04 - Cleaning & maintenance
Ceramic glass hobs
• The ceramic hob top can be cleaned using a
clean, damp cloth or kitchen paper. Do not
use a used dishcloth or sponge as they can
leavealmofdetergentonthesurfacewhich

the elements are cooled fully to avoid steam
burns.

restore the surface, but use sparingly to avoid
coating the hob top too thickly. Too much
cream cleaner will lead to discolouration. Use
a dry, clean cloth to polish the surface.

can be used.
• Do not use steam cleaners or high pressure
cleaning equipment.
• Regular cleaning will prevent any salts or
minerals from accumulating on your hob and
discolouring the glass.
• Wipe any spillage as soon as possible.
• Clean the hob top as regularly as possible, this
