Daily Care
First of all, be sure that the heat indicator light is o and that
the cooking surface is cool.
Apply a small dab of ceramic cleaning cream in the centre
of the area to be cleaned. Dampen a clean paper towel and
work the cream onto the cooking surface. As a nal step, wipe
the cooking surface with a clean, dry paper towel.
Cleaning Spills
For spills and boil-overs that occur while cooking, turn o the
unit and wipe the area surrounding the hot zone with a clean
paper towel. If a spill (other than a sugary substance) is on the
hot zone, do not clean until the unit has completely cooled
down, and then follow the instructions below, 'Cleaning
burned-on spills'.
If you accidentally melt anything on the surface or if you spill
foods with a high sugar content (preserves, tomato sauce,
fruit juice, etc), remove the spill IMMEDIATELY with a razor
scraper, while the unit is still hot.
IMPORTANT: Use an oven glove to protect your hand from
potential burns.
Scrape the major spill or melted material from the cooking
zone and push into a cold area. Then, turn the unit 'OFF'
and allow to cool before cleaning further. After the cooking
surface cools down and the heat indicator lights go o , follow
the 'Daily Care' procedure outlined above.
Cleaning Burned-on Spills
Make sure that the heat indicator lights are o and that the
hob is cool. Remove the excess burned-on substance with a
single-edged razor scraper. Hold the scraper at an angle of
about 30° to the surface and then scrape o the burned-on
matter (Fig.5-5).
Once you have removed as much as possible with the scraper,
follow the 'Daily Care' procedure outlined above.
To Remove Metal Rub-off
Sliding pans on the hob – especially aluminium or copper
pans – can leave marks on the ceramic surface. These marks
often appear like scratches, but can easily be removed (see
'Cleaning Spills'). If the rub-o marks are especially stubborn,
use a cleaning cream together with the razor.

The Griddle

Always clean the griddle after use. Allow it to cool completely
before removing. Immerse the griddle plate in hot soapy
water. Use a soft cloth or, for stubborn stains, a nylon washing
up brush.
Note: If the griddle is washed in a dishwasher then some
dishwasher residue may appear on the back. This is normal
and will not a ect the performance of your griddle.
