MAINTENANCE
2
When the cooking surface has cooled down
apply a few drops of a ceramic glass cleaner in
each burner area and work the cleaning cream
over the top plate surface with a damp paper
towel as if you were cleaning a window.
3
As a final step, clean with clear water and wipe
the top plate surface with a clean, dry paper
towel.
IMPORTANT
If any sugar or food containing sugar (preserves,
ketchup, tomato sauce, jellies, fudge, candy,
syrups, chocolate, etc.), a plastic item or kitchen foil
accidentally melts on the hot surface of the top plate,
remove the molten material IMMEDIATELY with a
metal razor scraper while the cooking surface is
still hot to avoid the risk of damage to the glass-
ceramic surface. For your safety please wear
an oven mitt potholder while cleaning the hot
cooking surface.
Metal Marks and Scratches
1
Be careful not to slide pots and pans across the
top plate. It will leave metal markings on the top
plate surface. These marks are removable using
the Ceramic Glass Cleaner with the Cleaning
Pad for Ceramic Glass.
2
If pots with a thin overlay of aluminum or copper
are allowed to boil dry, the overlay may leave
black discoloration on the top plate. This should
be removed immediately before heating again or
the discoloration may be permanent.
Burners
•
Remove the burner caps and burner heads by
pulling them upwards and away from the top plate.
•
Soak them in hot water and a little detergent or
washing up liquid.
•
After cleaning and washing them, wipe and dry
them carefully. Make sure that the flame holes are
clean and completely dry.
•
Wipe the fixed parts of the burner body with a damp
cloth and dry afterwards.
•
Gently wipe the ignition device and flame
supervision device with a well wrung-out cloth and
wipe dry with a clean cloth.
•
Before placing the burners back on the top plate,
make sure that the nozzle is not blocked.
WARNING
•
If burner head and cap are not dried completely
and aren’t reassembled correctly, the status of
flame can be strange.
Re-assemble the burners as follows:
1
Place the burner head (4) on to the burner body
(5) so that the ignition device (6) and the flame
supervision device (7) extend through their
respective holes in the burner head. The burner
head must click into place correctly.
2
Position the burner cap (1, 2, 3) onto the burner
head (4) so that the retaining pins fit into their
