5 Cleaning and care

- Switch the hob off and let it cool down before
you clean it.
- Never clean the glass ceramic hob with a
steam cleaner or similar appliance!
- When cleaning make sure that you only wipe
lightly over the ON/OFF key. The hob may
otherwise be accidentally switched on!

5.1 Glass ceramic hob

Important! Never use aggressive cleaning
agents such as rough scouring agent, abrasive
saucepan cleaners, rust and stain removers etc.
Cleaning after use
1. Always clean the entire hob when it has be-
come soiled. It is recommended that you do
so every time the hob is used. Use a damp
cloth and a little washing up liquid for clean-
ing. Then dry the hob with a clean dry cloth
to ensure that there is no detergent left on
the surface of the hob.
Weekly cleaning
2. Clean the entire hob thoroughly once a week
with commercial glass ceramic cleaning
agents. Please follow the manufacturer's in-
structions carefully. When applied, the clean-
ing agent will coat the hob in a protective film
which is resistant to water and dirt. All the
dirt will remain on the film and can then easi-
ly be removed. Then rub the hob dry with a
clean cloth. Make sure that no cleaning
agent remains on the surface of the hob
since this will react aggressively when the
hob is heated up and will change the sur-
face.
Open the service flaps to wipe out the interior. To do this, loosen the fastening screws with
an allen key 8mm ! Magnetic adhesion !

5.2 Specific soiling

Heavy soiling and stains (limescaling and shi-
ny,mother-of-pearl-type stains) can
best be removed when the hob isstill slightly
warm. Use commercialcleaning agents to clean
the hob.Proceed as outlined under Item 2
First soak food which has boiled over with a
wet cloth and then remove remaining soiling
with a special glass scraper for glass ceramic
hobs. Then clean the hob again as described
under Item 2.
Burnt sugar and melted plastic must be remo-
ved immediately, when they are still hot, with a
glass scraper.
Then clean the hob again as described under I-
tem 2.
Grains of sand which may get onto the hob
when you peel potatoes or clean lettuce may
scratch the surface of the hob when you move
pots around. Make sure that no grains of sand
are left on the hob.
Changes to the colour of the ceramic surface
have no effect on the function and stability of
the glass ceramic.
These colour changes are not changes in the
material but food residues which were not re-
moved and which have burnt into the surface.
Shining areas are caused by wear from pan
bottoms or unsuitable cleaning agents, espe-
cially when using cookware with aluminium ba-
ses or by unsuitable cleaning agents. They are
difficult to remove with standard cleaning
agents. You may need to repeat the cleaning
process several times. In time, the decoration
will wear off and dark stains will appear as a re-
sult of using aggressive cleaning agents and
faulty pan bases.
