CLEANING THE APPLIANCE
Before cleaning the appliance, it should be disconnected from the power supply and turn off the main gas
feeder valve.
Cleaning the work surface:
Periodically clean the burner heads, the enamelled steel grids, the enamelled covers and the flame caps using warm
soapy water. Then those parts should be rinsed and thoroughly dried.
Any liquid that overflows from pots must always be removed using a rag.
If it becomes difficult to open or close a valve, do not force it, but immediately request the assistance of the
technical service personnel.
Cleaning the ceramic hob:
Sefore carrying out any operations, disconnect the appliance from the electricity supply.
The ceramic hob must be cleaned regularly, preferably atter each use, when the residual heat waming lights have gone
out.
Any marks left by the use of pans with aluminium bottoms can be wiped off with a cloth dipped in vinegar.
If burnt residues are left after cooking, remove them with the scraper provided, rinse with water and dry thoroughly with a
clean cloth. Regular use of the scraper considerably reduces the use of chemicals for daily cleaning of the hob.
In any case, abrasive or corrosive cleaners (e.g. powder products, ovencleaner sprays, stain removers and metal
scouring pads) must never be used.
Cleaning the enamelled parts:
To maintain the original features of the enamelled parts they should be cleaned frequently with soapy water. Never use
abrasive powders. Do not leave acidic or alkaline substances on the enamelled parts (vinegar, lemon juice, salt, tomato
sauce, etc.) and do not wash the enamelled parts while they are still hot.
Cleaning the STAINLESS steel parts:
Clean the parts with soapy water and then dry them with a soft cloth. The shine is maintained by periodically using
special products that generally are found in the market. Never use abrasive powders.
Cleaning the burner flame caps:
Since the flame caps are resting on the burner, to clean them just remove them from their seat and wash them with
soapy water. After they have been thoroughly dried and having checked that the holes are not clogged, they can be
replaced in their proper position.
Cleaning the inner glass door: Clean the glass with warm soapy water using a sponge. A spatula can be used to
remove burner fat if used gently.
ATTENTION: while cleaning the door make sure to avoid any spillage in the venting holes on the top part of the door. To
clean inside the door it is necessary to disassemble the door through a service engineer.
ATTENTION: for further details about cleaning of the appliance, please contact your applliance retailer.
