CLEANING
AND
CARE
Problem Dirt
1.
Remove burnt-on sugar, melted plastic, aluminium foil or other materials with
a glass scraper immediately and while still hot.
There is a risk of burning yourself when the glass scraper is used on a hot
cooking zone:
2.
Clean the hob as normal when it has cooled down.
If the cooking zone on which something has melted has been allowed to
cool, warm it up again for cleaning.
Scratches or dark blemishes on the ceramic glass
surface, caused, for example, by a pan with sharp
edges, cannot be removed. However, they do not
impair the function of the hob.
HOB FRAME (OPTION)
Do not use vinegar, lemon juice or scale remover on the hob frame; otherwise dull
blemishes will appear.
1.
Wipe the frame with a damp cloth.
2.
Moisten dried debris with a wet cloth. Wipe and rub dry.
TO AVOID DAMAGING YOUR APPLIANCE
•
Do not use the hob as a work surface or for storage.
•
Do not operate a cooking zone if there is no pan on the hob or if the pan is
empty.
•
Ceramic glass is very tough and resistant to temperature shock, but it is not
unbreakable.
It can be damaged by a particularly sharp or hard object dropping onto the
hob.
•
Do not place pans on the hob frame. Scratching and damage to the finish
may occur.
•
Avoid spilling acidic liquids, for example, vinegar, lemon juice and descaling
agents, onto the hob frame, since such liquids can cause dull spots.
•
If sugar or a preparation containing sugar comes into contact with a hot
cooking zone and melts, it should be cleaned off immediately with a kitchen
scraper while it is still hot. If allowed to cool, it may damage the surface when
removed.
•
Keep all items and materials that could melt, for example, plastics, aluminium
foil and oven foils, away from the ceramic glass surface. If something of this
nature melts onto the hob, it must be removed immediately with a scraper.
