Care and cleaning
What?
How?
Important!
CERAMIC GLASS COOKTOP
Light soiling
after every
use (eg.
fingerprints,
greasy
stains)
1
Wipe with a soft, damp cloth and mild
detergent. A microfibre cloth is ideal for
this.
2
Wipe dry with a clean cloth or paper towel.
Before cleaning, make sure that
the glass is a safe temperature
to touch (all the ‘Hot surface’
indicators are unlit).
Non-sugary
boilovers,
spills and
food stains
(e.g. pasta
water, burnt-
on grease or
milk)
1
Remove the soiling with ceramic cooktop
cleaner using a sponge or non-abrasive
scourer suitable for ceramic glass.
2
Remove any excess cleaner and wipe dry
with a clean cloth or paper towel.
3
Apply ceramic cooktop conditioner or
protector following the instructions on the
dispenser. A microfibre cloth is ideal for this.
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 cleaner residue
on the cooktop: the glass
may become stained.
Hot sugary
spills (e.g.
jam, syrup,
vegetable
water),
melted
plastic wrap
or aluminium
foil
Remove these immediately with a spatula
or razor blade scraper suitable for ceramic
glass cooktops, but beware of hot spills
and surfaces:
1
Hold the blade or utensil at a 30
o
angle and
scrape the soiling or spill to a cool area of
the cooktop.
2
Immediately clean the soiling up with a dish
cloth or paper towel.
3
Follow the instructions for ‘Light soiling
after every use’ above.
Remove stains left by melts
and sugary food or spillovers
immediately. If left to cool
on the glass, they may be
difficult to remove or even
permanently damage the
glass surface.
Cut hazard: the blade in a
scraper is razor-sharp when
the safety cover is retracted.
Use with extreme care and
always store safely out of
reach of children.
Metallic
stains caused
by cookware
with copper
or aluminium
base
Follow the instructions for ‘Non-sugary
boilovers, spills and food stains’ above.
For stubborn metallic stains, try using a
razor blade scraper suitable for ceramic
glass cooktops, holding it at a 30
o
angle.
If the cooktop is not cleaned
after every use and copper or
aluminium stains are allowed to
burn onto the surface, they may
react with the glass and no
longer be removable. They don’t,
however, affect performance.
