Before carrying out any cleaning operation, disconnect the appliance from the
power supply and close the general gas cock to the appliance.Cleaning the
worktop: clean the hob only after cooling. Periodically the burner cups, the ena-
melled grills, the enameled lids, and the flame spreader must be cleaned with
lukewarm soapy water, rinsed and dried well. Any liquid overflowing from the pans
must always be removed with a rag. Cleaning the enamelled parts: To maintain
the characteristics of the enamelled parts, it is necessary to clean them frequent-
ly with soapy water. Never use abrasive powders or metal pads. Avoid leaving
acid or alkaline substances (vinegar, lemon juice, salt, tomato juice, etc.) on the
enamelled parts and wash when the enamelled parts are still hot.
Clean the parts with warm water and non-corrosive liquid detergent and then dry
them with a soft cloth or microfibre. The brilliance is maintained by periodic clea-
ning with special products normally available on the market. Never use abrasive
powders.
Absolutely avoid using steel sponges and sharp scrapers to avoid damaging the
surfaces.
Use normal, non-abrasive products, possibly with the aid of wooden or plastic to-
ols. Rinse thoroughly and dry with a soft cloth or a microfibre cloth. Avoid leaving
residues of sugary food (such as jam) inside the appliance as they could dama-
ge the enamel in the appliance.
Remove the grids and clean them in warm water and a non-abrasive detergent.
Carefully remove any encrustations. Dry them and place them on the hob.
The continuous contact of the grids with the flame can cause an alteration of the
enamel in the vicinity of the areas exposed to heat. This is a completely natural
phenomenon that does not affect the functionality of this component at all.
For good operation, the ignition plugs and thermocouples must always be well
cleaned. Check them frequently and if necessary clean them with a damp cloth.
Any dry residues must be removed with a wooden toothpick or a needle.
The flame-spreader crowns and the lids are removable for easy cleaning. Wash
them in hot water and non-abrasive detergent. Carefully remove any encrusta-
tions and wait until they are perfectly dry.
In the event of a malfunction, make sure that the holes in the outer crown are
always perfectly clean.
The use of the dishwasher for cleaning grills, flame spreaders and lids is not re-
commended
