Cleaning and Maintenance
WARNING: Switch off the appliance and allow it to cool before cleaning is to be carried out.
General Instructions
•
Check whether the cleaning materials are appropriate and recommended by the manufacturer
before use on your appliance.
•
Use cream cleaners or liquid cleaners which do not contain particles. Do not use caustic
(corrosive) creams, abrasive cleaning powders, rough wire wool or hard tools as they may
damage the cooker surfaces.
•
Do not use cleaners that contain particles, as they may scratch the glass, enameled and/or
painted parts of your appliance.
•
Should any liquids overflow, clean them immediately to avoid parts becoming damaged.
•
Do not use steam cleaners for cleaning any part of the appliance.
Cleaning the Ceramic Glass

WARNING: Ceramic Cooktops - if the surface is cracked, to avoid the possibility of an electric shock,
switch off the appliance and call for service.

Use a cream or liquid cleaner to clean the vitro-ceramic glass. Then, rinse and dry them
thoroughly with a dry cloth.

Do not use cleaning materials meant for steel as they may damage the glass.

damage the glass-ceramic cooktop. If plastic, tin foil, sugar or sugary foods have fallen on the
hot glass-ceramic cooktop, please scrape it off the hot surface as quickly and as safely as
possible. If these substances melt, they can damage the glass- ceramic cooktop. When you
cook very sugary items like jam, apply a layer of a suitable protective agent beforehand if it is
possible.
