Cleaning and care
32
Risk of damage from pointed
objects!
Do not use sharp, pointed objects to
clean the area between the glass
ceramic and the trim or between the
trim and the countertop.
Using dishwashing liquid to clean the
cooktop will not remove all soiling
and residues.
It forms an invisible coating which
will cause permanent discolouration
of the ceramic surface.
Clean the glass ceramic surface
regularly with a suitable ceramic
cooktop cleaning agent.
First, wipe away all coarse soiling
from the surface using a damp cloth.
Stubborn soiling may need to be
removed with a scraper blade.
Then, clean the glass ceramic surface
with the Miele ceramic and stainless
steel cleaner (see "Optional
accessories") or commercial glass
ceramic cleaner using a paper towel
or clean cloth. Do not put the cleaner
on a hot surface, as this may cause
spotting. Please follow the
manufacturer's instructions.
Remove any cleaner residue with a
damp cloth and then dry the glass
ceramic surface.
Residues can burn onto the appliance
the next time it is used and cause
damage to the ceramic surface.
Ensure that all cleaning agent residues
are removed.
Spots
from lime deposits, water, and
aluminum deposits (shiny metallic
spots) can be removed with a
ceramic and stainless steel cleaner.
Burn hazard!
Wear oven mitts when using a
scraper blade to remove sugar,
plastic or aluminum residues from a
hot cooktop.
Should any
sugar, plastic or
aluminium foil
spill or fall on to a hot
cooking zone while it is in use, first
switch off the appliance.
Then carefully scrape off all the sugar,
plastic or aluminium residues from
the hob whilst they are still hot using
a shielded scraper blade. Take good
care.
Afterwards, clean the glass ceramic
surface in its cooled state, as
described above.
