Safety When Cleaning

• For safety reasons do not clean the appliance with a steam jet or high

pressure cleaner.

• Clean the hob in accordance with the maintenance and cleaning instruc-

tions in this manual.

To Avoid damaging your appliance

• Do not use the hob as a work surface or for storage.

• Do not operate the cooking zones when there is no pan or the pans are

empty.

• Ceramic glass is insensitve to temperature shock and very robust; howev-

er it is not unbreakable. Especially sharp and hard objects that fall on the

cooking surface can damage it.

• Do not use cast iron pans or pans with a rough, burred or damaged base.

Scratching may occur if the pans are slid across the surface.

• Do not place any pans on the hob frame. Scratching and damage to the

paint may occur.

• Make sure that no acidic liquids, e.g. vinegar, lemon or descaling agents,

are spilt onto the hob frame, since these cause dull spots.

• If sugar or a preparation with sugar comes into contact with the hot cook-

ing zone and melts there it must be cleaned off immediately with a scraper

while it is still hot. If it cools, the surface may be damaged when it is re-

moved.

• Keep all items and materials that can melt away from the glass ceramic

surface, e.g. plastics, aluminium foil, or oven foils. If something of this na-

ture should melt onto the ceramic glass surface, it must also be removed

immediately using the scraper.
