Disconnect the appliance from the electrical
supply, before carrying out any cleaning or
manteinance work.
Wash the enamelled components with warm soapy
water. Never use abrasive cleaners
Frequently wash the "caps" and the "crowns" with hot
soapy water, carefully taking away any built-up of food.
Carefully wash the stainless steel components with
water, then wipe them dry with a soft cloth.
If the marks are particularly difficult to remove, use
common non-abrasive cleaners or specific products.
Never use steel wool pads or acids.
In models provided with electric ignition, this feature is
obtained through a ceramic "candle" and a metal
electrode (Fig. 1 lett. C). Keep these components well
clean, to avoid difficult lighting, and check that the
burner crown holes (lett. B) are not obstructed.
Cast Iron Pan Supports
The hob has cast iron pan supports.
Take care when removing them. They are fair heavy
and could damage the hob or your kitchen furniture if
you let them fall down.
To keep the pan supports in the correct position, they
are hooked into hinges at the back of the hob. Thanks
to these hooks, you can lift the pan supports for easier
cleaning.
When removing the pan supports, lift them up as shown
in Fig. 2. Never turn the pan supports on the hinges,
this could damage them (Fig. 3).
Keep the left pan support on the appropriate hook of the
right pan support, as shown in Fig. 4.
This keeps the pan supports fixed in place when the
central burner is in use.
Wash the pan supports using hot soapy water. If
necessary, a paste cleaner or a soap impregnated steel
wool pad can be used with caution.

Maintenance and Cleaning
The Hob lid
In order to make the appliance match with the kitchen
design, a lid (not provided) can be fitted on the hob.
The lid is meant to avoid dust to settle on the hob,
when it is closed, and to collect splashes of oil or
fat, when it is open. Do not use it for any other
purpose.
Always wipe off any splash of liquid before
opening the lid.
Always clean the lid from cooking residues before
opening it or taking it off.
WARNING! The crystal lid can splinter when
overheated. Always ensure all the burners are off
before closing it.
