10 Care and Cleaning
What?
How?
Important!
Everyday soiling on
glass (fingerprints,
marks, stains left by
food or non-sugary
spillovers on the
glass)
1. Switch the power to the cooktop off.
2. Apply a cooktop cleaner while the glass is still
warm (but not hot!)
3. Rinse and wipe dry with a clean cloth or
paper towel.
4. Switch the power to the cooktop back on.
• When the power to the cooktop 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 cooktop: the glass may become
stained.
Boilovers, melts, and
hot sugary spills on
the glass
Remove these immediately with a fish slice,
palette knife or razor blade scraper suitable for
ceramic glass cooktops, but beware of hot
cooking zone surfaces:
1. Switch the power to the cooktop off at the
wall.
2. Hold the blade or utensil at a 30° angle and
scrape the soiling or spill to a cool area of the
cooktop.
3. Clean the soiling or spill up with a dish cloth
or paper towel.
4. Follow steps 2 to 4 for ‘Everyday soiling on
glass’ above.
• 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.
Spillovers on the
touch controls
1. Switch the power to the cooktop off.
2. Soak up the spill
3. Wipe the touch control area with a clean
damp sponge or cloth.
4. Wipe the area completely dry with a paper
towel.
5. Switch the power to the cooktop back on.
• The cooktop may beep and turn itself off, and the touch controls
may not function while there is liquid on them. Make sure you wipe
the touch control area dry before turning the cooktop back on.
11 Hints and Tips
Problem
Possible causes
What to do
The cooktop cannot
Be turned on.
No power.
Make sure the cooktop is connected to the power supply and that it
is switched on.
Check whether there is a power outage in your home or area. If
you’ve checked everything and the problem persists, call a qualified
technician.
The touch controls are
unresponsive.
The controls are locked.
Unlock the controls. See section
‘Using your ceramic cooktop’ for instructions.
The touch controls are
difficult to operate.
There may be a slight film of
water over the controls or you
may be using the tip of your
finger when touching the
controls.
Make sure the touch control area is dry and use the ball of your
finger when touching the controls.
The glass is being
scratched.
Rough-edged cookware.
Unsuitable, abrasive scourer or
cleaning products being used.
Use cookware with flat and smooth bases. See ‘Choosing the right
cookware’.
See ‘Care and cleaning’.
Some pans make
crackling or clicking
noises.
This may be caused by the
construction of your cookware
(layers of different metals
vibrating differently).
This is normal for cookware and
does not indicate a fault.
The induction hob makes
a low humming noise
when used on a high heat
setting.
This is caused by the technology
of induction cooking.
This is normal, but the noise should quieten down or disappear
completely when you decrease the heat setting.
Fan noise coming from
the induction hob.
A cooling fan built into your induction hob has
come on to prevent the electronics from
overheating. It may continue to
run even after you’ve turned the
induction hob off.
This is normal and needs no action. Do not switch the power to the
induction hob off at the wall while the fan is running.
