Cleaning and care

General notes

Clean the appliance regularly, preferably after each use. Allow the appliance to cool down to a safe temperature before cleaning.

Do not use a steam cleaner to clean this appliance. The steam could reach electrical components and cause a short circuit. Pressurised steam could also cause permanent damage to the surface and to other components for which the manufacturer cannot accept liability.

Do not use any sharp objects which could damage the seal between the ceramic surface and the surrounding frame and between the frame and the worktop.

Do not use any of the following on your hob as they can damage the surface:

cleaning agents containing sand, soda, alkalines, acids or chlorides, grill and ovensprays, dishwasher detergent, stain or rust removers, scouring agents or cream cleaners, abrasive sponges and brushes.

Do not use washing up liquid to clean the ceramic surface as it can leave a blue sheen which may be difficult to remove.

The ceramic surface can be cleaned using a proprietary cleaning agent for ceramic surfaces. Follow the manufacturer's instructions on the packaging.

Do not let the ignitor in the burner get wet. If it gets wet it will not spark.

After cleaning, dry thoroughly with a soft cloth to prevent a build up of limescale deposits.

A microfibre "E-Cloth" is available from the Miele UK Spare Parts Department, which is suitable for cleaning surfaces such as stainless steel, glass, plastic and chrome without the use of chemicals.
