Cleaning electrode
A dirty electrode can cause malfunctions with ignition
or flame monitoring.
Clean with brush included if necessary. The electrode
is sensitive; clean carefully and don't twist or damage
it.
Don't turn on the stovetop during cleaning.
Burned-on grime
For stubborn, burned-on grime, you can order a grille
cleaner gel from your specialist shop or our customer
service (order number 463582). It is suitable for pan
supports, burner parts and the stainless steel
stovetop. Leave on overnight if necessary. Bear in
mind the notes on the cleaner.
Discoloration of burners
After long use, the burners (burner lid, burner ring
and burner head) turn darker due to natural oxidation.
Proceed as follows to eliminate this discoloration:
1 Prepare a solution of equal amounts of white
vinegar with a maximum of 8% acid (typical
household vinegar) and warm water.
2 Immerse the burner parts in the solution for a
maximum of 10 minutes. Eliminate stubborn stains
with a cloth or sponge.
3 Then rinse the burner parts thoroughly with clear
water and dry them well prior to next use.
,
CAUTION: Too strongly concentrated solution
or too long of contact with vinegar will damage
the surface of burner parts!
