Ceramic surfaces
Wipe all coarse soiling off using a
damp cloth. Stubborn soiling may need
to be removed with a shielded scraper
blade.
Then clean the hob with a suitable
ceramic and stainless steel hob cleaner
(see "Optional accessories") applied
with kitchen paper or a clean cloth. Do
not apply cleaner whilst the hob is still
hot, as this could result in marking.
Please follow the manufacturer's
instructions.
Finally, wipe the hob with a damp cloth,
then polish with a soft, dry cloth. Ensure
that all cleaner residues are removed.
Residues can burn onto the hob the
next time it is used, and cause damage
to the ceramic surface.
Spots caused by limescale, water and
aluminium residues (spots with a
metalic appearance) can be removed
using ceramic hob and stainless steel
cleaner.
Should any sugar, plastic or
aluminium foil spill or fall on to a hot
cooking zone while it is in use, first
switch off the appliance. Then carefully
scrape off all the sugar, plastic or
aluminium residues from the hob whilst
they are still hot using a shielded
scraper blade. Take good care: danger
of burning.
Allow the cooking zone to cool down,
and then clean as described above
with a suitable proprietary ceramic hob
and stainless steel cleaner.
Stainless steel
The ceramic and stainless steel hob
cleaner is suitable for cleaning stainless
steel surfaces (see "Optional
accessories").
To help prevent resoiling, we
recommend a stainless steel
conditioner (see "Accessories").
Apply sparingly with a soft cloth.
Do not use stainless steel cleaning
agents on printed surfaces. This
would rub off the print. These areas
should be only cleaned with an
E-Cloth or with a solution of warm
water and a little washing-up liquid
applied with a soft sponge.
