5.3.3 Elements
Wiping with a kitchen towel is usually sufficient. •
Remove boiled over and burnt leftovers with the blunt side of a knife or a non- •
abrasive sponge (Scotch Brite no. 373).
Always remove any remaining soap after cleaning and switch on the elements for a •
short while to evaporate the humidity.
Rub the plates every now and then with acid free oil (sewing machine oil) or with a •
maintenance product Collo Elektrol (drugstore).
5.3.4 Stainless steel rim
The stainless steel rim along the elements can be cleaned with a non-abrasive •
sponge (Scotch Brite no. 373). Remove the remains of the soap after cleaning,
especially between the cast iron element and the stainless steel rim.
5.3.5 Decorative glass cover
Always clean the decorative glass cover after use. If the lid is very dirty we advise you •
to soak the decorative glass cover in water with a bit of dishwasher detergent for a
while (e.g. by putting a humid cloth on top of the glass cover).
Removing the decorative glass cover •
Open the decorative lid. Carefully lift the decorative º
glass cover out of the hinged brackets.
Placing the decorative glass cover •
Carefully lower the decorative glass cover into the º
hinged brackets. The decorative lid must only be
placed vertically (see illustration). If this does not work,
then the hinges need to be replaced. Never randomly
switch the location of the hinges, because if they are
wrongly located, then the lid cannot be brought to
a standstill and it can drop down. Attention! Always
check if the decorative lid can be brought to a standstill
after re-installing it. Close the decorative glass cover.
