Cleaning and Maintenance
Important: The manufacturer declines all liability for possible damage caused by the use of
unsuitable products to clean the appliance.
Attention!
The appliance gets very hot, mainly around the cooking areas. It is very important that
children are not left alone in the kitchen when you are cooking.
Do not use a steam cleaner because the moisture can get into the appliance thus make it
unsafe.
GENERAL ADVICE
•
Before you begin cleaning, you must
ensure that the appliance is switched
off at the cooker switch.
• The periodical lubrication of the gas taps
must be done only by specialised per-
sonnel.
• If a tap becomes stiff, do not force; con-
tact your local After Sales Service Centre.
• Be very careful that no water penetrates
inside the appliance.
• It is advisable to clean when the applian-
ce is cold and especially when cleaning
the enamelled parts.
• Avoid leaving alkaline or acidic substan-
ces (lemon juice, vinegar, etc.) on the
surfaces.
•
Avoid using cleaning products with a
chlorine or acidic base.
•
Important: The use of suitable protec-
tive clothing/gloves is recommended
when handling or cleaning this ap-
pliance.
•
Under no circumstances should any
external covers be removed for servi-
cing or maintenance except by suita-
ble qualified personnel.
•
Clean surfaces with a damp cloth and
use gentle, neutral cleaning products.
Dry with a clean, dry cloth.
•
IMPORTANT:
Do not use any abrasive
products (e.g. certain types of sponge)
and/or aggressive products (e.g. caustic
soda, products containing corrosive sub-
stances), which could cause irreparable
surface damage.
WARNING:
When correctly installed, your product me-
ets all safety requirements laid down for
this type of product category.
However special care should be taken
around the rear or the underneath of the
appliance as these areas are not designed
or intended to be touched and may contain
sharp or rough edges, that may cause injury.
CLEANING
•
Stainless steel hob: Spillage on the
hob can usually be removed by a damp
soapy cloth. More obstinate stains can be
removed by using a proprietary stainless
steel cleaning product that does not
contain chlorine or acidic base.
•
Control panel: Clean very carefully with
water and neutral soap; the cloth used
must be rinsed well and must be free of any
cleaning chemicals to avoid damaging any
screen print on the facia.
•
Painted surfaces: Clean very carefully
with water and neutral soap; the cloth
used must be rinsed well and must be free
of any cleaning chemicals.
•
Pan stands & burner caps: Clean with a
sponge and soapy water or
proprietary
cream cleaner. Alway dry throughly. DO
NOT PUT IN THE DISHWASHER.
•
Burner bodies (aluminium alloy):
They
should be cleaned with soapy water
and a clean cloth. For stubborn stains
a proprietary cream or stainless steel
cleaner may be used; however to maintain
a uniform finish we would recommend the
whole area is cleaned. NOTE: Please ensure
the slots/castlellations are kept free of the
any material/cleaner.
•
Gaskets fitted below control knobs:
Check they are well fitted and correctly in
place.
