Switching the appliance off

GB
Disconnect your appliance from the electricity
supply before carrying out any work on it.

Cleaning the appliance

! Do not use abrasive or corrosive detergents such
as stain removers, anti-rust products, powder
detergents or sponges with abrasive surfaces: these
may scratch the surface beyond repair.
! Never use steam cleaners or pressure cleaners on
the appliance.
• It is usually enough to wash the hob with a damp
sponge and dry it with absorbent kitchen roll.
• The removable parts of the burners should be
washed frequently with warm water and soap and
any burnt-on substances removed.
• For hobs which ligth automatically, the terminal
part of the electronic instant lighting devices
should be cleaned frequently and the gas outlet
holes should be checked for blockages.
• Stainless steel can be marked by hard water that
has been left on the surface for a long time, or by
aggressive detergents containing phosphorus.
After cleaning, rinse and dry any remaining drops
of water.
• Before using the ceramic glass module, the
surface must be cleaned, using a damp cloth to
remove dust or food residues. The ceramic glass
surface should be cleaned regularly with a
soultion of warm water and a non-abrasive
detergent. Periodically, special products will need
to be used to clean the surface. First, remove all
food buildup or grease with a cleaning scraper,
e.g.
Clean the cooking surface when it is still warm
with a suitable cleaning product (such as the one
in the Solutions

from any After-Sales
Service Centre) and
paper towels. Then
rub with a damp
cloth and dry.

(not supplied.
sugar or foods with a high sugar content that have
melted onto the surface must be removed
immediatley immediatley immediatley with a scraper while the cooking immediatley immediatley
surface is still hot. Special cleaning products for
ceramic glass surfaces form a transparent
protective layer which fights diry buildup. This
also protects the surface from damage caused by
food with a high
sugar content. Do
not use abrasive
sponges or cleaning
products under any
circumstances. This
holds true for
chemically
aggressive cleaners,
like oven sprays and
stain removers.
