• Clean the appliance using warm water, liquid detergent, and a
soft cloth.
• Do not use any abrasive or sharp utensils or other objects.
Burnt or dried food residues should be moistened using a
damp cloth and softened with appropriate detergent.
• Stainless steel parts should be cleaned using special-purpose
detergents. Use a dry, highly-absorbent cloth to apply a thin
layer of detergent on a dry and cool surface, and rub gently in
the direction of surface treatment pattern. Use a damp cloth
and a detergent to clean stubborn stains; then, use a dry cloth
to achieve to polish the surface until glossy. Do not use the
same (stainless steel) detergents to clean aluminum parts.
• Use warm water with some dishwashing detergent to clean the
area around the cooking rings (or hotplates)
. Before doing
so, use a sponge to soften any stubborn residues.
•
All dirty cooking zones
should be cleaned thoroughly
immediately after use. If the cooking zones are less stained, it
suffi ces to wipe them with a damp cloth soaked in water and
some detergent. If the hotplate is heavily soiled, use a steel
sponge (wire scrubber) soaked with detergent. After cleaning,
the cooking zones should always be wiped dry.
• Salt-containing liquids, dishes that have boiled over, or
moisture, can damage the cooking zones. Therefore, always
wipe the cooking zones clean and dry.
• To
condition the cooking zones
, occasionally use some
sewing machine oil, or conventional products for cleaning and
care, available in the market. Never use butter, bacon / lard,
or similar substance (risk of corrosion). If the cooking zone
is slightly warm, the detergent will penetrate the pores more
quickly.
•
Hotplate rings are made of stainless steel
; due to thermal
load during cooking, they may discolor slightly to yellow. This
phenomenon is a result of physical processes. Yellow spots
can be restored by conventional metal cleaning detergents. Do
not use aggressive utensils for cleaning the dishes, as these
will scratch the rings.
