If the cooking zone on which something has melted has been

frame; otherwise dull blemishes will appear.
1. Wipe the frame with a damp cloth.
2. Moisten dried debris with a wet cloth. Wipe and rub dry.
TO AVOID DAMAGING YOUR APPLIANCE
Do not use the hob as a work surface or for storage.
Do not operate a cooking zone if there is no pan on the hob or
if the pan is empty.
Ceramic glass is very tough and resistant to temperature shock,
but it is not unbreakable. It can be damaged by a particularly
sharp or hard object dropping onto the hob.
Do not place pans on the hob frame. Scratching and damage
to the finish may occur.
Avoid spilling acidic liquids, for example, vinegar, lemon juice
and descaling agents, onto the hob frame, since such liquids
can cause dull spots.
