You can remove and clean these parts with hot soapy water or non-abrasive detergents. Clean
spills regularly before they become burnt on. Do not wash these parts in a dishwasher.
After cleaning, check that the burners and their flame spreaders are dry before replacing
correctly.
It is very important to check that the burner flame spreader and the cap have been correctly
positioned. Failure to do so can cause serious problems.
Note: To avoid damage to the electric ignition do not try to light the cooktop when the burners
are not in place.
Replacing the burners
Check that:
The ignitor is always clean to ensure trouble-free sparking.
The probe is always clean to ensure correct operation of the safety valves.
Note: both the ignitor and probe must be very carefully cleaned using a toothbrush and
methylated spirits.
