MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING
Cleaning your gas hob
The hob is best cleaned whilst it is still warm, as
spillage can be removed more easily than if it is left
to cool.
The pan supports, burner caps and burner crowns
can be lifted off for cleaning. Use hot detergent water
and remove stubborn marks with a mild, non-scratch
paste cleaner. A well moistened soap impregnated
steel wool pad can be used with caution if the marks
are particularly difficult to remove.
The burner crown may lose its matte surface after
several cleanings, but this will in no way impair its
performance.
After cleaning, be sure to wipe the hob dry with a soft
cloth.
The pan support are dishwasher proof. If washing
them by hand, take care when drying them as the
enamelling process occasionally leaves rough
edges. The supports should be placed correctly on
the hob, if they are incorrectly replaced, they will not
be stable.
The pan support of this cooker is fitted with anti-
scratch rubber feet.
These feet are dishwasher proof and should not be
removed when cleaning the pan support.
If the rubber feet become detached from the pan
support re-fit as per diagram Fig. 7.
Anti-scratch rubber feed can be obtained from you
local Zanussi Service Centre for a small charge,
when ordering please quote spare part number

CLEANING THE OVEN
Oven door
Regularly wipe over the control panel, oven door and
door seal using a soft cloth well wrung out in warm
water to which a little washing up liquid has been
added.
To prevent damaging or weakening the door
glass panels avoid the use of the following:
•
Household detergent and bleaches
•
Impregnated pads unsuitable for non-
stick saucepans
•
Brillo/Ajax pads or steel wool pads
•
Chemical oven pads or aerosols
•
Rust removers
•
Bath/Sink stain removers

Clean the outer and inner door glass using warm
soapy water. Should the inner door glass become
heavily soiled it is recommended that a cleaning
product such as Hob Brite, or Bar Keepers Friend is
used.
DO NOT clean the oven door while the
glass panels are warm. If this precaution is
not observed the glass panel may shatter.
If the door glass panel becomes chipped or
has deep scratches, the glass will be
weakened and must be replaced to prevent
the possibility of the panel shattering.
Contact your local Service Centre who will
be pleased to advise further.
Shelves and shelf supports
To clean the chrome parts of the oven, soak in warm
detergent water and remove stubborn marks with a
dampened non-stick pan scourer.
Rinse well and dry with a soft cloth.
Do not use abrasive scourers or steel wool.
