Cleaning and Maintenance

 

NOTE: Cleaning and maintenance operations must only be carried out when the cooktop is cool (all residual heat indicators are 
off). 
The appliance should be disconnected from the power outlet or turned off at your isolation switch before commencing any 
cleaning process. 
Do not use plastic, plastic coated or aluminium cooking equipment on this appliance. 
CLEANING THE COOKTOP 
Before cleaning the cooktop, first isolate the cooktop from the power. Once done, ensure that there is no residual heat 
stored in the appliance. Vitroceramic glass is very resistant to high temperature and overheating. If there is residual heat 
stored in the appliance, the related residual heat icon will be on. To avoid burns, let the appliance cool down. 
Remove all spilt food and fat with a clean damp, warm, slightly soapy, dishcloth. Rinse cloth and wipe cooktop again 
until clean, then wipe the cooktop dry with a clean tea towel or dry soft cloth. 
If aluminium foil or plastic items are accidentally melted on the vitroceramic surface, they should be immediately 
removed from the hot cooking area with a scraper specifically for vitroceramic glass. This will avoid any possible 
damage to the surface. This also applies to sugar or food containing sugar that may be spilled on the cooktop. 
In the event of other food melted on the cooktop surface, remove the dirt when the appliance has cooled down. Use 
cleaner for glass ceramic or stainless steel when cleaning the surface. 
Do not use abrasive sponges to clean the vitroceramic surface. These materials may damage the surface. Do not 
use chemical detergents, sprays or spot removers on the vitroceramic surface. These materials may cause fire or 
the vitroceramic colour to fade. Clean with a damp, warm, slightly soapy, dishcloth. 
WARNING: Using cookware that is too large can cause discolouration or damage to the cooktop surface around the heat 
zones, which is NOT covered under warranty. 

 

Troubleshooting 

Problem 

Possible causes 

What to do 

The cooktop cannot  
Be turned on. 

No power. 
 

Make sure the cooktop is connected to the 
power supply and that it is switched on. 
Check whether there is a power outage in 
your home or area. If you’ve checked 
everything and the problem persists, call a 
qualified technician. 
 

The touch controls 
are unresponsive. 
 

The controls are locked. 
 

Unlock the controls. See section ‘Operating 
Instructions’ for direction. 

The touch controls 
are difficult to 
operate. 

There may be a slight film of water over 
the controls or you may be using the tip 
of your finger when touching the 
controls. 
 

Make sure the touch control area is dry and 
use the ball of your finger when pressing the 
controls. 

The glass is being 
scratched. 
 

Rough-edged cookware. 
 

Use cookware with flat and smooth bases.  
 

Unsuitable, abrasive scourer or 
cleaning products being used. 

Use only recommended cleaners. 
 

Some pans make 
crackling or clicking 
noises. 
 

This may be caused by the 
construction of your cookware 
(layers of different metals 
vibrating differently). 

This is normal for cookware and 
does not indicate a fault.
