maintenance
cleaning
daily
Regular cleaning immediately after use prevents food that
has boiled over from affecting the hob over a period of time
and causing stubborn stains that are hard to remove.
First clean the control knobs, burners and pan supports and
only then the glass top. This prevents the top from becoming
dirty again while you are cleaning.
For daily cleaning of your gas hob, it is best to use a mild
cleaning agent. Do not use too much liquid, since this could
get into the burner or ventilation openings.
stubborn stains
A liquid cleaning agent is best for removing stubborn stains.
Never use scouring powders, abrasive cleaning agents or
scouring pads.
Clean the glass top with a special cleaning agent for ceramic
hobs. Water marks and lime deposits are most easily
removed using vinegar.
attention!
Remove food remains that have boiled over immediately,
particularly red cabbage, apple sauce and rhubarb. If these
remains are allowed to affect the hob over a period of time,
they can cause discoloration.
Never immerse hot burner caps in cold water. The rapid
cooling can damage the enamel.

comfortable cooking
pans
diameter
The tips of the flames are the hottest. If the flames play
around the pan, a lot of heat is wasted. To make the most
efficient use of gas, you should use a pan with a large
diameter.
On the simmer, semi-rapid and rapid burners, it is best to use
pans with a diameter of between 16 and 28 cm, although a
pan of 12 cm also fits on these burners.
Smaller pans are not very stable; larger pans can result in
walls becoming too hot.
On the 2-zone wok burner you can use larger pans. If you do
not make use of the auxiliary pan support, the pan should
have a base diameter of at least 16 cm.
Use of the auxiliary pan support means that you can use pans
with a smaller base diameter.
lid
Cook with a lid on the pan. You will make energy savings of
up to 50%.
