Cleaning and care

5 Cleaning and care

• Switch the hob oﬀ and let it cool down before you clean

it.

• Never clean the glass ceramic hob with a steam clea-

ner or similar appliance!

• When cleaning make sure that you only wipe lightly

over the ON/OFF key. The hob may otherwise be acci-

dentally switched on!

5.1 Glass ceramic hob

Important! Never use aggressive cleaning agents such as

rough scouring agent, abrasive saucepan cleaners, rust

and stain removers etc.

Cleaning after use

1. Always clean the entire hob when it has become soiled.

It is recommended that you do so every time the hob

is used. Use a damp cloth and a little washing up liquid

for cleaning. Then dry the hob with a clean dry cloth to

ensure that there is no detergent left on the surface of

the hob.

Weekly cleaning

2. Clean the entire hob thoroughly once a week with com-

mercial glass ceramic cleaning agents. Please follow

the manufacturer's instructions carefully. When applied,

the cleaning agent will coat the hob in a protective ﬁ lm

which is resistant to water and dirt. All the dirt will re-

main on the ﬁ lm and can then easily be removed. Then

rub the hob dry with a clean cloth. Make sure that no

cleaning agent remains on the surface of the hob since

this will react aggressively when the hob is heated up

and will change the surface.

5.2 Speciﬁ c soiling

Heavy soiling and stains (limescaling and shiny, mo-

ther-of-pearl-type stains) can best be

removed when the hob is still slightly

warm. Use commercial cleaning

agents to clean the hob. Proceed as

outlined under Item 2.

First soak food which has boiled

over with a wet cloth and then remove

remaining soiling with a special glass

scraper for glass ceramic hobs. Then clean the hob again

as described under Item 2.

Burnt sugar and melted plastic must be removed imme-

diately, when they are still hot, with a glass scraper. Then

clean the hob again as described under Item 2.

Grains of sand which may get onto the hob when you

peel potatoes or clean lettuce may scratch the surface of

the hob when you move pots around. Make sure that no

grains of sand are left on the hob.

Changes in the colour of the hob will not aﬀ ect the func-

tion and the stability of the glass ceramic material. These

colour changes are not changes in the material but food

residues which were not removed and which have burnt

into the surface.

Shiny spots result when the base of the cookware rubs

on the surface of the hob, particularly when cookware

with an aluminium base or unsuitable cleaning agents are

used. They are diﬃ cult to remove with standard cleaning

agents. You may need to repeat the cleaning process

several times. In time, the decoration will wear oﬀ and dark

stains will appear as a result of using aggressive cleaning

agents and faulty pan bases.

5.3 Hob fan

Cleaning the metal grease ﬁ lters

Clean the metal grease ﬁ lters in the dishwasher or in

mild soapy water at least once a month or in the event of

excessive grease deposits and/or intensive use.

To remove the ﬁ lter, lift up the fan cover and lift the U-sha-

ped stainless steel ventilation plate in the suction intake

opening upwards to remove it from the fan. Now remove

the ﬁ lter. To do so, press the lock in the recessed handle

downwards and remove the ﬁ lter.

The ﬁ lter can be rinsed in a dishwasher. Stand the ﬁ lter

upright in the dishwasher. Please use only rinse aid that is

suitable for use with aluminium in order to avoid damaging

and discolouring the ﬁ lters.

Never rinse right next to glasses or light-coloured porce-

lain.

After rinsing the ﬁ lter, dry it and replace it in the fan. Please

make sure that the recessed handle is visible after you

have replaced the ﬁ lter. If possible, wipe the easily acces-

sible inside of the fan with a cloth dampened with deter-

gent every time you replace a ﬁ lter, while at the same time

paying attention to protruding parts in the inside of the fan.

Fan cleaning and care

The fan is best cleaned every time you clean the ﬁ lters.

Condensation water may collect under the ﬁ lter after water

has boiled rapidly with the lid of the pot removed. This is

quite normal. The water should, however, be removed and

the inside of the fan cleaned.

The ventilation openings in the cover ensure that residual

moisture resulting from cooking and cleaning can escape

if necessary when the fan is not in operation and the cover

is on.

Please clean the ﬁ lter and the inside of the fan if unplea-

sant remaining odours escape.

The fan is best cleaned with a soft damp cloth and mild

soapy water.

Service

The ﬁ lter must remain accessible. Replace the charcoal

ﬁ lter mats of a charcoal ﬁ lter every 5 to 24 months.

Replace the charcoal ﬁ lter mats of plasma ﬁ lters at least

every 5 years. To do so, open the cover of the casing and

replace the charcoal ﬁ lter mats.
