Cleaning and care
33
Danger of burns!
The burners must be turned off and
the rangetop must be cooled.
Danger of injury!
The steam from a steam cleaner
could reach electrical components
and cause a short circuit.
Do not use a steam cleaner to clean
the rangetop.
All rangetop surfaces can become
discolored or damaged if unsuitable
cleaning agents are used.
All surfaces are susceptible to
scratching.
Remove any cleaning agent residues
immediately.
Always clean the rangetop after each
use. Allow it to cool down before clean-
ing.
To better maintain your appliance avoid
the following:
– cleaners containing soda, ammonia,
thinners, or chlorides
– descaling agents
– Stain or rust removers
– Abrasive cleaning agents (e.g., pow-
der or cream cleansers, pumice
stones)
– solvent-based cleaners
– dishwasher detergent
– grill and oven sprays
– glass cleaning agents
– hard, abrasive brushes or sponges
(e.g. pot scrubbers or scrub sponges,
sponges which have previously been
used with abrasive cleaning agents)
– sharp objects
(these could damage the seals be-
tween the ceramic and the frame or
between the frame and the counter-
top).
