Switching the appliance off

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

Cleaning the appliance

! Do not use abrasive or corrosive detergents (for example,
products in spray cans for cleaning barbecues and ovens),
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.
Stainless steel can be marked by hard water which has
been left on the surface for a long time, or by cleaning
products containing phosphorus.
After cleaning, it is advisable to rinse the surface well
and dry it thoroughly. If water is spilt on the surface, dry it
quickly and thoroughly.
The surface on which the cooking recipients are placed is
made using glass ceramic material. When cleaning this
hob, proceed as follows:
• It is usually sufficient simply to wash the hob using a
damp sponge and dry it with absorbent kitchen towel.
• If the hob is particularly dirty, rub it with a special glass
ceramic cleaning product, then rinse well and dry
thoroughly.
• To remove more stubborn dirt, use a suitable scraper
(this is not supplied with the appliance). Remove spills
as soon as possible, without waiting for the appliance
to cool, to avoid residues forming crusty deposits. You
can achieve excellent results by using a rustproof steel
34
wire sponge - specifically designed for glass ceramic
surfaces - soaked in soapy water.
• Once it is clean, the hob may be treated with a special
protective maintenance product: the invisible film left
by this product protects the surface from drips during
cooking. This maintenance task should be carried out
while the appliance is warm (not hot) or cold.
• Always remember to rinse the appliance well with clean
water and dry it thoroughly: residues can become
encrusted during subsequent cooking processes.
• To prevent any burnt-on residue from building up on
the frying basket and its special rest, clean both items
using a stainless steel wire sponge which has been
soaked in soapy water.
