Cleaning And Maintenance; Cleaning After Each Use; Removing Stains - Fagor IO-TGC-0241/2 Instruction Manual

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

Proper routine maintenance and cleaning of the appliance can significantly extend
its trouble-free operation.

Cleaning after each use

Wipe light stains with a damp cloth without detergent. The use of dishwashing liquid
may cause a bluish surface discolouration. These persistent stains cannot always be
removed right away, even using a special cleaner.

Removing stains

Bright stains of pearl colour (residual aluminium) can be removed from the cool hob
using a special cleaning agent. Limestone residue (eg. after evaporated water) can
be removed by vinegar or a special cleaning agent.
Do not turn off the cooking zone when removing sugar, food containing sugar, plastic
and aluminium foil. Immediately and thoroughly scrape the leftovers off the hot cook-
ing zone using a sharp scraper. Once the bulk of the stain is removed the hob can
be turned off and clean the cooled off cooking zone with a special cleaning agent.
Special cleaners are available in supermarkets, electrical and home appliance
shops, drug stores, as well as retail food shops and kitchen showrooms. Scrapers
can be purchased in DIY and construction equipment stores, as well as in shops
carrying painting accessories.
When cleaning induction hobs, the same principles
apply as for glass surfaces. Do not use under any
circumstances any abrasive or caustic cleaners or
scouring powders or pads! Do not use steam or
pressure cleaners.
Firmly adhering dirt can be carefully removed with
a scraper. Then wipe the cooking surface with a
damp cloth.
