ATTENTION!
Many ILVE gas burners now have a unique, easy clean nano-technological black coating. The burners are constructed
from durable brass to give a consistent flame even after long periods of use and the black coating is designed to repel
dirt and grease.
Some cleaning and washing methods are recommended in order to preserve the quality of the coating on the
burners:
• Allow the burners to cool to room temperature before cleaning. It is not recommended to immerse the burners in
cold water whilst they are still hot.
• Wash with warm water and a small amount of neutral detergent such as washing up liquid. Rub with a cloth or a
non-abrasive sponge.
• DO NOT use steel wool, scourers or abrasive sponges and cleaning products on the burners.
• DO NOT let food be charred onto the burner as this may cause stains or discolouration on the surface. Theses
traces do not affect the functionality of the product and may be removed in the following way: wash with warm
water and a non-abrasive cloth or sponge. For the most resistant stains it may be advisable to rub the affected
areas with warm white vinegar on a soft cloth or sponge.
• AVOID leaving the burners in contact with food for a long time, especially if acidic such as tomato sauce and citrus.
• AVOID contact with metal utensils - use only plastic or wooden objects.
• Do not wash in the dishwasher, a part of the burner is not coated and may be irreparably damaged.
• ALWAYS make sure that the holes in the outer crown are perfectly clean and free from dirt or grease ob-
structions.
