Maintenance
The maintenance remains the same for glass and ceramic hobs. Never use aggressive detergents or scou- ring powder and sponges with abrasive surfaces.
Cleaning after each use
•Slight, not burnt soiling has to be wiped off with a damp cloth without using detergents. The use of detergents may lead to discolouring. These heavy stains can not be wiped off easily by the first attempt and sometimes not even with a special detergent.
•Burnt soiling has to be removed with a scraper. Afterwards wipe off the ceramic hob with a damp cloth.
Stain removal
•Light metallic stains (aluminium remains) can be removed from the cooled down cooking zone with a special detergent. Calcareous deposits (caused by overboiling water) can be removed with vinegar or a special detergent.
•Removal of sugar,
The cooking zone involved must not be turned off! The remains have to be scraped off the hot cooking zone immediately with a scraper. The cooking zone can be switched off after the removal of the soiling. It may be cleaned with a special detergent after it has cooled down.
•The mentioned detergents are available in super- markets, electrical shops, drug stores, grocery stores and kitchen studios.
Scrapers are available in craft shops and department stores as well as in decoration stores.
•Do not apply detergents on hot cooking zones. Best is to let the detergent dry on the surface and to wipe it off with a damp cloth. If there are remains of cleaning agents wipe them off before you turn on the heat again. Remains could corrode.
ZANUSSI declines any liability should the appliance be used improperly and the safety measures not be observed.
