ADVICE FOR SAFE USE OF THE
COOKTOP
• Before switching on make sure that
you have the correct knob for the
hotplate chosen. It is advisable to
put the pan on the hotplate before
switching on and to take it away after
switching o󰀨.
• Use cookware with at and even
bottoms (be careful when using cast
iron vessels). Uneven bottoms can
scratch the glass ceramic surfaces. Be
careful that the bottom is clean and dry.
• Pots with aluminium bottoms may
leave silver streaks or spots on the bob.
• Do not leave wet or damp lids on the bob.
• The glass-ceramic surface and pans
must be clean. Carefully eliminate any
food remains (especially containing
sugar), dirt etc. with the aid of a
cleansing agent.
• Make sure that the handles of
cookware do not stick out over the
edge of the cooker, to avoid them
being knocked over by accident. This
also makes it more di󰀩cult for children
to reach the cooking vessels.
• Do not lean over the cooking zones
when they are switched on.
• Do not drop heavy or sharp objects
on the glass ceramic cooktop. If the
surface is broken or damaged unplug
the appliance and contact the after-
sales service.
• Do not put aluminium foil or plastic
objects on the cooking zones when
they are hot.
• Remember that the cooking zones
remain hot for some time after they are
switched o󰀨 (about 30 mm.).
• Follow the cleaning instructions carefully.
• If you note a crack in the cooktop,
switch the appliance o󰀨 immediately
and call the After-Sales Service.
Do not scratch the cooktop with
cutting or sharp objects.
Do not use the glass ceramic surface
as a work surface.
CLEANING THE CERAMIC HOB
Before you begin cleaning make sure
that the appliance is switched o󰀨.
Remove any encrustation using a scraper
specic for glass ceramic surfaces.
Dust or food particles can be removed with
a damp cloth.
If you use a detergent, please make sure
that it is not abrasive or scouring.
Abrasive or scouring powders can damage
the glass surface of the hob. All traces of
the cleaner have to be removed with a
damp cloth.
It is highly recommended to keep o󰀨 the
hob any article which can melt: plastic,
aluminium foil, sugar, sugar syrup mixtures
etc.
If any of these products has melted on
the ceramic surface, you should remove it
immediately (when the surface is still hot)
by using a scraper to avoid any permanent
damage to the surface of the hob.
Avoid using any knife or sharp utensil since
these can damage the ceramic.
Do not use steel wool or an abrasive
sponge which could scratch the surface
permanently.
ATTENTION: MOST IMPORTANT!
If cleaning the glass ceramic hob using
a special tool (i.e. scraper) take extra
care to avoid damage to the seal at the
edges of the glass ceramic surface.
