Hints on the glass ceramic grill
Ceramic glass is insensitive to
temperature shock and very robust,
however it is not unbreakable. Hard
and sharp objects, in particular, can
damage the cooking surface if they fall
on it.
Warning
If visible cracks appear in the surface,
the appliance must be disconnected
from the mains immediately.
Spillages of plastics and other meltable
materials such as sugar and food
containing sugar (also applies to food
with a natural sugar content to which
no extra sugar has been added), such
as marmalade, jam, fruit juice, etc.
must be wiped off the ceramic surface
while still hot.
Failure to do this could cause the
griddle to peel and crack.
Use the enclosed glass scraper and
polish with a ceramic glass cream
cleaner afterwards.
Any cooking utensils which have been
into contact with the above mentioned
materials must be cleaned thoroughly
before being placed on the ceramic
surface.
The warranty does not cover
damage to the glass ceramic griddle
which can be attributed to any of the
above events.
7
Cleaning and maintenance
For reasons of hygiene and
safety, the griddle must be
kept clean.
Grease stains and spilled
food generate smoke when
heated, and can even cause
fire.
Splashguard
The splashguard can be removed to
make it easier to clean the surface.
What to do:
1. Hold the splashguard as shown
in the diagram
2. Lift the splashguard straight up
3. Clean the top surface as
described in “cleaning the steel
surface”
Be aware of the two retaining
pegs, which are sharp.
4. Replace the splashguard in
position ENSURE that it is
fitted the correct way round.
Never use hard or sharp
implements to lift off the
splashguard.
Do not wash the splashguard
in a dishwasher.
The hob must not be used
with the splashguard off.

5. Heat the glass griddle until the
water boils, brushing with a stiff
brush as you do so.
6. Switch off the glass griddle when
the water boils. Continue cleaning
with the stiff brush.
7. Allow the glass griddle to cool
(only cool enough so you can
touch it).
Stainless steel surfaces
Perform daily cleaning with a slightly
damp cloth. For more severe soiling,
use a liquid scouring cream. Always
clean the steel in the direction of the
steel finish. To ensure that the steel
retains its shine, it is recommended
that you use a polishing agent for
stainless steel on a regular basis.
8. Remove the dirty water with
kitchen roll.
9. Wipe the surface with a clean, wet
cloth.
Always polish in the direction of the
steel finish (cross-wise).
10. Wipe the surface with a dry cloth.
11. Apply a thin coat of cooking oil to
the glass griddle and rub in.
Never use steel wool, metal sponges or
other abrasive cleaning agents.
The ceramic glass griddle
The glass griddle must be cleaned each
time it has been used.
1. Pour water onto the glass griddle,
add a little washing-up liquid, and
scrape off as much as possible using
the scraper. Remove the dirty water
with kitchen roll.
2. Use the rough side of a scouring
sponge to apply more water and
detergent (washing-up liquid or
liquid scouring agent) to the glass
surface. Scour thoroughly.
3. Remove the dirty water with kitchen
roll.
4. Apply more water and washing-up
liquid, using the rough side of a
