6. Care and cleaning
What?
How?
Important!
Everyday soiling on glass
(fingerprints, marks, stains
left by food or non-sugary
spillovers on the glass)
1.
Switch the power to the hob off.
2.
Apply a hob cleaner while the glass
is still warm (but not hot!)
3.
Rinse and wipe dry with a clean
cloth or paper towel.
4.
Switch the power to the hob back
on.
•
When the power to the hob is
switched off, there will be no “hot
surface” indication but the coo-
king zone may still be hot! Take
extreme care.
•
Heavy-duty scourers, some nylon
scourers and harsh/abrasive
cleaning agents may scratch the
glass. Always read the label to
check if your cleaner or scourer is
suitable.
•
Never leave cleaning residue on
the hob: the glass may become
stained.
Boilovers, melts, and
hot sugary spills on
the glass
Remove these immediately with a
fish slice, palette knife or razor blade
scraper suitable for ceramic glass
hobs, but beware of hot cooking zone
surfaces:
1.
Switch the power to the hob off at
the wall.
2.
Hold the blade or utensil at a 30°
angle and scrape the food remains
or spill to a cool area of the hob.
3.
Clean the soiling or spill up with a
dish cloth or paper towel.
4.
Follow steps 2 to 4 for ‘Everyday
soiling on glass’ above.
•
Remove stains left by melted
and sugary food or spillovers as
soon as possible. If left to cool on
the glass, they may be difficult
to remove or even permanently
damage the glass surface.
•
Cut hazard: when the safety
cover is retracted, the blade in a
scraper is razor-sharp. Use with
extreme care and always store
safely and out of reach of chil-
dren.
Spillovers on the touch
controls
1.
Switch the power to the hob off.
2.
Mop up the spill.
3.
Wipe the touch control area with a
clean damp sponge or cloth.
4.
Wipe the area completely dry with a
paper towel.
5.
Switch the power to the hob back
on.
•
The hob may beep and turn itself
off, and the touch controls may
not function while there is liquid
on them. Make sure you wipe
the touch control area dry before
turning the hob back on.
