8. CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
8.1 Cleaning the ceramic hob
Before carrying out any operations, disconnect the appliance from
the electricity supply.
The ceramic hob must be cleaned regularly, preferably after each use,
when the residual heat warning lights have gone out.
Any marks left by the use of pans with aluminium
bottoms can be wiped off with a cloth dipped in
vinegar.
If burnt residues are left after cooking, remove them
with the scraper provided, rinse with water and dry
thoroughly with a clean cloth. Regular use of the
scraper considerably reduces the use of chemicals for
daily cleaning of the hob.
In any case, abrasive or corrosive cleaners (e.g. powder products, oven-
cleaner sprays, stain removers and metal scouring pads) must never be
used.
8.2 Cleaning stainless steel
8.2.1 Routine daily cleaning
When cleaning and caring for stainless steel surfaces, always use only
specific products which do not contain abrasives or chlorine-based acids.
Instructions for use: pour the product onto a damp cloth and wipe over
the surface, then rinse thoroughly and dry with a soft cloth or chamois
leather.
8.2.2 Food stains or spills
Never use metal scouring pads or sharp scrapers; they will
damage surfaces.
Use ordinary non-abrasive products for steel, with the aid of
wooden or plastic utensils if necessary.
Rinse thoroughly and dry with a soft cloth or chamois leather.
Do not allow spills of foods with high sugar content (e.g. jam) to
dry inside the oven. If they dry for too long, they might damage
the enamel coating of the inside of the oven.
