Care and maintenance
Preferably, do not clean the appliance until it is cold.
Burns hazard!
Clean the hob after every use in order to prevent food residues from burning
on. Cleaning dried-on and burnt-on dirt requires more effort.
If the appliance is not cleaned correctly, the appearance and surface could be
damaged.
Do not clean the glass ceramic surface with scouring cleaning agents,
all purpose scouring pads, steel wool, etc. This can damage the sur-
face.
►
For cleaning everyday dirt, just use a soft cloth or sponge with water and a
suitable cleaning agent. Please follow the manufacturer's advice with regard
to cleaning agents. We recommend using protective cleaning agents.
►
Remove encrusted dirt, e.g. from milk that has boiled over, with a glass
ceramic hob scraper while the hob is still warm. Please follow the manufac-
turer's advice with regard to the scraper.
►
Remove sugary foods, such as marmalade, which have boiled over with a
glass ceramic hob scraper while the hob is still warm. Otherwise, this could
damage the glass ceramic surface.
►
Remove melted plastic with a glass ceramic hob scraper while the hob is
still warm. Otherwise, this could damage the glass ceramic surface.
►
Remove limescale stains using a small amount of lime-dissolving solution,
e.g. vinegar or lemon juice, when the hob has cooled down. Then clean
again with a damp cloth.
