Maintenance
Cookware
•Cookware with rough bottoms should not be used since these can scratch the ceramic glass surface. The bottom of the good cookware should be as thick and as flat as possible.
•Before using any cookware with hob, make sure that the bottoms of the cookware are clean and dry.
•Always place the cookware on the cooking zone before it is switched on. If possible, always place the lids on the cookware, (this will ensure energy is not wasted).
•Bottom of cookware must not be smaller or larger than the cooking zones, they should of the correct size as indicated below, (this will ensure energy is not wasted).
Cleaning
•Before cleaning the hob, first remove the plug from the electrical supply socket. Then ensure that there is no residual heat stored in the appliance. If there is residual heat stored in the appliance, the appropriate residual heat indicator lamp will be on). In order to avoid burns, let the appliance cool down.
•Remove all food and fat stains with a window scrape.
•Then wipe the hob with a suitable washing up liquid and a clean damp cloth.
•To dry the hob rub the appliance using a clean dry cloth.
•If aluminium foil or plastic items have accidentally melted on the hob surface, they should be immediately removed from the hot cooking area with a scraper. This will avoid any possible damage to the surface. This also applies to sugar or food containing sugar that may have been spilt on the hob.
•If any other food or liquid has been spilt on the hob surface, remove the dirt when the appliance has cooled down.
•Do not use a dishcloth or abrasive sponge to clean the Vitroceramic surface. These materials may damage the surface.
•Do not use chemical detergents, sprays or stain removers on the Vitroceramic surface. These materials may cause fire or Vitroceramic colour fade. Clean with water and washing up liquid.
