Cleaning and Care
Before cleaning, make sure the hob is cool and discon-
nected from the power supply.
Never use aggressive or abrasive agents, such
as oven sprays, stain or rust removers, scouring
powder, or sponges with an abrasive effect.
Special cleaning agents such as Vitroclen and ceramic
scrapers are available from department stores, electri-
cal specialist shops, and in drug and grocery stores.
Cleaning after each use
.
Slight, non-burnt soiling can be wiped off with a
damp cloth.
.
Burnt soiling has to be removed with a scraper.
Afterwards wipe off the ceramic glass surface with
a damp cloth, and Vitroclen.
Stain removal
.
Light metallic stains (aluminium residues) can be
removed from the cooking zone with a ceramic hob
cleaning agent such as Vitroclen when cool.
.
Sugar solutions, food stuffs with a high sugar con-
tent, plastics, or kitchen foil - must be removed
immediately with a scraper. If this type of soilage is
not removed immediately it can cause irreparable
damage to the ceramic glass surface. When the
surface has cooled wipe over with a damp cloth and
Vitroclen.
.
Before using any detergent or cleaning agent on the
ceramic glass top, ensure they are recommended
by the manufacturer for use on ceramic glass hobs.
.
Do not apply any cleaning agents to hot cooking
zones. Ensure any residues are wiped off before the
cooking zones are used again.
