Bosch's official guidance describes cleaning cooled glass with a suitable product and damp cloth, and removing stubborn residue with a shallow-angle scraper. Do not apply this method to gas burners or unrelated coatings. Your model manual and any damage warning take priority.

1. Confirm this is a smooth glass induction or electric cooktop. Read the model's approved cleaning-tool instructions first; gas burners and other coatings require different care.
2. Switch off after cooking and check the residual-heat indicator. Bosch's routine cleaning steps assume a cooled cooktop. Never touch or wipe a hot surface.
3. Remove crumbs and dust with a soft cloth. Do not scrape with a kitchen knife, steel wool or an abrasive scouring pad.
4. Apply a small amount of manufacturer-compatible glass-cooktop cleaner. Wipe gently with a soft cloth, then remove remaining cleaner with a clean damp cloth according to instructions.
5. If residue remains stuck after cooling, use only an approved glass scraper carefully. Bosch describes a shallow angle of about 20–30 degrees. Do not force scraping if your model prohibits it or you are unsure.
6. Wipe once more with a damp cloth and finish dry. Stop using a cracked or malfunctioning cooktop and arrange service. Melted sugar spills may require separate urgent model-specific guidance.
