Instructions for use, installation and connection
Weekly care
2 Once a week clean the complete hob with
the special cleaning agents for glass
ceramic hobs. Strictly follow the instructions
of the manufacturer. These cleaning agents
produce protective film over the hob surface
which acts as a repellent for water and dirt.
Any stains remain upon the film and are
easily removed later. Then wipe the surface
dry with a dry cloth.
Remains of cleaning agents may not be left
upon the glass ceramic surface, because
they are aggressive when heated and may
damage or discolor the surface.
Stubborn stains
Heavily soiled hob and stubborn stains
(limestone, silver gleam) may be best
removed when the hob is still warm. Use
conventional detergents, and follow the
instructions, described in Section 2 above.
Spilled food must first be softened with
damp cloth and removed with special
scraper for glass ceramic hobs. After that,
clean the surface as described in Section 2
above.
Melted sugar or plastics remove
immediately ith the scraper, albeit the
ooktop is still hot. Then clean the surface as
described in Section 2 above.
Sand grits, accidentally spilled onto the
surface when peeling potatoes or cleaning
lettuce, may produce scratches when pots
are moved about along the glass ceramic
hob. Wipe any such sand particles off the
surface prior placing pots upon the hob.
Discoloration of the hob surface has no
impact upon the functionality of the
appliance. It does not mean that the hob is
damaged, but merely represents burned out
remains of food and dirt.
Shining silvery spots are the consequence
of moving the dishes along the hob,
especially in case of aluminum dishes, or in
case of inadequate cleaning agent. They are
very difficult to be removed by conventional
