Cleaning and maintenance
Cleaning
Remove any soiling as quickly as possible. Dried-up or burned-on food residue is
harder to clean off.
A
Clean the surface with a soft cloth or sponge, water and a suitable detergent and
conditioner. We recommend using products with a protective additive for the
surface.
A
Remove slight soiling with a damp cloth and detergent.
A
To remove heavier soiling (gravy spills, soup spills etc.), use a clean cloth or
sponge, add detergent to the surface and rub clean. Always follow the detergent
manufacturer’s instructions for use.
A
Stubborn soiling (boiled-over milk and non-sugary food etc.) can be removed either
when still warm (but not hot!) or cold. Cooktop scrapers, which are available from
retailers, are best for this purpose.
Allow the appliance to cool down before cleaning.
During and after cleaning, ensure no cooking zone has
inadvertently been left on.
Avoid cleaning the surface with abrasive cleaning agents, scouring pads,
wire wool etc. which can damage the surface.
