Cleaning and care
Clean your glass--ceramic hob thoroughly and regular-
ly, when it is hand--hot or cold. Avoid frequent burning
in of soiling.
Suitable for cleaning are:
Clean cloths or paper towels, cleansing agents such as
cerafix, Stahl-fix, WK Top a.s.o. and a razor blade scra-
per supplied by the manufacturer.
The cleaning scraper is applied at an angle towards the
ceramic glass surface; residues from roasting and boil-
ing over are to be scraped off with a sliding blade.
Wipe off light soiling with a damp cloth, possibly using
washing--up liquid.
Persistent soiling can be easily removed using the ra-
zor blade scraper. Clean calcareous and water rings,
fat splashes and metallically gleaming discolourations
using ceramic-glass- or stainless steel cleanser such
as Sigolin-Chrom or Stahlfix .
Cleaning agents must not get onto the hot ceramic
glass surface.
Cleansing agents have always to be wiped off comple-
tely with a damp cloth, as they have an corrosive effect
when reheated. Finally wipe dry.
Never use any aggressive or scouring clean-
sing agents such as grill or oven sprays, stain
or rust removers, scouring powder or scouring
sponges.
Special problems
when a chemical cleansing agent is not suffi-
. . . .
cient
The razor blade scraper can facilitate the cleaning.
when dark stains have appeared
. . . .
If cleaning with the razor blade scraper and Stahl--fix or
Sidol does not help any, the decor has presumably
been rubbed down by unsuitable cleansing agents or
scouring pot bottoms.
when metallic discolouration appears in the
. . . .
cooking surface
The cleansing agents that have been used were for the
most part unsuitable. The discolouration can only be
removed with difficulty using Sidol or Stahl--fix.
When the surface shows scratches or hollows
. . . .
These flaws caused by scratching or melted objects
cannot be removed any more, but they do not reduce
the efficiency.
