3.6 Cleaning and maintenance

Stubborn stains on stainless steel (spillage wells)

In particular spilled red cabbage, red beetroot, soy sauce, rhubarb and other foodstuffs with a high sugar content and acidic liquids can discolour the surface. To remove stubborn stains from stainless steel, use a cleansing agent specially formulated for stainless steel and always clean in the direction of the structure of the steel in order to avoid shiny spots. (Any resulting damage is not covered by the warranty!)

If the stains cannot be removed using the method described above, clean the hob with oven and grill cleaner. Bear in mind, however, that you will have to clean the entire spillage well in order to avoid differences in colour. You must also treat the spillage well afterwards with a polish or maintenance product for stainless steel. It is normal for the surface to discolour somewhat during the product’s lifetime.

Keradur® burner bases

The burner bases have a unique Keradur® surface coating. The special dirt-repelling lacquer has a ceramic filling that makes cleaning easier and substantially improves the durability of the burners. The burner bases are best cleaned with a mild cleaning product and a soft cloth.

Pan support, control knobs

Take off the pan supports.

Clean them and the control knobs with a damp cloth, washing-up liquid and warm water. Stubborn stains are best soaked beforehand.

Finally dry everything with a clean soft cloth.

Top plate

Regularly wipe over the top plate using a soft cloth that has been dampened in warm water to which a dash of washing-up liquid has been added.

Dry the top plate thoroughly after cleaning.

Thoroughly remove salty foods or liquids from the hob as soon as possible to avoid the risk of corrosion.

Stainless steel parts of the appliance may become discoloured over time. This is normal because of the high temperatures. Clean these parts with a product that is suitable for stainless steel each time the appliance is used.
