4.3 Cleaning the hob
Cooking hob grids
Remove the grids and clean them in
lukewarm water and non-abrasive
detergent. Make sure to remove any
encrustations. Dry them thoroughly and
return them to the hob.
Flame-spreader crowns and burner caps
For easier cleaning, the flame-spreader
crowns and the burner caps can be
removed. Wash them in hot water and non-
abrasive detergent. Carefully remove any
encrustation, then wait until they are
perfectly dry. Refit the flame-spreader
crowns making sure that they are correctly
positioned in their housings with their
respective burner caps.
Igniters and thermocouples
For correct operation the igniters and
thermocouples must always be perfectly
clean. Check them frequently and clean
them with a damp cloth if necessary.
Remove any dry residues with a wooden
toothpick or a needle.
The continuous contact between
the grids and the flame can cause
modifications to the enamel over
time in those parts exposed to
heat. This is a completely natural
phenomenon which has no effect
on the operation of this
component.
