Pan support
Burner head
Burner cap
• Burner caps and pan supports : the pan support is made of enamelled cast-iron and the
burner cap is made of enamelled steel, for a maximal protection and an easy cleaning.
They are simply placed. Just lift them off and clean with a damp, slightly soapy sponge.
Do not immerse them in cold water immediately after use to avoid cracking the enamel
from the thermal shock.
The use of abrasive cleansers is not recommended as they scratch and dull the enamel.
• The burner head : the burner cap is simply placed on the burner head. If the holes are
clogged, brush the caps using soapy water and dry with a clean cloth.
Each burner is simply layed on a flange slightly bossed to drain the overflows far from the
flame and the hot areas which make cleaning easier.
• After cleaning of each element, it is important to wipe them correctly and care of fitting
them rightly in their initial position. The re-fitting must be perfect because a bad positioning
can bring serious anomalies in the combustion.
Warning : be careful, not to let any water get into the burners.
THE KNOBS
• For thorough cleaning, the control knobs can be removed by pulling them upwards.
Only clean with soapy water and dry well before replacing them.
• Do not try to pull the watertightness rings. They are originally fitted and must not be
pulled out.
