paper. To remove tougher dirt, use the same
cleaning methods as for glass, with specific
detergents. If a pan boils over onto the hob,
use a spatula to remove the deposit formed.
Sugar or syrup must be removed immedi-
ately before it forms caramel on the glass.
Any residues of aluminium foil or plastic film
wrappings accidentally placed on the hob
while it is still hot must also be removed at
once. Water marks and traces of scale can
be removed with white wine vinegar. Always
remember to rinse and dry the surface with
kitchen paper after use.
- Never use abrasive or corrosive detergents,
such as oven sprays, degreasers, rust-re-
movers, powder polishing detergents or
abrasive sponges.
- Do not allow grains of sand to be left on
the hob when cleaning vegetables, for ex-
ample, as they may scratch the surface.
- Do not slide pans with rough bottoms over
the hob; they may mark or even scratch
the glass.

- Always disconnect the power supply before
any work inside the hob or where live parts
