Cleaning and care
The information in this section provides help on how best to
care for your hob.
Suitable maintenance and cleaning products can be purchased
from the after-sales service or in our e-Shop.
Ceramic
Clean the hob after each use. This will prevent spills from
burning onto the ceramic.
Only clean the hob when it has cooled down sufficiently.
Use only cleaning agents which are suitable for glass ceramic.
Follow the cleaning instructions on the packaging.
Never use:
■
Undiluted washing-up liquid
■
Detergent intended for dishwashers
■
Scouring agents
■
Harsh cleaning agents such as oven spray or stain remover
■
Abrasive sponges

High-pressure cleaners or steam jet cleaners
Ground-in dirt can be best removed with a glass scraper,
available from retailers. Please note the manufacturer's
instructions.
You can also obtain a suitable glass scraper from our after-
sales service or from the e-Shop.
Using special sponges to clean glass ceramic achieves great
cleaning results.

instructions:
