7. CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
. Before carrying out any maintenance work on the hob, allow it to
cool down.
. Only products, (creams and scrapers) specifically designed for
aglass ceramic surfaces should be used. They are obtainable from
hardware stores.
. Avoid spillages, as anything which falls on to the hob surface will
quickly burn and will make cleaning more difficult.
. It is advisable to keep away from the hob all substances which are
liable to melt, such as plastic items, sugar, or sugar-based products.
.MAINTENANCE:
- Place a few drops of the specialised cleaning product on the hob
surface.
- Rub any stubborn stains with a soft cloth or with slightly damp
kitchen paper.
- Wipe with a soft cloth or dry kitchen paper until the surface is clean.
If there are still some stubborn stains:
- Place a few more drops of specialised cleaning fluid on the surface.
- Scrape with a scraper, holding it at an angle of 30° to the hob, until
the stains disappear.
- Wipe with a soft cloth or dry kitchen paper until the surface is clean.
- Repeat the operation if necessary.
A FEW HINTS:
Frequent cleaning leaves a protective layer which is essential to
prevent scratches and wear. Make sure that the surface is clean
before using the hob again. To remove marks left by water, use a few
drops of white vinegar or lemon juice. Then wipe with absorbent paper
and a few drops of specialised cleaning fluid.
The glass ceramic surface will withstand scraping from flat-bottomed
cooking vessels, however, it is always better to lift them when moving
them from one zone to another.
NB:
Do not use a sponge which is too wet.
Never use a knife or a screwdriver.
A scraper with a razor blade will not damage the surface, as long
as it is kept at an angle of 30°.
Never leave a scraper with a razor blade within the reach of
children.
Never use abrasive products or scouring powders.
. The metal surround : to safely clean the metal surround wash with
soap and water, rinse, then dry with a soft cloth.
Any change n the colour of the glass-ceram c surface does
not affect ts operat on or the stab l ty of the surface. Such
d scolorat ons are mostly a result of burnt food res dues or
use of cookware made of mater als such as alum n um or
copper; these sta ns are d ff cult to remove.
8. PROBLEM SOLVING
The cooking zones do not simmer or only fry gently
Only use flat-bottomed pans. If light is visible between the pan and the
hob, the zone is not transmitting heat correctly.
The pan bottom should fully cover the diameter of the selected zone.
The cooking is too slow
Unsuitable pans are being used. Only use flatbottomed utensils, that
are heavy and have a diameter at least the same
as the cooking zone.
Small scratches or abrasions on the hob's glass surface
Incorrect cleaning or rough-bottomed pans are used; particles like
grains of sand or salt get between the hob and the bottom of the pan.
Refer to the "CLEANING" section; make sure that pan bottoms are
clean before use and only use smooth bottomed pans. Scratches can
be lessened only the cleaning is done correctly.
