What? How? Important!
Everyday soiling on
glass (fingerprints,
marks, stains left by
food or non-sugary
spill overs on the
glass)
1. Switch the power to the cooktop off.
2. Apply a cooktop cleaner while the glass is still
warm (but not hot!)
3. Rinse and wipe dry with a clean cloth or paper
towel.
4. Switch the power to the cooktop back on.
• When the power to the cooktop is
switched off, there will be no ‘hot surface’
indication but the cooking zone may still
be hot! Take extreme care.
• Heavy-duty scourers, some nylon scourers
and harsh/abrasive cleaning agents may
scratch the glass. Always read the label to
check if your cleaner or scourer is suitable.
• Never leave cleaning residue on the
cooktop: the glass may become stained.
Boil overs, melts, and
hot sugary spills on
the glass
Remove these immediately with a fish slice, palette
knife or razor blade scraper suitable for Ceramic glass
cooktops, but beware of hot cooking zone surfaces:
1. Switch the power to the cooktop off at the wall.
2. Hold the blade or utensil at a 30° angle and scrape
the soiling or spill to a cool area of the cooktop.
3. Clean the soiling or spill up with a dish cloth or
paper towel.
4. Follow steps 2 to 4 for ‘Everyday soiling on glass’
above.
• Remove stains left by melts and sugary
food or spill overs as soon as possible.
If left to cool on the glass, they may be
difficult to remove or even permanently
damage the glass surface.
• Cut hazard: when the safety cover is
retracted, the blade in a scraper is razor-
sharp. Use with extreme care and always
store safely and out of reach of children.
Spill overs on the
touch controls
1. Switch the power to the cooktop off.
2. Soak up the spill
3. Wipe the touch control area with a clean damp
sponge or cloth.
4. Wipe the area completely dry with a paper towel.
5. Switch the power to the cooktop back on.
• The cooktop may beep and turn
itself off, and the touch controls
may not function while there is
liquid on them. Make sure you wipe the
touch control area dry before turning the
cooktop back on.
Problem Possible causes What to do
The cooktop cannot
Be turned on.
No power. Make sure the ceramic hob is connected to
the power supply and that it is switched on.
Check whether there is a power outage
in your home or area. If you’ve checked
everything and the problem persists, call a
qualified technician.
The touch controls
are unresponsive.
The controls are locked. Unlock the controls. See section ‘Using your
ceramic cooktop’ for instructions.
The touch controls
are difficult to
operate.
There may be a slight film of water over the controls or
you may be using the tip of your finger when touching
the controls.
Make sure the touch control area is dry and
use the ball of your finger when touching the
controls.
The glass is being
scratched.
Rough-edged cookware.
Unsuitable, abrasive scourer or cleaning products
being used.
Use cookware with flat and smooth bases.
See ‘Choosing the right cookware’.
See ‘Care and cleaning’.
Some pans make
crackling or clicking
noises.
This may be caused by the construction of your
cookware (layers of different metals vibrating
differently).
This is normal for cookware and
does not indicate a fault.
