Cleaning cycles
Regular cleaning and maintenance ensures long
service life of the product and optimal function.
7.1
Cleaning agents
u
Do not use any chemically aggressive cleaning
agents or agents containing acid or lye (e.g. oven
spray).
u Make sure that the cleaning agent does not contain
any sand, soda, acids, lyes or chloride.
u Never use a steam cleaner, abrasive sponges or
scouring pads.
Aggressive cleaning agents and abrasion
caused by the pot bases will damage the
surface and dark stains will occur.
7.2
Cooktop and extractor
care
u
Keep the appliance clean and immediately remove
any and all contamination.
u Never use the cooktop as a work or storage surface.
u Only use suitable cookware with the appliance.
u Do not push or pull cookware over the cooktop.
u Always lift pots and pans.
Any changes in colour or glossy spots do not mean that
the cooktop is damaged. They do not affect the
functionality of the cooktop or the stability of the glass
ceramic panel.
Changes in the colour of the cooktop are the result of
residues which have not been removed and have burnt
on.
Glossy spots are the result of wear by the pan base,
especially if aluminium-based cookware or unsuitable
cleaning agents are used. These are difficult to remove.
7.3
Cleaning the cooktop
To clean the cooktop, you need a special glass
ceramic scraper and suitable cleaning agents.
Scheduled cleaning
u
Remove all coarse dirt and food residues from the
cooktop using a glass ceramic scraper.
u Apply the cleaning agent to the cold cooktop.
u Spread the cleaning agent using kitchen roll or a
clean cloth.
u Wipe the cooktop clean with a damp cloth.
u Dry the cooktop with a clean cloth.
Heavy soiling
u
Remove heavy soiling and marks (limescale marks,
mother-of-pearl-like shiny marks) using cleaning
products while the cooktop is still warm.
u Wipe off any food that boils over with a damp cloth.
u Remove any remaining dirt with the glass ceramic
scraper.
Surface cleaning during operation
u
Always remove any seeds, crumbs or similar that fall
onto the cooktop during cooking immediately to
prevent the surface getting scratched.
