Care and maintenance
Clean the hob after each use in order to avoid damaging
the surface and to prevent the formation of baked-on
deposits which are difficult to remove. Before cleaning,
make sure the cooking zones are switched off.
WARNING
• Steam cleaner is not to be used!
• Periodically check for dust under the
appliance, near the cooling air inlet or the
outlet openings. This could hinder the
ventilation and cooling of the electronic
module and decrease the effectiveness of
the hob.
To clean the hob, proceed as follows:
1.
Use a soft clean cloth, absorbent kitchen wipes or a
proprietary cleaner for glass ceramic hobs. Do not use
abrasive sponges and/or metal scouring pads.
2.
Food spills should be cleaned off before they bake
onto the glass ceramic surface. Sugar and foods with a
high sugar content damage the glass ceramic surface
and must be immediately removed using a scraper for
glass. Attention! Glass scrapers must be handled with
care.
3.
Remove any stubborn food residues with a scraper or
proprietary detergents.
4.
Salt, sugar and sand can scratch the glass ceramic hob:
Troubleshooting Guide
Before contacting After-sales Service:
•
Read and follow the instructions given in the section
“Operating instructions”.
•
Check that the electricity supply has not been shut off.
•
Clean the hob and dry it thoroughly.
•
Check that the knob is in the correct position: at
position “0” or the levels indicated by a continuous line,
the cooking zones do not receive any power.
•
If you use a pot that is not suitable for an induction
cooktop, the cooking zone it is placed on will switch off
after 1 minute. To resume operation, turn the knob to
“0”, place a pot that is suitable for the induction cooktop
(see section “Before use”) on the desired cooking zone
and turn the knob to the required level.
•
If the internal temperature of electronic parts is too
high, the hob will switch off automatically. Wait for the
hob to cool down before using it again. To resume
operation, turn the knob to “0” and then to the desired
power level
WARNING
!
If you are unable to turn the glass-ceramic hob off after using it, disconnect it immediately
from the power supply.
