Cleaning the hob

Cleaning the hob
CAUTION!
Risk of burns!
Improper handling may lead to burns.
Prior to cleaning, switch off the hob
■
and allow to cool completely. Excep-
tion: You want to remove sugary or
starchy food waste, plastics or alu-
minium foil (see next page).
Proceed with caution since the cook-
■
ing zones may still be warm even af-
ter the residual heat indicator 'H' has
disappeared.
NOTICE
Risk of damage to property!
Improper use of the hob can cause
damage.
Do not use steam or high-pressure
■
cleaners to clean the hob. Steam
could get through cracks into live
electrical components of the hob and
cause short-circuiting.
Do not use any abrasive glass clean-
■
ers on the hob as they may scratch the
surface. This can destroy the glass.
Clean and maintain the hob regu-
■
larly with a special care product con-
taining a special impregnating oil
for glass hobs. Such products can be
found in specialist shops.
Slight soiling which is not burnt on
• Switch the hob off.
• After it has cooled down, wipe light dirt
with a damp cloth.
• If necessary, use a suitable cleaner and
wipe with clean water.
• Then dry the surface with a soft cloth to
prevent lime stains.
• You can easily remove light stains having
a pearlescent colour (aluminium residues,
such as from aluminium foil) using a com-
mercially available detergent that is spe-
cifically available for such cleaning.
• Vinegar is good for removing lime stains.
Hard, baked-on dirt
• Tough stains can be most easily removed
after cooling using a blade scraper. Spe-
cially designed cleaning products can
also be found in specialist shops.
• Finally, wipe the surface with a damp
cloth.
• Treat the hob with a special care product
after cleaning.
Removing sugary or starchy food
waste, plastics or aluminium foil
NOTICE
Sugary or starchy food waste as well as
plastics or aluminium foil residue can
cause permanent and irreparable dam-
age to the hob.
• If this happens, remove the dirt from the
still-hot glass ceramic with a sharp, com-
mercially available blade scraper. While
