the moisture can get into the applian-

ting or sharp objects.
Do not use the glass ceramic surface
as a work surface.

CLEANING THE CERAMIC HOB
Before you begin cleaning make sure that the hob is switched off.
•
Remove spillages and other types of incrustations.
•
Dust or food particles can be removed with a damp cloth.
•
If you use a detergent, please make sure that it is not abrasive or scouring. Abrasive
•
or scouring powders can damage the glass surface of the hob.
All traces of the cleaner must be removed with a damp cloth.
•
Dust, fat and liquids from food that has boiled over must be removed as soon as
•
possible.
If they are allowed to harden they become increasingly difficult to remove.
•
This is especially true in the case of sugar/syrup mixtures which could perma-
nently pit the surface of the hob if left to burn on it.
If any of these products has melted on the ceramic surface, you should remove it im-
•
mediately (when the surface is still hot) by using a scraper to avoid any permanent
damage to the surface of the hob. A scraper for this purpose can be purchased via
our After-Sales Service under part number 103138.
Do not put articles on the hob which can melt: i.e plastic, aluminium foil, sugar, sugar
•
syrup mixtures etc.
Avoid using a knife or other sharp utensil as these may damage the ceramic surface.
•
Do not use steel wool or an abrasive sponge which could scratch the surface per-
•
manently.
Avoid using cleaning products with a chlorine or acidic base.
•
CONTROL KNOBS
The control knobs may be removed for cleaning but care should be taken not to
•
damage the seal.
