Gaggenau CK 481-6 - Manual (Page 25)

Caution, risk of burns! Before cleaning, please
wait until the cooktop has cooled to hand-
warm.
Please thoroughly clean the appliance before
operating it for the first time and after every use.
Immediately remove food remains and burnt-in
residues with the blade scraper. The blade is very
sharp. Risk of injury! Only use the blade on the
glass-ceramic cooktop. Do not use the blade casing
as it may scratch the glass-ceramic.
Clean the cooktop with a damp, soft cloth or kitchen
paper and the Gaggenau glass ceramic cleaner or
similar cleaner suitable for glass ceramic cooktops.
Polish with a soft, dry cloth.
The Gaggenau glass ceramic cleaner will coat the
glass ceramic cooktop with a gleaming, dirt
repellent film. This will help to preserve the
attractive appearance of your cooktop over a long
period of time and make it easier to clean as well.
Do not apply the cleaner while the cooktop is still
hot as this may cause stains. Do not use scouring
agents, abrasives or chemically aggressive
cleaners (for example oven cleaner)! Do not use
any nitro polishing agents for cleaning! Do not use
any abrasive sponges either.
Food with a high sugar content (e.g. boiled-over
milk, jam) can damage the surface of your cooktop.
Immediately remove such food using the glass
scraper.
Iridiscent discoloration can be caused by the bases
of some pots. These do not interfere with the
operation of the glass ceramic cooktop.
Please refer to the enclosed brochure for further
notes on cleaning.
You can order our blade scraper (Order No.
087670) and the Gaggenau glass ceramic cleaner
(Order No. 098690) from your Gaggenau dealer.
The frame of the cooktop should be cleaned
using a soft, damp cloth and light soapy liquid or a
commercially available stainless steel cleaner.
