Everyday
soiling on
glass
(fingerprints,
marks, stains
left by food or
non-sugary
spillovers on
the glass)
1. Switch off the power
supply.
2. Apply a vitro-ceramic
glass cleaner while the
glass is still warm (but
not hot!)
3. Rinse and wipe dry with a
clean cloth or paper
towel.
4. Switch on the power
supply to the hob.
• When turn off the power
supply of hob, 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 hob glass surface: the
glass may become stained.
Boil over,
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 of
hob, but beware of hot
cooking zone surfaces:
1. Switch off the power
supply.
2. Hold the blade or utensil
at a 30° angle and
scrape the soiling or spill
to a cool area of the hob.
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.
