Finish Cooking
When you have finished using your cooktop, check that all dials are turned off.
5．Cooking Guidelines
Cookware
z Use heavy-gauge, flat, smooth-based cookware that matches the diameter of the
cooking zone.
z This will provide good contact with the glass and help reduce cooking times. Low
heat or slow cooking is often due to incorrect cookware size.
z Cookware with a stainless steel sandwich base or enamelled cast iron will give you
the best results.
z Saucepans or heavy frying pans with jagged edges or a rough base will scratch the
glass.
z Always lift pans off the cooktop - do not slide, or they may scratch the glass.
z Never use plastic or aluminium foil dishes on the cooktop.
z Aluminium and copper-based cookware will leave metallic stains on the cooktop. To
prevent these building up, clean the cooktop after every use following the
instructions in ‘Care and cleaning’. If the metallic stains are allowed to burn onto
the surface, they may react with the glass and may no longer be removable. They
don’t, however, affect performance.
z It is safe to place hot cookware from the oven, or another cooking zone, on the glass
surface when the surface is cool.
z Avoid placing anything on a hot cooking zone until it has cooled completely.
15
Important
Never leave the appliance unattended when in use. Boilover causes smoking and greasy
spillovers that may ignite.
Take care when deep-frying: oil or fat can overheat very quickly, particularly on a high
setting.
General Cooking Tips
z Using a lid will reduce cooking times through retaining the heat.
z Minimise the amount of liquid or fat to reduce cooking times.
z Start cooking on a high setting and reduce it when the food has come to the boil or
heated through.
z Even after a cooking zone has been turned off, its glass surface retains enough heat
to continue cooking. To avoid overcooking, remove pans from hot cooking zones
when the food is cooked.
6．Care and Cleaning
Important!
z For your safety, switch the power to the cooktop off at the wall before any cleaning.
16
In this case, there will be no ‘Hot surface’ indication, but the cooking zones may
still be hot! Take extreme care.
z Do not use a steam cleaner to clean your cooktop.
z Do not use scourers or any harsh/abrasive cleaning agents to clean your cooktop,
as these can scratch the ceramic glass or stainless steel.
What?
Everyday soiling on glass (fingerprints, marks, stains left by food or non-sugary spillovers
on the glass)
How?
1、Switch the power to the cooktop off at the wall.
2、Apply 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 at the wall.
Important!
1. 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.
2. 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.
3. Never leave cleaning residue on the cooktop: the glass may become stained.
What?
Non-sugary boilovers, spills and food stains on glass
burnt-on food or grease
pasta water, milk, soup
How?
1. Remove the soiling with ceramic cooktop cleaner using a sponge or non-abrasive
scourer suitable for ceramic glass.
2. Remove any excess cleaner and wipe dry with a clean cloth or paper towel.
3. Apply ceramic cooktop conditioner or protector following the instructions on the
dispenser. A micro fiber or ‘glass’ cloth is ideal for this.
IMPORTANT!
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 cleaner residue on the cooktop: the glass may become stained.
What?
Boilovers, melts, and hot sugary spills on the glass
How?
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:
17
Switch the power to the cooktop off at the wall.
Hold the blade or utensil at a 30
o angle and scrape the soiling or spill to a cool area of
the cooktop.
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.
Important
：
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.
What?
Metallic stains on glass caused by cookware with copper base aluminium base
How?
Follow the instructions for ‘Nonsugary boilovers, spills and food stains on glass’ above.
For stubborn metallic stains, try using a razor blade scraper suitable for ceramic glass
cooktops, holding it at a 30
o angle.
IMPORTANT
If the cooktop is not cleaned after every use and copper or aluminium stains are allowed
to burn onto the surface, they may react with the glass and no longer be removable. They
don’t, however, affect performance.
What?
Stainless steel strip
food stains fingerprints and marks
HOW?
Wipe the soiling off with a cloth using a mild household detergent or stainless steel
cleaner.
Wipe the surface dry using a micro fiber cloth.
For extra shine, use a suitable stainless steel polish.
IMPORTANT
Immediately wipe off any stainless steel cleaner if it is spilled onto the control dials.
Commercial stainless steel cleaners containing chlorine compounds are corrosive and
may damage the appearance of your cooktop. Always read the label to check if your
cleaner contains chlorine.
