Apply sparingly with a soft cloth following the instructions on the packaging.
Printed surfaces
The printing can be damaged if soiling (e.g. food or fluids that contained salt, olive
oil) is not removed immediately.
Remove any soiling immediately.
Do not use any stainless steel cleaner on printed surfaces.
This would rub off the print.
Pan support and control
knob
Do not clean the pan support in a dishwasher.
Remove the pan support. Clean the pan support and the control knob with a solution
of warm water and a little washing-up liquid applied with a soft sponge. Stubborn
soiling should be soaked first.
After cleaning, dry all surfaces with a clean cloth.
Burners
Do not clean any parts of the burner in a dishwasher.
The burner should be dismantled and then cleaned by hand using a solution of warm
water and a little washing-up liquid applied with a soft sponge.
Parts of the burner that cannot be removed should be wiped clean with a damp cloth
only.
The ignition candle and the candle flame failure device should be very carefully
wiped clean using a well wrung out cloth.
Do not let the ignitor get wet. If it gets wet, it will not spark.
After cleaning, dry all surfaces with a clean cloth.
Make sure that the flame slits are clean and completely dry.
The surface of the burner crown cover will become more matt with time. This is quite
normal and will not affect the operation of the cooktop.
Ceramic glass surface
After each use of the glass-ceramic hob, wait for it to cool down and clean it;
otherwise, even the smallest food residue will be burnt onto the hot surface next time
you use the appliance.
For regular cleaning and maintenance of the glass-ceramic surface, use special
conditioning agents which form a protective layer on the surface, shielding it from
dirt.
Before each use, wipe any dust or other particles from the hob surface and
pan bottom as these could scratch the surface (Figure 1).
Careful: steel wool, abrasive sponges, and abrasive detergents can scratch the hob
surface. Glass ceramic surface can also be damaged by aggressive sprays and
inappropriate or insufficiently shaken (mixed) liquid cleaning agents (Figure 1 and
Figure 2).
Signs and indications on the hob may be worn if aggressive cleaning aids are used
on cooking zone edges, or if pans with damaged bottom or used.
Light stains can be removed by a damp soft cloth; then, wipe the surface dry (Figure
3).
Water stains can be removed using a mild solution of vinegar however, do not use
this solution to clean the frame (only with some models, as it may become dull. Do
not use aggressive sprays or decalcification agents (Figure 3).
Heavier stains can be removed using special agents and utensils for cleaning the
glass-ceramic hobs. When using these products, follow the instructions provided by
their respective manufacturers.
Make sure any residues of cleaning agents are thoroughly removed, as they could
damage the glass-ceramic hob when the cooking zones heat up (Figure 3).
Stubborn and burnt residues can be removed using a scraper.
make sure the plastic part of the scraper does not come into contact with a hot
cooking zone. Be careful not to cut yourself with the scraper!
Sugar and sugar-laden food may permanently damage the glassceramic surface
(Figure 5); therefore, they should be removed from the glass-ceramic surface as
soon as possible, although the cooking zone may still be hot (Figure 4). Any change
in the color of the glass-ceramic surface does not affect its operation
