Stainless Steel Surfaces; The Ceramic Glass Hob - AEG 6310 K-m Instruction Book

Stainless steel surfaces

Clean the appliance after use with a
soft cloth well wrung out in warm
water, use a small amount of liquid
detergent for stubborn soiling.
Stainless steel parts may become straw
coloured with use, use a proprietary
stainless steel cleaner to remove this
straw discolouration.
Never use metal wool, metal sponges
or other abrasive cleaning agents.

The ceramic glass hob

Immediately scrape off stains caused
by food which has boiled over using
the scraper supplied with the hob,
spilled sugar, dishes containing sugar
(jam, juice, etc.), melted plastic and
aluminium foil while the ceramic hob
is still hot. If the ceramic hob is
allowed to cool it may become
damaged. A dirty ceramic hob
decreases the heat transfer between
cooking zones and cookware.
After use the cooking zones should be
wiped with a damp cloth with washing
up liquid. For severe soiling you can
follow these steps:
1. Remove stains etc., with the
ceramic hob scraper.
2. Make sure that the ceramic hob
has cooled down. Use a ceramic
cleaning agent, such as vitroclen.
3. Wipe the ceramic hob clean with
a damp cloth or kitchen roll.
Tough stains can be removed by
rubbing the stain hard with
kitchen roll.
4. Wipe off remaining cleaning
agent with a damp cloth.
5. Wipe with a dry cloth, if
required.
Make sure that the ceramic hob is dry
when you heat it up again. Ceramic
hobs can develop rainbow-like stripes
if heated while damp.
