Cleaning And Care - Siemens er15353eu Gebrauchsanweisung

Cleaning and care

If prolonged use has worn away the surface of the electrical hot plates, sprinkle them with a few
drops of oil or other maintenance products that are widely available.
The ring cover of the triple-flame burner and stainless steel parts such as hotplate rings, grease
pans and the area around the burners may become discoloured over time. This is NORMAL
because of the high temperatures. Each time the appliance is used these parts should be
cleaned with a product that is suitable for stainless steel.
After washing the pan supports, dry them completely before cooking with them again. Drops
of water or damp patches on the surfaces when you begin cooking may cause deterioration of
the enamel.
If the pan supports on your cooking hob are fitted with rubber rests, take care when you clean
them, as they might come off, leaving your pan support without protection, and it may scratch
the cooking hob.
The stainless steel cleaner must not be used in the area around the controls. The (printed)
symbols may be wiped off.
If your cooking hob has an aluminium panel under the controls, do not use a scourer to clean
the panel, as regular use of this might rub out the indications (serigraphy).
DON’T
NEVER use abrasive
products, sharp objects,
steel scourers or knives,
etc. for removing the
remains of hardened food
from the cooking hob,
pan supports, burners or
electric hot plates. If your
cooking hob is fitted with
a glass or aluminium
panel, never use a knife,
scraper or similar to clean
the point where it joins
the metal.
DO NOT use steam
cleaning machines to
clean the hob, this could
damage it.
Avoid spilling acidic
liquids (such as lemon
juice or vinegar) on your
cooking hob.
Try not to spill salt on
the surface of the
electrical hotplate.
DO
Once the appliance has
cooled down, clean it with
a sponge, soap
and water.
Wipe away all spilled
liquids as soon as
spillage occurs to save
unnecessary effort at
a later stage.
To keep the burners and
pan supports clean, you
should clean them
periodically by placing
them in soapy water and
brushing them with a
non-metallic brush to
ensure that the holes and
grooves are perfectly
clean, to provide a perfect
flame. Always dry the
burner covers and the
pan supports if they have
become wet.
After cleaning and drying
the burners, make sure
the burner covers are
correctly placed on the
burner's flame diffuser.
