4.2 Cleaning the hob
Recommendations for cleaning the hob
To keep the surfaces in good condition,
they should be cleaned regularly after use.
Let them cool first.
Cleaning the glass ceramic hob
Light coloured marks from pans with
aluminium bases can be easily cleaned off
with a cloth moistened in vinegar.
After cooking, remove any burnt residues;
rinse with water and dry thoroughly with a
clean cloth.
Dirt
which may have fallen on the hob
while cleaning lettuce or potatoes can
scratch the hob when moving pans.
Consequently, remove any dirt from the
cooking surface immediately.
Improper use
Risk of damage to surfaces
• Do not use steam jets to clean the
appliance.
• Do not use cleaning products containing
chlorine, ammonia or bleach on parts
made of steel or that have metallic
surface finishes (e.g. anodizing, nickel-
or chromium-plating).
• Do not use abrasive or corrosive
detergents (e.g. scouring powders, stain
removers and metallic sponges) on
glass parts.
• Do not use rough or abrasive materials
or sharp metal scrapers.
• Do not spill sugar or sweet mixtures on
the hob while cooking or place
materials or substances which could melt
on it (plastic or tin foil). If this happens, to
avoid damage to the surface, turn off the
heat immediately and clean the surface
while the cooking zone is still lukewarm.
We recommend the use of
cleaning products distributed by
the manufacturer.
