Cleaning and maintenance
Any food which spills onto the hob must be cleaned off
immediately with a dishcloth.
Once the hotplates are cool, they should be cleaned with
soap and water.
Dry the hob. Moisture may cause the hotplates to rust
over time. Wet hotplates should be dried quickly.
To protect the surface of the hotplates, treat them using
an oil or other protective product available on the market.
The edges of the hotplates may turn slightly yellow with
use. This is normal. Clean the edges using a stainless
steel cleaner. These cleaners must not be used on areas
with printed symbols. The symbols may be wiped off.
Enamel surfaces
Clean the cooking hob using a damp cloth.
Do not use aabrasive cleaning products or scouring
sponges. This could cause the hob to lose its shine.
Stainless steel surfaces
Over time, bluish or yellowish stains may appear on the
hob and around the edges of the hotplates. Use stainless
steel cleaners.
Do not use abrasive cleaning products.
Preventing damages
The hob must be kept dry. Salt water and wet pans can
damage the hob.
Try not to spill salt on the hob.
Never use sharp instruments, knives, etc. to remove bits
of hardened food that have stuck to the hob.
Do not clean the appliance using steam cleaners; this
could cause damage.
