Care and Cleaning
Make sure that the electrical power is off and all
surfaces are cool before cleaning any part of the
cooktop.
Cleaning the Appliance
CAUTION
• Cleaning operations must only be carried out
when the appliance is completely cool.
• The appliance should be disconnected from the
main supply before commencing any cleaning
process.
• Clean the appliance regularly, preferably after
each use.
• Abrasive cleaners or sharp objects will damage
the appliance surface; you should clean it using
water and a little mild soap.
• Do not clean the control knobs or grate in a
dishwasher.
• Do not spray cleansers directly onto the control
panel. Moisture entering the electric circuits may
cause electric shock or product damage.

Grate and Control Knobs
• Take off the grate.
• Clean the grate and the control knobs with a
damp cloth, mild soap and warm water. For
stubbon soiling, soak beforehand.
• Dry everything with a clean soft cloth.
Cooktop Surface
• Regularly wipe over the cooktop surface using a
soft cloth well wrung-out in warm water to which
a little mile soap has been added.
• Dry the cooktop surface thoroughly after
cleaning.
• Thoroughly remove salty foods or liquids from
the cooktop as soon as possible to avoid the risk
of corrosion.
• Stainless steel parts of the appliance may
become discolored over time. This is normal
because of the high temperatures. Each time the
appliance is used, these parts should be cleaned
with a product that is suitable for stainless steel.
• When you finish cooking, ensure that the panel
and accessories have cooled down completely
before removing the grate, burner heads and
caps.
• Do not allow liquids such as vinegar, coffee, milk,
salt water, lemon or tomato juice to come in
contact with stainless steel parts for extended
periods of time.
WARNING
• Be careful. The water can be hot.
NOTE
• Use of abrasive powders or abrasive cleaners
may cause scratches.
• Be careful. Do not use excessive force when
cleaning the product. This can lead to scratches.
• Be careful. Do not allow water to enter the top
ring.
• Clean the stainless steel cooktop surface
immediately after use. It will be difficult to clean
completely if it is very dirty.
Burners
• Remove the burner heads and caps by pulling
them upwards and away from the cooktop.
• Soak them in hot water and a little detergent or
mild soap.
