5 Cleaning and care
x Switch the hob off and let it cool down before you clean it.
x Never clean the glass ceramic hob with a steam cleaner or similar appliance!
x When cleaning make sure that you only wipe lightly over the ON/OFF key. The hob may otherwise be
accidentally switched on.
x Observe all safety and warning information.
x Regular cleaning and maintenance ensures long service life of the appliance and opt
imal function.
Component Cleaning cycle
Operating panel Immediately after every soiling
Glass ceramic hob
Clean with conventional glass ceramic detergents immediately
after soiling and on a weekly basis
Air inlet glass
After cooking very greasy dishes; at least once a week. Clean
by hand (Do not put this part in the dishwasher!)
Grease filters
Clean when the fan power level indicator shows F. (Do not put
this part in the dishwasher!)
Condensation filter Every time you clean the grease filters (do not put this part in
the dishwasher!).
Water collector When some water overflows and flows in the air inlet opening.
Carbon filters (only in C - version)
Regenerate if odours have built up, extraction power is
dwindling or the fan power level indicator shows C. Every 2
years the carbon filters must be replaced.
5.1 Glass ceramic hob
Important! Never use aggressive cleaning agents such as rough scouring agent, abrasive saucepan cleaners, rust
and stain removers etc.
Cleaning after use
x Always clean the entire hob when it has become soiled. It is recommended that you do so every time the hob
is used. Use a damp cloth and a little washing up liquid for cleaning. Then dry the hob with a clean dry cloth
to ensure that there is no de
tergent left on the surface of the hob.
Weekly cleaning
x Clean the entire hob thoroughly once a week with commercial glass cerami
c cleaning agents. Please follow
the manufacturer's instructions carefully. When applied, the cleaning agent will coat the hob in a protective
film which is resistant to water and dirt. All the dirt will remain on the film and can then easily be removed.
Then rub the hob dry with a clean cloth. Make sure th
at no cleaning agent remains on the surface of the hob
since this will react aggressively when the hob is heated up and will change the surf
ace.
5.2 Specific soiling
Heavy soiling and stains (lime scaling and shiny, mother-of-pearl-type stains) can best be
removed when the hob is still slightly warm. Use commercial cleaning agents to clean the hob.
Proceed as outlined under Item 2.
First soak food which has boiled over with a wet cloth and then remove remaining soiling with
a special glass scraper for glass ceramic hobs. Then clean the hob again as described under chapter
5.1.

CLEANING AND CARE
EN
Burnt sugar and melted plastic must be removed immediately, when they are still hot, with a glass
scraper. Then clean the hob again as described under Item 2.
Grains of sand which may get onto the hob when you peel potatoes or clean lettuce may scratch the
surface of the hob when you move pots around. Make sure that no grains of sand are left on the hob.
Changes to the colour of the ceramic surface have no effect on the function and stability of the glass
ceramic. These colour changes are not changes in the material but food residues which were not
removed and which have burnt into the surface.
Shining areas are caused by wear from pan bottoms or unsuitable cleaning agents, especially when
using cookware with aluminium bases or by unsuitable cleaning agents. They are difficult to remove with
standard cleaning agents. You may need to repeat the cleaning process several times. In time, the
decoration will wear off and dark stains will appear as a result of using aggressive cleaning agents and
faulty pan bases.
5.3 How to remove the filters from the appliance
To gain access to the grease (5) and activated carbon (6) filters, open the filters drawer (1) and remove
the condensation filter (3) and the water collector (2). Now the filters box (4) can also be removed. The
grease and activated carbon filter are placed inside it.
The activated carbon filters are available only in C-version!
