Cleaning and care
Ceramic surface
When cleaning with liquid dish soap, not all contaminants and residues are removed.
An invisible film forms, which causes discoloration of the ceramic. This discoloration cannot be removed.
Clean the cooktop on a regular basis with a special ceramic cleaner.
First wipe down the surface with a damp cloth to loosen soiling, then remove stubborn crusting with a glass scraper.
Clean the cooktop with the Miele ceramic and stainless steel cleaner (see "Optional accessories") or a commercial ceramic cleaner and paper towel or a clean cloth. Do not put the cleaner on a hot cooktop since this may cause spotting. Please follow the manufacturer's instructions.
Then clean the cooktop with a damp cloth and dry it off. Cleaner residues will burn into the cooktop during subsequent uses, damaging the glass ceramic. Make sure you remove all residues.
Spots from lime deposits, water, and aluminum deposits (metallic spots) can be removed with a glass ceramic and stainless steel cleaner.
Danger of burns!
Risk of burns! Wear oven mitts and use a glass scraper to remove sugar, plastic or aluminum residues from the hot cooktop.
Should any sugar, plastic or aluminum foil spill or fall onto a hot burner while it is in use, first turn off the appliance. Then carefully scrape off these residues from the cooktop immediately while they are still hot, using a shielded scraper blade. Allow the appliance to cool down, and then clean the cooktop when it has cooled down as described above.
