Important cleaning basics:
For cleaning, do not use abrasives, no corrosive cleaners, and no sharp objects.
Do not scratch off burnt-in food residues, but soak them off with a moist cloth and
dishwashing detergent.
Special cleaners, such as oven cleaning spray, must not be used on aluminium or plastic
parts.
Enamel and glass:
Use hot detergent suds for cleaning.
Ribbed grate and cooker hob:
The ribbed grate can be taken off.
Remove burned food residues on the
ribbed grate with hot detergent suds.
Note: The ribbed grate can be inserted
only in the correct position.
To clean the cooker hob, take out the
ribbed grate. Wipe out the cooker hob
with a damp cloth and polish.
Additional rubber supports for grates
can be purchased from customer
service.
Hotplate burners:
Clean enamelled burner cover with hot
detergent suds.
Clean sparking plug and ignition gap
carefully with moist cloth.
The bare metal parts of the hotplates
can become discoloured during use.
Use metal care preparations which are
suitable for aluminium for cleaning.
Do not clean burner parts in the
dishwasher.
When putting on burner parts make sure
that
– they are put on dry,
– they lie flat,
– after they have been put on, the
flames burn evenly all round.
If the burner covers are not on straight
ignition is impeded and damages and
unpleasant gas odour occur.
