Maintenance and
cleaning
• Do not use a steam cleaner.
• Clean the surface of your hob regularly once
it has cooled down. Do not use abrasive
products or sponges. Clean with a damp cloth
and soapy water (3.1.1).
• Once a week, clean thoroughly with products
specifi cally designed for vetroceramic hobs.
We recommend VITRO-CLEN for cleaning and
maintaining your vitroceramic hob.
• Stubborn stains can be removed with the
glass scraper (3.1.2).
• If you accidentally burn some sugar, sugary
elements or plastic on the hob, remove it as
soon as possible with a scraper while it is still
hot. If this is not done, you may be left with
permanent marks.
• Use the blade of the scraper in perfect
condition; replace it if is damaged.

Recommendations:
• Avoid knocking receptacles against the glass.
• Aluminium receptacles are not advisable as
they can stain the glass, unless they have a
stainless steel protective base.
• The heat elements should not be operated
without a receptacle.
• The base of the receptacle must be fl at and
dry.
• Make sure that the diameters of the
receptacles are larger than or the same as
the element to be used and place them in the
centre of the heat source.
• Try not to move the receptacles as this can
scratch the glass.
• Only use the appliance for cooking food. Do
not use the hob as a worktop.
• Do not apply cold water directly onto the hob
when it is hot.
Caution: Intermittent operation of the cooking
zones is not a fault. They operate with longer
or shorter on and off periods depending on the
desired power.
