8 Cleaning and
Maintenance
Observe all safety and warning information
(see the Safety chapter).
Follow the enclosed manufacturer’s information.
Make sure that the cooktop and cooktop extractor
have been switched off completely and have cooled
down prior to the planned cleaning and maintenance
work to prevent injury (see the Operation chapter).
Regular cleaning ensures the longevity of the product
and optimal functioning.
Adhere to the following cleaning and maintenance
cycles:
Component Cleaning cycle
Control panel
Control knob
immediately after every soiling
Cooktop
Pot holder
Gas burner cover
immediately after every soiling every
week thoroughly with standard
commercially available cleaning agents
Tab. 8.1 Cleaning cycles
8.1 Cleaning agents
INFO Due to the use of aggressive cleaning agents and
abrasion caused by the pot bases the surface will
become damaged and dark stains will occur.
You need a special glass ceramic scraper and suitable
cleaning agents to clean the cooktop.
Never use steam cleaners, abrasive sponges, scouring
pads, or chemically aggressive cleaning agents
(e.g. baking oven spray).
Make sure that the cleaning agent does not contain
any sand, soda, acids or chloride.
8.2 Maintaining the cooktop
Do not use the cooktop as a worktop or shelf.
Do not push or pull cookware across the cooktop.
Always lift pots and pans.
Keep the cooktop clean.
Remove any kind of soiling immediately.
Only use cookware which is suitable for glass ceramic
cooktops (see the Device description chapter).
8.3 Cleaning the cooktop
INFO When the cooktop extractor is switched on, the
stainless steel grease filter must be installed
to ensure that no small and light objects, such
as cleaning wipes made of fabrics or paper are
sucked in (see operating instructions for the
cooktop).
Make sure that the cooktop is switched off (see the
Operating chapter).
Make sure that the gas supply is disconnected/turned
off.
Wait until all cooking zones are cold.
Remove all coarse soiling and food residues from the
cooktop with a glass ceramic scraper.
Apply the cleaning agent onto the cold cooktop.
Rub the cleaning agent with a paper towel or a clean
cloth.
Wipe off the cooktop while wet.
Rub the cooktop dry with a clean cloth.
When the cooktop is hot:
Immediately remove molten residues of plastic,
aluminium film, sugar or foods containing sugar with
a glass ceramic scraper from the hot cooking zone
to prevent burning them in.
Heavy soiling
Remove heavy soiling and stains (limescale stains,
pearly shimmering stains) with cleaning agents while
the cooktop is still warm.
Soften dried dirt residues using a damp cloth.
Remove dirt residues with the glass ceramic scraper.
Always remove grains, crumbs or similar which fall
onto the cooktop during general cooking work right
away to prevent the surface from being scratched.
Coloured changes and shiny surfaces are not cooktop
damage. They do not impact on the function of the
cooktop and the stability of the glass ceramic.
Discolourations to the cooktop arise from residues which
are not removed and have been burnt in.
Glossy spots are caused by unsuitable cleaning agents.
They are very hard to remove.
