Cleaning And Maintenance - Siemens ep 726 qb 80e Gebrauchsanweisung

Cleaning and maintenance:

If the coating on the electric plates has worn off through use, smear them with a few
drops of oil or one of the maintenance products available on the market.
The high temperatures suffered by the cover on the triple-flame burner ring and the
stainless steel parts on your hob (plate rings, grease trays, area around burners, etc)
may become discoloured over time. This is NORMAL. Clean them after use with a
product suitable for stainless steel.
After washing the pans support, dry them thoroughly before cooking with them again.
The presence of droplets of water or dampness at the beginning of the cooking process
may damage the enamel surface.
Be careful with the feet on the metal grids when cleaning them; if they are detached,
the grid may scratch the glass next time it is used.
DON'Ts
Do not use scouring
powder, over cleaner
sprays or abrasive pads
that may scratch the glass.
Never use sharp objects
such as knives or wire wool
to remove the remains of
food that has become
encrusted onto the surface.
Do not use knives,
scrapers or similar
implements for cleaning
the joins between the glass
and the rims of the burners
or the metal surrounds.
Do not slide recipients over
the glass as they may
scratch it. Similarly, do not
drop hard or sharp objects
onto the glass. Avoid
Knocking any part of the
edge of the cooking plate.
Grains of sand, which may,
for example, come from
cleaning vegetables, can
scratch the glass surface.
DOs
Once the appliance is
cold, clean it with a
sponge and soapy
water.
Clean the surface of the
heating elements once
they have cooled down,
each time they are used.
Even small amounts of dirt
burn when it is switched
on again.
The burners and pans
support must be cleaned
regulary to keep them
clean. This is done by
submerging them in
soaply water and
scrubbing them them with
a non-metal brush to keep
the holes and slits free
from obstruction so they
can give a perfect flame.
Dry the burner covers
whenever wet or damp.
After cleaning and drying
the burners, make sure
that the covers are
properly in position on the
flame diffuser.
