. Allow the appliance to cool before cleaning it.
Prior to cleaning the ceramic glass cooking hob, it is advisable to activate the Child Lock function,
so that the cooking top is not switched on accidentally (see Child Lock function).
Use only cleaning products specially formulated for ceramic glass cooking tops. Respect all
indications on the product packaging.
Do not use the following cleaning products, as they may cause damage to the surfaces of the
ceramic glass cooking top:
softeners or products for eliminating stains and/or rust;
dishwashing and/or dishwasher detergents;
detergents for glass;
detergents containing soda, ammonium, acids or chlorides;
any abrasive detergent, sponge or brush;
solvents;
dirt removing rubber erasers;
pointed objects;
oven or grill cleaning products;
any steam device, as steam can reach the appliance’s live parts and cause a short circuit.
To prevent damaging the cooking top frame, observe the following guidelines:
Use hot water only, with little soap;
Never use pointed utensils or abrasive products;
Do use a window scraping tool.
Any cooking or dirt residue should be removed with a window scraping tool. Be careful when
using scraping tools to avoid injury.
If sugar or food preparations containing sugar, plastic or aluminium foil end up on the hot cooking
top, it is advisable to switch it off. Remove these substances immediately from the cooking zone,
even if the cooking top is still hot, using a scraper; otherwise these substances can damage the
ceramic glass top when cooling down.
(Warning: burn hazard!!!) Lastly, clean the cooking zone when it has cooled.
The symbols on the cooking top can wear out as a result of using abrasive or aggressive detergents,
steel wool, and the scraping of pots and pans. Avoid using these cleaning products. In any case,
this will not in any way compromise the unit’s correct operation.
Note: all of the problem issues described in this section are solely of an aesthetic nature and do not
in any way affect the appliance’s correct operation. They cannot be restored under the warranty.
