MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING 
Cleaning 
Everyday soiling on glass 
(fingerprints, marks, stains 
left by food or non-sugary 
spillovers on the glass) 
1.  Switch the power to the cooktop off. 
2.  Apply a cooktop cleaner while the 
glass is still warm (but not hot!) 
3.  Rinse and wipe dry with a clean cloth 
or paper towel. 
4.  Switch the power to the cooktop back 
on. 
•  When the power to the cooktop is 
switched off, there will be no ‘hot 
surface’ indication but the cooking 
zone may still be hot! Take extreme 
care. 
•  Heavy-duty scourers, some nylon 
scourers and harsh/abrasive cleaning 
agents may scratch the glass. Always 
read the label to check if your cleaner 
or scourer is suitable. 
•  Never leave cleaning residue on the 
cooktop: the glass may become 
Boil-overs, melts, and hot 
sugary spills on the glass 
Remove these immediately with a fish 
slice, palette knife or razor blade scraper 
suitable for Ceramic glass cooktops, but 
beware of hot cooking zone surfaces: 
1.  Switch the power to the cooktop off at 
the wall. 
2.  Hold the blade or utensil at a 30° 
angle and scrape the soiling or spill to 
a cool area of the cooktop. 
3.  Clean the soiling or spill up with a 
dish cloth or paper towel. 
4.  Follow steps 2 to 4 for ‘Everyday 
soiling on glass’ above. 
•  Remove stains left by melts and 
sugary food or spillovers as soon as 
possible. If left to cool on the glass, 
they may be difficult to 
permanently damage the glass 
surface. 
•  Cut hazard: when the safety cover is 
retracted, the blade in a scraper is 
razor-sharp. Use with extreme care 
and always store safely and out of 
reach of children.

controls

3.  Wipe the touch control area with a 
clean damp sponge or cloth. 
4.  Wipe the area completely dry with a 
paper towel. 
5.  Switch the power to the cooktop back 
on.

area dry before turning the cooktop 
back on.
