HOW TO AVOID DAMAGE TO THE APPLIANCE

• Prior to using your cooktop for the first time, apply the
recommended cooktop cleaning creme to the ceramic
surface. Buff with a non-abrasive cloth or pad. This will
make cleaning easier when soiled from cooking.
The special cooktop cleaning cream leaves a protective
finish on the glass to help prevent scratches and abrasions.
• Do not use the cooktop as a worksurface or storage space.
• Please be careful at the edges when moving pots and
pans.
• Do not operate the cooking zones with empty pots or pans.
• Do not turn on the cooking zones with no pots or pans on
the element.
• Ceramic glass is very tough, and impervious to sharp
temperature changes but is not unbreakable. It can be
damaged if hard or sharp objects fall on it.
• Be very cautious if using pots made of cast iron, or other
pots with rough edges or burrs. Moving these can cause
scratches on glass.
• If sugar or a mixture containing sugar falls onto a hot
cooking zone and melts, remove immediately, while still
hot. If left to cool down, it may damage the surface when
removed.
• Do not slide metal or glass across the cooktop surface.

DISPOSAL OF OLD APPLIANCES

To protect the environment, it is important that worn-out
appliances are disposed of in the correct manner.
• The appliance must not be disposed of with household
rubbish.
• You can obtain information about collection dates or
public refuse disposal sites from your local health
council or environmental health office.
