CLEANING
CAUTION: Before cleaning the appliance, disconnect it from the gas and
electricity supplies.
If you wish to maintain the shine of the ceramic surface, treat the glass with a
silicon-based film product before use to protect the surface against water and
dirt. This protective film is not durable, so it is advised to repeat the
application of the product frequently.
It is very important to clean the cooktop every time you use it, while it is still
warm.
Do not clean using abrasive metal scourers, powder abrasives or corrosive
sprays.
Depending on the degree of dirt, we recommend the following:
For light stains, a damp sponge is sufficient.
Tough, encrusted dirt is easily eliminated using a scraper (Fig. 10), not
supplied with the cooktop, but easy to find in local stores. Use the scraper
carefully to avoid damaging the cooktop.
Traces of liquid spilled from pans can be eliminated with vinegar or lemon
juice.
Try not to allow sugar or sugary foods to fall on the cooktop while
cooking. Should this occur, switch off the cooktop and clean it
immediately with hot water, using a scraper on hot spills.
As time goes by, metallic streaks, discoloring or scratches may appear due
to poor cleaning and the incorrect movement of pans. Scratches are hard
to eliminate but do not affect the correct operation of your cooktop.
Do not use jets of steam to clean the appliance.
The enameled grids, enameled covers "A", "B" and "C", and burner heads "T-M" (see
Figs. 11 and 11c) must also be washed and the ignition elements "AC" and safety cut-
off sensors "TC" (see Fig. 11) must be cleaned. Clean them gently with a small nylon
brush as shown (see fig. 11b) and allow to dry fully. Do not wash them in the
dishwasher. Cleaning operations must be carried out when the cooktop and
