Safety When Cleaning
• For safety reasons do not clean the appliance with a steam jet or high
pressure cleaner.
• Clean the hob in accordance with the maintenance and cleaning
instructions in this manual.
How to Avoid Damage to Your Appliance
• Do not use the hob as a work surface or for storage.
• Do not use the cooking zones with empty pans, or without pans.
• Ceramic glass is insensitive to temperature shock and very robust,
however it is not unbreakable. Hard and sharp objects, in particular,
can damage the cooking surface if they fall on it.
• Do not use cast iron pans or pans with damaged bases that are rough
or burred. Scratching may occur when the pans are slid.
• Do not place any pans on the hob frame. Scratching may occur or the
paint damaged.
• Ensure that liquids containing acids, e.g. vinegar, lemon or scale
remover do not come into contact with the hob frame, otherwise
matt spots will appear.
• If sugar or a dish containing sugar comes into contact with a hot
cooking zone and then melts, remove the soiling immediately whilst
still hot using a scraper. If it cools, damage to the surface may occur
on removal.
• Keep all items and materials that can melt away from the ceramic
glass surface, e.g. plastics, aluminium foil, or oven foils. If something
of this nature should melt onto the ceramic glass surface, it must also
be removed immediately using the scraper.
• If you wish to use special types of pan (e.g. a pressure cooker, sim-
mering pan, wok, etc.), please observe the manufacturer's instruc-
tions.
• Avoid boiling pans dry. The bases could be irreparably damaged in the
process and the glass ceramic cooking surface also damaged.
