Cleaning the glass-ceramic surface
The glass-ceramic surface must be cleaned regularly, preferably after every use.

provided, rinse with water and dry thoroughly with a clean cloth. Regular use
of the scraper significantly reduces the need to use chemical products for daily
cleaning of the hotplate. Never under any circumstances use abrasive or
corrosive detergents (e.g. abrasive powders, oven sprays, stain removers or
metallic scourers).

Cleaning the tray
Below the hotplate, at the front, is a steel tray designed to collect the grease
and juices that are produced when cooking meat and which drain away
through the hole “A”. Before cooking, it is advisable to pour some water into
the tray to facilitate subsequent cleaning operations.
The tray can be removed completely by sliding it out of its runners, and
washed in the dishwasher.

closure of the lid may become slack. In this case, simply use a D4 Allen key to
re-tighten the clutch mechanism on the underside of the lid.
