12.CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
12.1 Cleaning stainless steel
To keep stainless steel in good condition, it must be cleaned regularly, after each time the cooker is
used, after leaving it to cool down.
12.2 Routine daily cleaning
When cleaning and caring for stainless steel surfaces, always use only specific products which do not
contain abrasives or chlorine-based acids.
Instructions for use: pour the product onto a damp cloth and wipe over the surface, then rinse
thoroughly and dry with a soft cloth or chamois leather.
12.3 Food stains or spills
Never use metal scouring pads or sharp scrapers; they will damage surfaces.
Use ordinary non-abrasive products with the aid of wooden or plastic utensils if necessary.
Rinse thoroughly and dry with a soft cloth or chamois leather.
Do not allow spills of foods with high sugar content (e.g. jam) to dry inside the oven. If they dry
for too long, they might damage the enamel coating of the inside of the oven.
12.4 Cleaning the hob components
12.4.1The glass lid
If liquids are spilt onto the closed lid, wipe them off carefully with a cloth before opening it.
12.4.2The pan stands
Remove the pan stands and wash them in warm water with a non-abrasive detergent, taking care to
remove all deposits. Put them back on the hob.
The continuous contact between the pan stands and the flame may cause deterioration in the enamel in
the areas exposed to heat over time. This is an absolutely natural phenomenon which does not impair
this component's operation at all.
12.4.3The burner caps and flame diffuser rings
The burner caps and flame diffuser rings can be removed for easier cleaning;
wash them in hot water and non-abrasive detergent, taking care to remove all
deposits, and wait for them to dry completely.
WARNING: never wash these components in the dishwasher.
They may be left to soak in hot water and detergent.
Replace the flame diffuser rings, checking that they are correctly in place with
their respective burner caps, making sure that the holes A in the flame diffusers
are aligned with the plugs and thermocouples.
12.4.4The plugs and thermocouples
For best performance, on the relevant models the ignition plugs and thermocouples must
always be kept thoroughly clean. Check them frequently and if necessary clean them with
a wet cloth. Remove any dry residues with a wooden toothpick or a needle.
