Cleaning and Maintenance
The ceramic-glass cooking hob must be cleaned
and cared for regularly. Use only reliable and
verified cleansing agents, designed specially for
ceramic-glass surfaces. Any attempt to use other
detergents may result in considerable damage,
as they may be too invasive and damage the
surface or produce scratches.
Clean the cooktop surface only when cold or at
least cooled down, except in case of spilled sugar
or strongly sweetened food, as described before.
In such case wipe the surface immediately and
remove the sugar residues with a scraper
although the cooking zone is still hot, or else the
hotplate may be damaged beyond repair.
•
Regular cleaning is extremely simple. Usually it
is enough to wipe the ceramic-glass surface
with a wet cloth and dry it with a dry napkin
before and after use. This will protect the
cooktop both before use, by removing any dust
and dirt particles that might produce scratches
when moving the cookware about, as well as
after use, by maintaining it and preventing
deterioration. If the ceramic-glass surface is not
properly cleaned it may soon lose its natural
shine.
•
Dried stains or discolouring of the cooktop (as a
consequence of incorrect detergents or
incorrect cookware) may be possibly be
removed with verified and reliable detergents,
specially designed for ceramic-glass surfaces.
Apply the concentrated detergent to the
surface. Allow some time penetrate and wipe it
off with a wet cloth (except if instructed
otherwise by the detergent manufacturer).
CAUTION ! When applied on a hot surface,
the cleaning agent may damage the ceramic
glass cooktop!
•
Heavily dried or burnt stains may be removed
with a scraper.
•
The surface may be protected from damage by
regularly cleaning the cooktop using the
recommended cleaning agents.
•
Never use sponges previously used for washing
the dishes. They usually contain alkaline
substances that may result in discolouring the
cooktop surface.
