Everyday soiling
on glass
(fingerprints,
marks, stains left
by food or
non-sugary
spillovers on the
glass)
1. Switch off the power
2. Apply a cooktop 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
again.
• When the power is switched off,
there will be no ‘hot surface’
indication but the cooking zone
may still be hot! Take extreme
care.
• Heavy-duty sponges, some
nylon sponges and abrasive
cleaning agents may scratch
the glass. Always read the label
to check if cleaner or sponges is
suitable.
• Never leave cleaning residue on
the cooktop: the glass may
become stained.
Boilovers, melts,
and hot sugary
spills on the glass
Remove these immediately
with a fish slicer, palette
knife or razor blade scraper
suitable for Induction glass
cooktops, but beware of
hot cooking zone surfaces:
1. Switch off the main
power.
2. Hold the blade or utensil
at a 30° angle and
scrape the soiling or
spills.
3. Wipe the soiling or spill
with a cloth or paper
towel.
4. Follow steps 2 to 4 for
‘Everyday soiling on
glass’ above.
• Remove stains left by melts;
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: Take extra care
when using any blade or sharp
knifes in scraping. Sharp edges
may be dangerous. Always
store safely and keep out of reach
by children.
Spillovers on the

3. Wipe the touch control
area with a clean damp
sponge or cloth.
