Suggestions and
recommendations
* Use pots or pans with thick, comple-
tely flat bottoms.
* Do not slide pots and pans over the
glass because they could scratch it.
* Although the glass can take knocks
from large pots and pans without
sharp edges, try not to knock it.
* To avoid damaging the ceramic
glass surface, do not drag pots
and pans over the glass and keep
the undersides of them clean and
in good condition.
* Recommended diameters of the pot
bottom (see ''Technical Data Sheet''
supplied with the product).
Try not to spill sugar or pro-
ducts containing sugar on the glass
as while the surface is hot these
could damage it.

Cleaning and maintenance

0
8
To keep the appliance in good
condition, clean it using suitable
8
products and implements once it has
5
cooled down. This will make the job
4
easier and avoid the build-up of dirt.
Never use harsh cleaning products or
4
tools that could scratch the surface, or
3
steam-operated equipment.

Light dirt not stuck to the surface can
2
be cleaned using a damp cloth and a
1
gentle detergent or warm soapy water.
However, for deeper stains or grease
use a special cleaner for ceramic hot
plates and follow the instructions on
the bottle. Dirt that is firmly stuck due
to being burned repeatedly can be
removed using a scraper with a blade.
Slight tinges of colour are caused by
pots and pans with dry grease residue
underneath or due to grease between
the glass and the pot during cooking.
These can be removed using a nickel
scourer with water or a special cleaner
for ceramic hot plates. Plastic objects,
sugar or food containing a lot of sugar
that have melted onto the surface
must be removed immediately using
a scraper.
Metallic sheens are caused by
dragging metal pots and pans over
the glass. These can be removed by
cleaning thoroughly using a special
cleaner for ceramic glass hot plates,
although you may need to repeat the
cleaning process several times.
Warning:
A pot or pan may become
stuck to the glass due to a product
having melted between them. Do
not try to lift the pot while the
heating zone is cold! This could
break the glass.
Do not step on the glass or
lean on it as it could break and cau-
se injury. Do not use the glass as a
surface for placing objects.

Efficiency of the appliance:
-Appliance has been tested
according to standard EN 60350-
2 and the obtained value, in Wh/
Kg, is available in the appliance's
rating plate.
Following advices will help you
to save energy anytime you cook:
* Use the correct lid for each pot
whenever is possible. Cooking
without lid uses more energy.
* Use pans with flat bases and
appropriate base diameters in
order to match size of the cooking
zone. Pan manufacturers usually
provide top diameter of the pot that
is always larger than base diameter.
* When water is used for cooking,
use little quantities in order to
preserve vitamins and minerals of
vegetables and set the minimum
power level that allows maintaining
the cooking. High power level
is unnecessary and a waste of
