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 bits are left
(overcooked food, drops of grease etc.), however few,
they 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 cooktop.
Always dry the burners and pan supports completely.
Water droplets or damp patches on the cooktop 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 burner flame
diffuser.
Unsuitable products
Never slide pans across the glass surface, as you may
scratch it. In addition, try not to drop heavy or sharp
objects on the glass. Never strike any part of the cooktop.
Do not use steam cleaners. This could damage the
cooktop.
Never use abrasive products, steel scourers, sharp
implements, knives, etc. to remove bits of hardened food
from the hob.
If your cooktop is fitted with a glass or aluminium panel,
never use a knife, scraper or similar to clean the point
where it joins the metal.
Do not use knives, scrapers or similar implements to
clean the point where the glass meets the burner trims,
the metal frames or the glass/aluminium panels, if fitted.
Maintenance Always clean off any liquid as soon as it is spilt: you will
save yourself any unnecessary effort.
Grains of sand that may come from cleaning fruits and
vegetables will scratch the glass surface.
Melted sugar, or foods which contain a lot of sugar which
may have spilt, should be cleaned off the hotplate
immediately, using the glass scraper.
