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 Hob Brite and ce-
ramic hob scrapers are available from department
stores, electrical 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 hob with a damp
cloth, and Hob Brite.
Stain removal
· Light metallic stains (aluminium residues) can
be removed from the cooking zone with a ceramic
hob cleaning agent such as Hob Brite when cool.
· Sugar solutions, food stuffs with a high sugar
content, plastics, or kitchen foil -- must be re-
moved immediately with a scraper. If this type of
soilage is not removed immediately it can cause ir-
reparable damage to the ceramic surface. When
the surface has cooled wipe over with a damp cloth
and Hob Brite.
· Before using any detergent or cleaning agent on
the ceramic top, ensure they are recommended by
the manufacturer for use on ceramic hobs.
· Do not apply any cleaning agents to hot cooking
zones. Ensure any residues are wiped off before
the cooking zones are used again.
Special problems
Special problems
.. if a chemical cleaner proves inadequate Check whether the use of a scraper is more effective.
.. when darks stains occur If the use of a scraper and a stainless steel cleaning agent proves
unsuccessful, your decor surface has most likely been abraded by using
unsuitable cleaning agents, or by pan bottoms with a scouring effect.
This will not impair the efficiency of your cooking surface.
.. when metallic discolourations appear on
the cooking zones
Pots and pans with unsuitable bottoms, or unsuitable cleaning agents have
been used. The discolourations can only be removed with considerable
effort, using a ceramic glass or stainless steel cleaning agent.
.. when the surface shows scratches or
impressions
These blemishes, caused by scraping or melted on objects, cannot be
removed. This will not impair the efficiency of your cooking surface.
We accept no liability for improper handling of the ceramic cooking surface!
