The burner heads can be removed for cleaning.
NB Do not drop hot burner caps in cold water.
Because of the rapid cooling they might get damaged.
Lift off and soak for about 10 minutes in hot water with a little
detergent. After having cleaned and washed them, dry them
carefully.
Make sure that no burner holes are clogged.
Clean the burners once a week or more frequently if
necessary.
Make sure you have reassembled the burners correctly.
Pan supports can be washed by hand or in a dishwasher.
Remember to remove rubber feet (if fitted) prior to washing.
Refit them afterwards.
Do not use harsh abrasive cleaners or sharp metal scrapers to
clean the oven door glass since they can scratch the surface,
which may result in shattering of the glass.
Before cleaning the appliance, close the gas stopcock and
unplug appliance or disconnect power at the main circuit
breaker of the electrical system.
Do not clean the appliance surfaces when still hot.
Always clean off spillage as quickly as possible to prevent
burning on which will make removal more difficult. Wash with
a clean cloth soaked in hot soapy water, rinse and dry with a
soft cloth.

the oven.

water passing through the fan grill or ducts in the oven back .
Avoid letting grease deposit collect around the upper heating
element: it will cause smoking and may start a fire.
