Switching the appliance off
Disconnect your appliance from the electricity supply
before carrying out any work on it.
Cleaning the appliance
! Do not use abrasive or corrosive detergents, stain
removers, anti-rust products, powder detergents or
sponges with abrasive surfaces: these may scratch
the surface.
! Never use steam cleaners or pressure cleaners on
the appliance.
It is usually enough to wash the hob with a damp
sponge and dry it with absorbent kitchen roll.
The flame spreaders should be washed frequently
with hot water and detergent, taking care to
eliminate any scale.
In the hob equipped with automatic lighting, the
terminal part of the electronic instant lighting
devices should be cleaned frequently and the gas
outlet holes on the flame spreaders should be
checked to make sure they are free of any
obstructions.
Stainless steel may become marked if it comes into
contact with very hard water or harsh detergents
(containing phosphorous) for long periods of time.
After cleaning, it is advisable to rinse thoroughly
and dry. It is also recommended that drops of water
be dried.
