Cleaning and care

 Danger of burning due to hot
surfaces.
The cooktop surface, grates, and
burners will be hot after use.
Allow the cooktop to cool down be-
fore cleaning it.
 Risk of damage due to moisture
ingress.
The steam from a steam cleaning ap-
pliance could reach electrical com-
ponents and cause a short circuit.
Do not use a steam cleaner to clean
the cooktop.
All surfaces could be discolored or
damaged if unsuitable cleaning
agents are used. All surfaces are
susceptible to scratching.
Remove all cleaning agent residues
immediately.
Do not clean with any abrasive or
sharp pointed objects.
Food boiling over can cause discol-
oration of the burner components.
Remove any soiling and salt and
sugar splashes immediately.
Pressing the knob generates a spark
on the ignitor. Do not press the knob
while you are cleaning or touching
the cooktop or a burner in the vicinity
of an ignitor.
