• Always switch off the appliance before cleaning.
• For safety reasons do not clean the appliance with a steam jet or
high pressure cleaner.
• Clean the hob in accordance with the maintenance and cleaning
instructions in this manual.
• Do not use harsh abrasive cleaners or sharp metal scrapers to
clean the oven door glass since they can scratch the surface,
which may result in shattering of the glass.
How to avoid damage to the appliance
• Do not use the cooking area as a worktop or storage space.
• Please be careful the edges when moving pots and pans around.
• Do not have the cooking zones on with empty pans, or with no
pots or pans on them.
• Ceramic glass is very tough, and impervious to sharp temperature
changes, but is not unbreakable. It can be damaged if particularly
hard or sharp objects fall on to it.
• Be very cautious if using pots made of cast iron, or other pots with
rough edges or burrs. Moving these can cause scratches on
glass.
• If sugar or a mixture containing sugar falls onto a hot cooking
zone and melts, remove immediately, while still hot. If left to cool
down, it may damage the surface when removed.
Important: There is a risk of burning yourself when the glass
scraper is used on a hot cooking zone!
• Keep objects or materials liable to melt away from the ceramic
glass surface, for example, plastic utensils, aluminium foil, or
cooking wraps. If any other materials or foodstuffs have melted on
the ceramic glass surface, these should also be cleaned away
immediately.
6
Disposal of old appliances
Warning: Before disposing of old appliances please make them
inoperable so that they cannot be the source of danger.
To do this, have a qualified person disconnect the
appliance from the house circuitry.
To protect the environment, it is important that worn out appliances
are disposed of in the correct manner.
• The appliance must not be disposed of with household rubbish.
• You can obtain information about collection dates or public refuse
disposal sites from your local Council or Environmental Health
Office.
Note: Moisture coming from or appearing around Hob.
The moisture could be coming from the wood and hob when the
hob is operated initially or after long time of no operation.
This is not a fault with the Hob.
7
Suitable Kitchenware
Pots and pans
The better the pot, the better the cooking results.
• You can recognize good pots and pans by their bases. The base
should be as thick and flat as possible.
• When buying new pots and pans, pay particular attention to the
diameter of the base. Maunfacturers often only state the diameter
of the rim.
• Pots with aluminum, or copper bases can cause metallic
discolouring on the ceramic glass surface which is very difficult or
impossible to remove.
• Be very careful when using cast iron pots or pots with damaged
bases which are rough and or have burrs on them. Scratches can
occur if they are slid across the surface.
• When cold, pot bases are normally bowed slightly in wards
(concave). They should never be bowed outwards (convex).
• If you use special pots and pans (e.g., a pressure cooker,
simmering pan, wok etc.) please observe the manufacturer’s
instructions.
General information
• The base should always be clean and dry.
• In order to avoid ugly scratches on the ceramic glass cooking
surface, do not slide pots and pans around but lift them up instead
when changing positions.
• Scratches can result from grains of sand (e.g., after washing out
vegetables) which are dragged with the pot across the cooking
surface.
• Always use large pots for dishes with lots of liquid so that nothing
can boil over.
8
Tips on saving energy
You will save valuable energy by observing the following points:
• Always position pots and pans before you switch on the cooking
zone.
• Dirty cooking zones and pot bases increase the power
consumption.
• Whenever possible, always have the lid firmly placed on the pots
and pans so that they are completely covered.
• Switch off the cooking zones before the end of the cooking time to
use the residual heat for keeping food warm or for melting
purposes.
• The base of the pot should have the same size as the cooking
zone.
• Using a pressure cooker shortens the cooking times by up to 50%.

Cleaning and care
Light Soiling
1. Wipe the ceramic glass surface with a damp cloth and a little
cooktop cleaner.
2. Then rub dry with a clean cloth. Remnants of cleaner must not be
left on the surface.
3. Thoroughly clean the entire ceramic glass cooking surface once
a week with a commercially available ceramic glass or stainless
steel cleaner.
4. Then wipe the ceramic glass surface using plenty of clean water
and rub dry with a clean fluff-free cloth.
Stubborn Soiling
1. To remove food that has boiled over or stubborn splashes, use a
glass scraper.
2. Place the glass scraper at an angle to the ceramic glass surface.
3. Remove soiling by sliding the blade across the area.
You can obtain glass scrapers and ceramic glass cleaners
which are suitable for glass ceramic, e.g. CERA CLEAN, cerafix, sidol for ceran+steel, from your local Hardware Centre.
20
Problem Soils
1. Remove sugar, melted plastic, aluminium foil or other meltable
materials with a glass scraper immediately and while still hot.
Important: There is a risk of burning yourself when the
glass scraper is used on a hot cooking zone!
2. Then clean the hob normally when it has cooled down.
If the cooking zone on which something has melted has already
cooled down, warm it up again for cleaning.
Scratches or dark marks on the ceramic glass surface, caused
by a pan base with sharp edges, cannot be removed. However,
they do not impair the function of the hob.
Since the heat is generated in the pan, food or foodstuffs
possibly on the glass ceramic surface are not burned in as
badly.
Important: Cleaning agents must not come into contact with
the hot ceramic glass surface! All cleaning agents must be
removed with plenty of clean water after cleaning because they
can have a caustic effect when the rings are next heated!
Do not use any aggressive cleaners such as grill or oven
sprays, coarse scourers or abrasive pan cleaners.
Clean the ceramic glass surface after each use when it is warm
to the touch or cold. This will avoid spillages becoming burned
on. Remove scale and
water marks, fat spots
and discolouration with a
metallic shimmer using a
commercially available
ceramic glass or stainless
steel cleaner.
