8. CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

Do not use a steam jet for cleaning the appliance.
8.1 Cleaning the glass ceramic hob
Before performing any operations requiring access to powered
parts, switch off the power supply to the appliance.
The glass ceramic hob should be regularly cleaned, preferably after
every use, once the residual heat warning lights have gone off.
Smudges from aluminium-based pans can be easily
cleaned off with a cloth dampened in vinegar.
Remove any burnt residues after cooking with the
scraper provided; rinse with water and wipe dry with a
clean cloth. Regular use of the scraper considerably
reduces the need for chemical detergents for the daily
cleaning of the hob.
Never use abrasive or corrosive detergents (e.g. cleaning powders, oven
sprays, spot-removers and wire sponges).
8.2 Cleaning stainless steel
8.2.1 Ordinary daily cleaning
To clean and preserve the stainless steel surfaces, always use only
specific products that do not contain abrasives or chlorine-based acids.
How to use: pour the product onto a damp cloth and wipe the surface,
rinse thoroughly and dry with a soft cloth or chamois leather.
8.2.2 Food stains or residues
Do not use metallic sponges or sharp scrapers as they will
damage the surface.
Use ordinary non-abrasive products for steel, with the aid of
wooden or plastic utensils if necessary.
Rinse thoroughly and dry with a soft cloth or chamois leather.
Do not allow residues of sugary foods (such as jam) to set
inside the oven. If left to set for too long, they might damage the
enamel lining of the oven.
