Enamelled parts:
All enamelled parts should be cleaned with a sponge and soapy water or specific detergents.
Never use abrasive cleaning products. Dry thoroughly after cleaning.
Stainless steel top:
The stainless steel top should be cleaned with a damp cloth and proprietary detergents
commercially available. After rinsing, dry preferably with a chamois leather.
Grids:
The enamelled panstand grids of the cooktop are dishwasher safe.
Stainless steel panstand grids may take on a bluish tinge on parts around the burners as a result of

The burners, comprising two parts, can be removed and cleaned using suitable detergents.
After cleaning, dry the burners thoroughly and reposition them carefully in their seats.

Upon completion of cleaning, replace the burners accurately in their seats.
To prevent damaging the electric ignition, avoid using it when the burners are not in place.
