Caution: Prior to cleaning or maintenance, always disconnect the power supply.

1) HOB
The surface of the hob, pan supports, enamelled burner caps and burner heads need to be
cleaned regularly with warm soapy water, rinsed and then dried well to keep them in good
condition.
Never clean when the top and components are still warm. Do not use metal or abrasive
pads, abrasive powders or corrosive spray products. Never leave vinegar, coffee, milk, salty
water, lemon or tomato juice for any length of time on the surfaces.
WARNINGS
Follow the instruction below before remounting the parts:
Check that the heads burners and the relative burner caps, are correctly positioned in
their housings.
Check that burner head slots have not become clogged by foreign bodies.
If it happens after re-installation that you find it difficult to on and off the hob, do not
apply excessive force to do so but call for technical assistance.
If any liquid spills over the hob, it must always be removed with a sponge.

before spillage becomes cold or dries up. Acidic materials like vinegar and citric juices etc
can damage the most resistant surfaces. If a spill occurs wipe it immediately.
