Instructions for the user
9.4.2 Pan stands
Remove the pan stands and clean them with lukewarm water and non-abrasive detergent, making sure
to remove any encrustations. Dry them thoroughly and return them to the hob.
Continuous contact between the pan stands 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.
9.4.3 Burner caps and flame-spreader crowns
The burner caps and flame-spreader crowns can be removed for easier
cleaning. Wash them in warm water and a non-abrasive detergent making
sure to remove any encrustation, then wait until they are perfectly dry.
Refit the flame-spreader crowns, making sure that they are correctly in
place with their respective burner caps, and ensuring that the holes

in
the flame-spreaders are aligned with the igniters and thermocouples.
Do no wash these parts in a dishwasher.
9.4.4 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.
Do not use cleaning products containing chlorine, ammonia or bleach on steel parts or parts with
metallic finishes on the surface (e.g. anodizing, nickel- or chromium-plating).
