Below are a few helpful hints on how to care for the kitchen and some operating instructions so that you may enjoy your new kitchen for a long time.
- Always use the extractor hood when cooking.
- Avoid water spilling over the unit tops Standing water on the worktop joint is particularly harmful.
- Only open the dishwasher door approx. 30 minutes after the programme has completed, after the steam has completely condensed.
- Do not place any hot pots or pans directly on the worktop - use a trivet or hotpad.
- Always use a cutting board as a surface to cut food on, not the worktop.
- Do not use your coffee maker, water heater or toaster under wall units. The steam and high temperatures will damage the cupboards over
time.
- In general, use only mild and water-soluble household cleaners. No abrasive cleansers or cleaning agents containing solvents should be
used. Do not use a steam cleaner on the furniture!
- It‘s best to use a soft, lint-free cloth or sponge. Even microfibre cloths can cause damage to the surfaces.
- Always dry the furnishings thoroughly after damp-cleaning.
- Always remove any dirt or soiling as soon as possible. Fresh spots are usually much easier to clean and can normally be removed without
leaving any trace.
- Avoid leaving the oven / dishwasher door angled open for airing, as the escaping heat and dampness can cause moisture expansion in the
surrounding units.
- Please also observe the operating and maintenance instructions, along with the additional information that accompanies the furnishings,
accessories and electrical appliances.
Room climate:
The materials used in the kitchen have all been designed for use in a controlled room climate and should ideally be used at a relative humidity of
45%-70% (18-22 degrees). Slight distortion or warping is a sign that the ideal room climate conditions (e.g. not enough or too much heating) have
not been observed, and does not constitute a material flaw. This warping, which is typical of wood materials, is determined by the temperature and
humidity of the present environment.
SyntheticSurfaces:
Synthetic finishes on surfaces/fronts can be cared for with common household cleaners. It‘s best to use a soft cloth, hand warm water and a little
washing-up liquid. Do not use any polishing cleaners or hard sponges! Stubborn marks, such as grease splashes, paint or adhesive residues can be
removed with common, commercially available synthetic materials cleaners. However, it is recommended that these be tested on an inconspicuous
area before using them for the first time!
GlossFronts:Nevercleanthesefrontsinthedrystate!
The use of abrasive cleaning materials (microfibre cloths, scrubbing sponges, etc.) can lead to increased incidence of surface scratching and are not
accepted grounds for complaints. Therefore using a dustfree cloth or a damp chamois is best.
Anti-fingerprintproperties
"Anti-fingerprint properties" means fewer fingerprints left on the surface. Often the term is taken to mean fingerprints are no longer visible, although
sadly this is not the case. If a front is touched by greasy fingers, they will still be visible albeit it to a slightly lesser extent.
However, these marks on fronts can be removed by using an appropriate cleaning agent, especially if this is done promptly. If dirty marks are left on
the front for any time and dry on, all the more effort will be required to remove them. This is where good results can be achieved with our E-REIN-
FRONT cleaning set as well as glass cleaners.
Surfaces:
Fronts, worktops and surrounding element materials are products made by renowned manufacturers, and come with a hard-wearing surface suitable
for kitchens. The materials that are used are all subject to the most stringent of quality standards. Surfaces with anti-fingerprint finish reduce finger
marks and make them almost invisible. Dark tones or black in particular tend to show soiling / traces of use more clearly, which means they require
more care and cleaning. Water stains, limescale marks, greasy splashes from cooking, and also body fats, such as fingerprints, are typical marks and
stand out because of the dark colour shade. These marks can be completely removed, and therefore do not constitute any ground for complaint.
Here, we refer to our cleaning recommendations in the Instructions for care.
FittedSinkUnitsandHobs:
Fitted sink units and all other articles make of stainless steel are best cleaned using a sponge or a fleece cloth with a washing-up liquid or known
specialty cleaner (stainless steel cleaner, metal polish). Use mild washing-up or cleaning liquids on fitted sinks made of other materials, such as
porcelain, synthetic material, acrylic ceramic as well as stainless steel. In addition, make sure to always follow the specific care instructions provided
by the respective manufacturer!
Handles:
Avoid using substances containing solvents or which are harmful to aluminium, as well as cleaners containing vinegar, as these can cause permanent
discolouration.
Glass fronts and glass niches
Cleaning satin-finish glass surfaces:
silicon and acid-based cleaning products as well as hard sponges and cleaning polishes must not be used to clean satin-finish glass. Greasy and oily
substances leave shadowy marks on satin-finish surfaces. These can, however, be removed with glass cleaner. To remove stubborn marks caused, for
example, by hot fat etc., we recommend cleaning the surface with a ceramic-hob cleaner and plenty of water so as not to impair the surface and
surface shine (please only use mildly abrasive branded products.)
Cleaning smooth glass surfaces:
neutral cleaning products or standard household glass cleaners are suitable for cleaning smooth glass surfaces. Use soft, clean sponges, leathers and/
or cloths. Silicon and acid-based cleaning products as well as hard sponges and cleaning polishes must not be used to clean smooth glass surfaces.
Worktops:
Cleaning: Worktop surfaces should always be cleaned with a damp, soft cloth without any abrasive particles. Detergent or occasionally laundry soap
can be added to remove particularly stubborn dirt. Soaking may also be necessary sometimes. If your worktop has a tangible surface texture, it should
always be cleaned parallel to the direction of this texture.
