Cleaning and Maintenance
Before cleaning the cooktop, first isolate the cooktop from the power. Once done, ensure that there is no
residual heat stored in the appliance. Vitro-ceramic glass is very resistant to high temperature and
overheating. If there is residual heat stored in the appliance, the related residual heat icon will be on. To
avoid burns, let the appliance cool down.
•
Remove all spilled food and fat with a clean, damp, warm, slightly soapy dishcloth. Rinse cloth and
wipe cooktop again until clean, then wipe the cooktop dry with a clean tea towel or dry, soft cloth.
•
If aluminium foil or plastic items are accidentally melted onto the vitro-ceramic surface, they should
be immediately removed from the hot cooking area with a scraper specifically designed for vitro-
ceramic glass. This will avoid any possible damage to the surface. This also applies to sugar or food
containing sugar that may be spilled on the cooktop.
•
In the event of other food melted onto the cooktop surface, remove the dirt when the appliance has
cooled down. Use cleaner for glass ceramic or stainless steel when cleaning the surface.
•
Do not use abrasive sponges to clean the vitro-ceramic surface. These materials may damage the
surface.
•
Do not use chemical detergents, sprays or spot removers on the vitro-ceramic surface. These
materials may cause fire or the vitro-ceramic colour to fade. Clean with a damp, warm, slightly soapy
dishcloth.
•
WARNING : Using cookware that is too large can cause discolouration or damage to the cooktop
surface around the heat zones, which is NOT covered under warranty.
