Maintenance and care

Advice on using your appliance

To get the best from your hob, it is vital that you follow a few fundamental rules during cooking and when prepar- ing food.

Use pans with a flat bottom so they adhere fully to the heating zone.

Always use pans whose diameter covers the cooking zone fully so that all the available heat can be used.

Make sure the pan base is always clean and dry, to guarantee good contact and long life for the cooking zones and pans alike.

Avoid using pans used normally on gas burners. The concentration of heat on gas burners can warp the bottom of the pan, consequently you would never obtain the desired result when using the pan on the glass ceramic hob.

Never leave a cooking zone on without a pan on it as the maximum heat level would be reached very quickly, which could damage the heating elements.

The glass ceramic hob is resistant to thermal and mechanical shocks. However, it may break due to a shock caused by a sharp object. In this case, unplug the appliance immediately and contact an authorised after-sales service centre to have it repaired.

Always keep your hob clean. Before proceeding with main- tenance operations, check that all the cooking zones are turned off and have cooled down completely.

Stainless steel frame (only on some models)

Stainless steel can stain as an effect of enduring contact with limescale in water or as an effect of highly aggres- sive detergents (containing phosphorus). We recommend you rinse and dry it thoroughly after maintenance. It is preferable to remove any water spills immediately.

Hob care

The vitroceramic glass used for the heating surface is smooth and poreless and it is also resistant to thermal shocks and to mechanical shocks under normal condi- tions of use. In order to preserve these properties, we recommend you care for your hob as follows:

for ordinary maintenance, just wipe it with a damp sponge and dry it thoroughly using paper towels.

If the hob is dirty, rub clean using a special cleaner suitable for vitroceramic glass, rinse off and dry thor- oughly.

food residue and dirt can be removed using a spe- cial scraper. Do this as soon as possible, do not wait for the hob to cool down in order to avoid incrustations. For excellent results, use a special stainless steel wool pad for vitroceramic glass cleaning soaked in soapy water.

When the hob is clean, you can apply a special product for the care and protection of the same: this type of product leaves an invisible film on the surface of the hob to protect the same against any spills and boiled-over food. It is best if you do this when the hob is lukewarm or cold.

Make sure you always rinse the hob with clean wa- ter and dry it thoroughly: otherwise the cleaning prod- ucts could become encrusted onto the hob during sub- sequent cooking.

Recommendations

Never use abrasive or corrosive substances, such as aerosol cleaners for grills and ovens, stain removers or rust removers, scouring powders and abra- sive sponges: even the delicate ones could scratch the hob surface irreversibly.

We recommend youkeep all items which could melt away from the hob, such as plastic utensils, sugar or products with a high sugar content. Should liq- uid boil over onto the hob surface, remove it immedi- ately (while the hob is still hot) using a razor blade scraper, in order to avoid damaging the surface.

Use this hob exclusively for cooking. Do not place items on the hob when the same is not in use. Do not use the hob as a work surface (by placing lids, saucepans or dishcloths on it, for example), nor as a chopping board.

Never leave aluminium wrappers, aluminium foil and plastic cookware on the hob when hot or still warm.

Do not use steam cleaners or high pressure clean- ers to clean your appliance.

Do not place metal items on the hob (such as knives, spoons, lids, etc.).

Never heat up unopened tins: they could burst.

The guarantee does not cover damage to the hob caused by incorrect use.
