Cleaning and care
31

Risk of burning due to hot
surfaces.
The cooktop surface, pan supports
and burners will be hot after use.
Allow the cooktop to cool down
before cleaning it.

Risk of damage due to moisture
ingress.
The steam from a steam cleaning
appliance could reach live electrical
components and cause a short
circuit.
Do not use a steam cleaner to clean
the cooktop.
All surfaces could be discoloured or
damaged if unsuitable cleaning
agents are used. All surfaces are
susceptible to scratching.
Remove all cleaning agent residues
immediately.
Never use abrasive sponges or
cleaning agents.
Food boiling over on a hot cooktop
can cause discoloration of the burner
components.
Remove any soiling and salt and
sugar splashes immediately.
When a control knob is pressed
down, a spark is generated on the
ignitor. Do not press down the
control knob while you are cleaning
or touching the cooktop or a burner
in the vicinity of an ignitor.
Unsuitable cleaning agents
To avoid damaging the surfaces of the
appliance, do not use:
– cleaning agents containing soda,
alkalines, ammonia, acids or
chlorides
– cleaning agents containing descaling
agents
– stain and rust removers
– abrasive cleaning agents, e.g.
powder cleaners and cream cleaners
– solvent-based cleaning agents
– dishwasher cleaner
– oven sprays
– grill and oven cleaners
– glass cleaning agents
– hard, abrasive brushes or sponges
(e.g. pot scourers), or sponges which
have been previously used and still
contain abrasive cleaning agents
– dirt erasers
