Important!
• When the power to
the hob is switched
off, there will be no
'hot surface' indication
but the cooking zone
may still be hot! Take
extreme care.
• Heavy-duty scourers,
some nylon scourers
and harsh/abrasive
cleaning agents may
scratch the glass.
always read the label
to check if your cleaner
or scourer is suitable.
• Never leave cleaning
residue on the hob:
the glass may become
stained.
• Remove stains left by
melts and sugary food
or spillovers as soon
as possible. If left to
cool on the glass,
they may be difficult
to remove or even
permanently damage
the glass surface.
• Cut hazard: when
the safety cover is
retracted, the blade
in a scraper is razor-
sharp. use with
extreme care and
always store safely
and out of reach of
children.
