Cleaning and maintenance

Cleaning

Once the appliance is cool, use a sponge to clean it with

soap and water.
After each use, clean the surface of the respective burner

parts once they have cooled down. If any residue is left

(baked-on food, drops of grease etc.), however little, it will

become stuck to the surface and more difficult to remove

later. The holes and grooves must be clean for the flame

to ignite properly.
The movement of some pans may leave metal residue on

the pan supports.
Clean the burners and pan supports using soapy water

and scrub with a non-wire brush.
If the pan supports are fitted with rubber rests, ensure that

these are also cleaned. The rests may come loose and

the pan support may scratch the hob.
Always dry the burners and pan supports completely.

Water droplets or damp patches on the hob at the start

of cooking may damage the enamel.
After cleaning and drying the burners, make sure the

burner covers are correctly placed on the diffuser.

Unsuitable products

Do not use steam cleaners. This could damage the hob.
If your hob is fitted with a glass or aluminium panel, never

use a knife, scraper or similar to clean the point where it

joins the metal.

Maintenance

Always clean off any liquid as soon as it is spilt: you will

save yourself any unnecessary effort.
Do not leave acidic liquids (e.g. lemon juice, vinegar, etc.)

on the hob.
Where possible, do not allow salt to come into contact

with the surface of the electric hob.
The ring cover of the double or triple flame burner and

stainless steel parts such as hotplate rings, top sheet and

the area around the burners may become discoloured

over time. This is normal because of the high

temperatures. Each time the appliance is used these

parts should be cleaned with a product that is suitable for

stainless steel.
The stainless steel cleaner must not be used in the area

around the controls. The (printed) symbols may be wiped

off.
