CLEANING
CAUTION:
before cleaning the appliance, disconnect it fromthegasandelectricitysupplies.

If you wish to maintain the shine of the ceramic surface, treat the glass with a siliconbased film product before use to protect the surface against water and dirt. This protective film is not durable, so it is advisable to repeat the application of the product frequently.
It is very important to clean the hob every time you use it, while the glass is still warm.
Do not clean using abrasive metal scourers, powder abrasives or corrosive sprays.
Depending on the degree of dirt, we recommend: for light stains, a damp sponge is sufficient. Tough, encrusted dirt is easily eliminated using a scraper (fig. 3), not supplied with the hob, but easy to find in local stores. Use the scraper carefully to avoid damaging the hob.
Traces of liquid spilled from pans can be eliminated with vinegar or lemon juice.
- Never allow sugar or sugary foods to fall on the hob while cooking. Should this occur, switch off the hob and clean it immediately with hot water, usingascraperonhotspills.
As time goes by metallic reflections, colouring or scratches may appear due to poor cleaning and the incorrect movement of pans. Scratches are hard to eliminate but do not affect the correct operation of your hob.
Do not use jets of steam to clean the appliance.
