If the pan supports are fitted with rubber rests, ensure that
these are also cleaned. The rests may come loose and the pan
support may scratch the hob.
After cleaning and drying the steel grids, ensure that they are
correctly fitted.
Maintenance
Always clean off any liquid as soon as it is spilt. This will
prevent food remains from sticking to the hob surface and you
will save yourself any unnecessary effort.
After each use, clean the surface of the respective burner parts
once they have cooled down. If any residue is left (baked-on
food, drops of grease etc.), however little, it will become stuck
to the surface and more difficult to remove later. The holes and
grooves must be clean for the flame to ignite properly.
The movement of some pans may leave metal residue on the
pan supports.
Clean the burners and pan supports using soapy water and
scrub with a non-wire brush.
Do not clean individual parts of the appliance in the
dishwasher.
Always dry the burners and pan supports completely. Water
droplets or damp patches on the hob at the start of cooking
may damage the enamel.
Caution!
The stainless steel cleaner must not be used in the area around
the controls. The (printed) symbols may be wiped off.
Thoroughly remove spilt cooking oil and acidic foodstuffs such
as lemon immediately.
Under no circumstance should abrasive cleaning powder be
used to clean the control panel. The inscriptions can be
scratched off as a result.
The burner caps are coated with black enamel. Due to the high
temperatures, discolouration may occur. Their burner function
is not adversely affected by this.
Never slide pans across the glass surface, as you may scratch
it. In addition, try not to drop heavy or sharp objects on the
glass. Never strike any part of the hob.
Grains of sand that may come from cleaning fruits and
vegetables will scratch the glass surface.
Melted sugar, or foods which contain a lot of sugar which may
have spilt, should be cleaned off the hob immediately, using the
glass scraper.
Avoid spilling salt on the surface of the electric hob.
Enamelled, painted
and silkscreen sur-
faces* (depending
on the appliance
model)
Wipe with warm soapy water and a cloth. Dry with a soft cloth.
Gas burner and steel
grid
Do not clean in the dishwasher. Remove the steel grid and clean this using a sponge, some hot water and
washing-up liquid. Remove the burner casing and burner cap. Use a sponge with some hot water and
washing-up liquid to clean these. Ensure that the gas openings on the burner casing are clean and free
from dirt particles. Clean the igniter with a small, soft brush. The gas burners only work properly when the
igniters are clean. Use a cloth and some hot soapy water to remove the food remains from the burner cas-
ing. Only use a little water for this. Water must not get into the interior of the appliance. Ensure that the jet
opening is not blocked or damaged during the cleaning process. Dry all of the parts after they are cleaned,
and place the burner caps exactly onto the burner casings. Individual parts that are not correctly positioned
make it difficult for the burner to ignite. Place the steel grid back into its position. The cleaning agent that we
recommend for cleaning the steel grid is available from our after-sales service or specialist retailers.
Glass hob* (depend-
ing on the appliance
model)
Care: Protective/care products for glass

Cover the blade again after cleaning. Replace damaged blades immediately.
Electric hotplate*
(depending on the
appliance model)
Clean with the hard side of a scouring sponge and some liquid scouring agent. After cleaning, switch the
hob on briefly to dry it. Wet hobs rust over time. Then apply a care product. Always remove spilt liquids and
food residue immediately.
Metal hotplate ring*
(depending on the
appliance model)
The metal ring may discolour with time. However, the original colour can be restored. Clean the ring with the
hard side of a scouring sponge and some liquid scouring agent. Do not touch the adjacent surfaces. These
may become damaged. The recommended cleaning agent for the metal ring on the electric hotplate is
available from our after-sales service or specialist retailers
