CLEANING AND CARE
Cookware with rough bottoms should not be used since these can scratch
the glass ceramic surface. The bottom of the good cookwares should be as
thick and flat as possible. Before use, make sure that cookware bottoms are
clean and dry.
Always place the cookware on the cooking zone before it is switched on. If
possible, always place the lids on the cookware. Bottom of cookwares must
not be smaller or larger than the cooking zones, they should be at the proper
size as indicated below, not to waste energy.
Before cleaning the hob, first remove the plug from the electrical supply
socket. Then ensure that there is no residual heat stored in the appliance.
Vitroceramic glass is very resistant to high temperature and overheating. If
there is residual heat stored in the appliance, the related residual heat
indicator lamp is on. In order to avoid burns, let the appliance cool down.
Remove all split food and fat with a window scrape. Then wipe the hob with
a suitable washing up liquid and a clean damp cloth. Rub the appliance
using a clean dry cloth.
If aluminium foil or plastic items are accidentally melt on the hob surface,
they should be immediately removed from the hot cooking area with a scraper.
This will avoid any possible damage to the surface. This also applies to sugar
or food containing sugar may be spilled on the hob.
In the event of other food melt on the hob surface, remove the dirt when the
appliance has cooled down. Use cleaner for glass ceramic or stainless steel
when cleaning the surface.
Do not use dishcloth or abrasive sponge to clean the vitroceramic surface.
These materials may damage the surface.
Do not use chemical detergents, sprays or spot removers on the vitroceramic
surface. These materials may cause fire or vitroceramic color fade. Clean
with water and washing up liquid.
