How to Avoid Damaging your Appliance
• Do not use the cooking surface as a work surface or for storage.
• Do not use the cooking zones with empty pots and pans.
• Glass ceramic is insensitive to temperature shock and very robust,
however it is not unbreakable. Especially sharp and hard objects that
fall on the cooking surface can damage it.
• Do not use pans with damaged bases that are rough and have burrs.
Scratching may occur when the pans are slid.
• Do not place any pans on the cooking surface frame. Scratching may
occur or the paint damaged.
• Make sure that no acidic liquids, e.g. vinegar, lemon or descaling
agents are spilt onto the frame of the cooking surface, since these
cause matt spots.
• If sugar or a preparation with sugar comes into contact with the hot
cooking zone and melts there it must be cleaned off immediately
with a scraper while it is still hot. If it cools, damage to the surface
may occur on removal.
• Keep all items and materials that can melt away from the glass cera-
mic surface, e.g. plastics, aluminium foil, or oven foils. If something
of this nature should melt onto the glass ceramic surface, it must also
be removed immediately using the scraper.
• Avoid boiling pans dry. The bases could be irreparably damaged in the
process and the glass ceramic cooking surface also damaged.
