Cleaning the glass ceramic hob
GB
Before cooking, the surface of the hob should be cleaned
using a damp cloth, to remove dust or residue from foods
cooked previously. The surface of the hob should be cleaned
regularly with a solution of warm water and non-abrasive
detergent. It will occasionally be necessary to use special
cleaning products for glass ceramic hobs. First, remove
all food residues and traces of grease from the hob using
a special cleaning scraper, for example
(not
supplied). Clean the hob when it is warm; use a suitable
cleaning product and absorbent kitchen paper, polish with
a damp cloth and dry. Aluminium foil, plastic objects or
synthetic materials which are accidentally melted on the
hob, even sugar or foods with a high sugar content, should
be removed from the hot cooking zone immediately, using
a scraper. Special cleaning products form a transparent
protective layer which repels dirt. This also protects the
surface from potential damage caused by foods with a high
sugar content. Never use abrasive products or sponges;
even aggressive chemical detergents such as oven sprays
or stain removal products should be avoided.
