Cleaning the oven
Before cleaning the oven, wait for it to cool down.
It is best to clean the bottom of the oven after every use and not allow the food or spots of oil to remain and
become permanent stains.
Wash surfaces in warm soapy water.
For stubborn marks on glass surfaces, a mild cream cleaner can be used. Dry parts with a soft cloth.
For the interior surfaces in the oven use normal oven cleaners but always read the manufacturer’s
instructions on how to use them.
Do not use caustic paste, abrasive wire, powders or hard instruments to clean any part of the appliance.
Cleaning the hob
Clean the burners regularly and after each spillage to remove cooking residues and dirt.
Clean the hob regularly to maintain its working condition and aesthetic appearance.
When cleaning the hob, do not use harsh abrasives, caustic cleaners or sharp objects.
Burners and ignitors should always be kept clean and dry to ensure proper performance.
WARNING: Switch off the hob at the mains electricity supply before
cleaning.
Cleaning the pan support
Remove the pan support from the hob after use. Put it in warm soapy
water for some time, then wash and dry it.
Cleaning the burners
Remove the caps and rings, putting them separately in warm soapy water.
After cleaning, check that the burner ports are clear (Figure 19).
The body near the injector should always be clean. Dirt accumulating
around the injector may clog it, as a result of which, the burner will not
light, or will light only with a small flame. To clean the injector use a brush
soaked in a suitable commercial solvent.
Dry all the elements of the burner carefully as wet elements may not light
properly. Assemble clean and dry burners, carrying out the disassembly
steps in the reverse order.
Care of the hob
Before removing a pan from a burner, reduce the flame or turn the burner off completely.
Burners and ignitor tips should be kept clean as dirt adversely affects their performance.
