Cleaning and care

Ceramic cooktop

Generally you can use the same clean-
ing agents for the ceramic cooktop as
you would for ordinary glass surfaces.

Never use scouring agents or pads,
or strong cleaners such as oven
sprays or stain removers, as these
could harm the surface.

Clean after each use

Wipe off any minor spills with a damp
cloth.

If the cooktop is cleaned with a soap,
for example dishwashing  liquid, light
blue staining may occur. These stains
can be removed with a ceramic cook-
top cleaner, although they can be
stubborn and may take several applica-
tions.

Hardened spills should be carefully
scraped off with a razor blade.  The
cooktop surface should then be
rubbed clean with a damp cloth.

Light marks with a metallic sheen

Aluminum deposits on the cooktop sur-
face can be removed once the cooktop
has cooled down by using a ceramic
cooktop cleaner.

Lime deposits caused by water boiling
over, can be removed with vinegar or a
ceramic cooktop cleaner.

Removal of sugar, syrups, plastic or
aluminum foil

Do not turn off the cooking area! 
Scrape off the residue thoroughly
from the hot cooktop with a razor
blade, taking care not to burn your-
self. Then turn off the cooktop, and
when it is cool, clean with a ceramic
cooktop cleaner.

Suitable ceramic cooktop cleaners

There are special cleaners on the mar-
ket for ceramic cooktops. Follow the
manufacturer’s instructions.

If you have difficulty finding a suitable
ceramic cooktop cleaner, contact the
Miele Service Department for advice.

Do not apply to the cooktop when
still hot.

After applying the ceramic cooktop
cleaner let it dry and then rub it off
using a soft towel.

Always make sure that every trace of
cleaning agent has been removed, as it
could have an adverse effect on the
cooktop when turned on.
