CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
GENERAL
Cleaning and maintenance should be carried out with the appliance cold especially when cleaning the enameled parts. Avoid leaving
alkaline or acid substances (lemon juice, vinegar etc.) on the surfaces. Avoid using acid or chlorine-based cleaning products.
To extend the life of the built-in gas hob, it is absolutely indispensable that it be cleaned carefully and thoroughly on a frequent
basis, keeping in mind the following:
ENAMELLED PARTS
All of the enameled parts must be washed only with a sponge and soapy water or with non-abrasive products
BURNERS AND GRIDS
These parts can be removed and cleaned with appropriate products. After cleaning the burners and their flame distributors must be well
dried and correctly replaced. It is very important to check that the burner flame distributor(8) and the burner cap(7) has been correctly
positioned (
fig. 2) -
failure to do so can cause serious problems.
Check that the igniter(5) is always clean to ensure trouble-free sparking. Check that the thermocouple(safety device 6) is always clean to
ensure correct operation of the safety valves (for models with safety device).
STAINLESS STEEL

for an extended period of time, it is recommended that these parts be rinsed thoroughly with water and then dried well, It is also a good
idea to clean up any spills;
Both the safety device(6) and igniter(5) must be very carefully cleaned
