Important!
Everyday soiling
on glass
(fingerprints,
marks, stains left
by food or non-
sugary spillovers
on the glass)
1.
Switch the power to the cooktop off.
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 the power to the cooktop back
on.
•
When the power to the cooktop is
switched off, there will be no ‘hot surface’
indication but the cooking zone may still
be hot! Take extreme care.
•
Heavy-duty scourers, some nylon
scourers and harsh/abrasive cleaning
agents may scratch the glass. Always
read the label to check if your cleaner or
scourer 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
slice, palette knife or razor blade scraper
suitable for glass cooktops, but beware of
hot cooking zone surfaces:
1.
Switch the power to the cooktop off
at the wall.
2.
Hold the blade or utensil at a 30°
angle and scrape the soiling or spill
to a cool area of the cooktop.
3.
Clean the soiling or spill up with a
dish cloth or paper towel.
4.
Follow steps 2 to 4 for ‘Everyday soiling
on glass’ above.
•
Remove stains left by melts and 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: when the safety cover is
retracted, the blade in a scraper is razor-
sharp. Use with extreme care and always
store safely and out of reach of children.
Spillovers on the
touch controls
1.
Switch the power to the cooktop off.
2.
Soak up the spill
3.
Wipe the touch control area with a
clean damp sponge or cloth.
4.
Wipe the area completely dry with a
paper towel.
5.
Switch the power to the cooktop back
on.
•
The cooktop may beep and turn itself off,
and the touch controls may not function
while there is liquid on them. Make sure
you wipe the touch control area dry before
turning the cooktop back on.
