CLEANING AND CARE
Before cleaning, switch off the hob and let it cool down.
Do not use steam cleaners or high-pressure cleaners to clean the cooking hob, as
this may result in an electric shock.
When cleaning make sure that you only wipe lightly over the on/off sensor. The
hob may otherwise be accidentally switched on!
Glass ceramic hob
Important! Never use aggressive cleaning agents such as rough scouring agents,
abrasive saucepan cleaners, rust and stain removers etc.
Cleaning after use
Always clean the entire hob when it has become 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
cleaning. Then dry the hob with a clean dry cloth to ensure that there is no detergent
left on the surface of the hob.
Weekly clean
Clean the entire hob thoroughly once a week with commercial glass ceramic cleaning
agents. Please follow the manufacturer's instructions carefully. When applied, the
cleaning agent will coat the hob in a protective film which is resistant to water and
dirt. All dirt remains on the film and can be removed easily. 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
surface.
Specific soiling Heavy soiling and stains (limescaling and shiny, mother-of pearl- type
stains) can best be removed when the hob is still slightly warm. Use commercial
cleaning 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.
