11. CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
11.1 Cleaning stainless steel and enamelled versions
To maintain stainless steel in good condition it must be cleaned regularly
after each use, once it has cooled down.
11.1.1 Ordinary Daily Cleaning
To clean and preserve the stainless steel surfaces, always use only
specific products that do not contain abrasives or chlorine-based acids.
How to use: pour the product on a damp cloth and wipe the surface,
rinse thoroughly and dry with a soft cloth or deerskin.
11.1.2 Food stains or residues
Do not use metallic sponges or sharp scrapers: they will
damage the surface.
Use normal non-abrasive products for steel, and a wooden
or plastic tool if necessary.
Rinse thoroughly and dry with a soft cloth or deerskin.
Do not allow residues of sugary foods (such as jam) to set
inside the oven. If left to set for too long, they might damage
the enamel lining of the oven.
11.2 Cleaning of the hob components
11.2.1 Grids
Remove the grids and clean them in warm water with a non-abrasive
detergent, taking care to remove any incrustations. Replace them on the
hob.
Continuous contact of the grids with the flame can cause the paint near
the hot areas to be altered. This is completely natural and does not
compromise the functionality of the component.
11.2.2 Burner caps and flame cap crowns
The caps and flame-spreader crowns are extractable
to facilitate cleaning. Wash them in hot water with non-
abrasive detergent, taking care to remove any
incrustations, and wait until they are perfectly dry.
WARNING: do not wash these components in the
dishwasher.
Replace the flame-spreader crowns, checking that they
are positioned in their housing with their respective
caps, taking care that flame-spreader holes A
correspond to the spark plugs and the thermocouples.
