Cleaning the pizza plate
The pizza plate (where included) should be washed separately according to the
following instructions:
Pyrolytic models:
leave the pizza stone inside and activate the pyrolysis
function, then at the end, when the stone has cooled down to lukewarm, wipe it
with a damp microfibre cloth to remove any residues.
Multifunction models:
the stone must be cleaned after every use. Do not heat
it again if it has any encrustations.
To clean, pour 55 cc of vinegar onto the stone, leave it to act for 10 minutes,
then remove it by wiping with a metallic mesh or abrasive sponge.
Rinse with water then leave to dry.
•
Before cleaning, remove any dirt burnt onto the stone with the aid of a metal
spatula or a scraper of the kind used for cleaning glass ceramic hobs.
•
For best results, the stone must still be warm; otherwise, wash it in hot water.
•
Use metal mesh sponges or abrasive scotch-brite pads, dipped in lemon or
vinegar.
•
Never use detergents.
•
Never wash in the dishwasher.
•
Never leave the stone to soak.
•
The damp stone must not be used for at least 8 hours after the end of the
cleaning procedures.
•
Over time, slight cracks may appear on the surface of the stone. This is due
to the normal expansion of the stone's finishing glazes at high temperatures.
