MAINTENANCE
The grid should be shaken and cleaned from ashes
regularly.
Empty the ash pan as soon as it is full.
After a period of burning, some soot may have settled on
the glass. With the Sotrent dry sponge you can keep the
glass clean easily.
Keep the hearth and flue clean. If you use the range
often, you should sweep the chimney every once in a
while in between the visits of the chimney sweeper.
Exterior of the range
The enamelled surfaces are cleaned with lukewarm
water when the range is cold. Under no circumstances
may abrasives, scraping or scouring detergents or objects
be used.
NOTE!
For cleaning and care of precious steel parts (stainless
steel, etc.), only the special products that are
commercially available should be used.
Steel hob
The hob is face grinded and oiled on delivery to prevent
rusting. The oil evaporates at the first use and may
smoke a bit. The heat will make the steel hob darken, and
after a while it will obtain an evenly dark colour. You can
use a sponge or a scraper if something has boiled over,
for example.
Ceramic hob
The ceramic hob is mechanically very stable and can
easily withstand medium impact bumps. If cracks or
scratches should occur due to mechanical impact, the
use of the range must be immediately discontinued.
The ceramic hob has to be replaced with a new one.
However, if the glass ceramic hob breaks due to improper
handling during use, the break should be covered with
the ash / soot collectors until the range has cooled down.
The ceramic hobs are cleaned with the same detergent
that are used on the glass hob on an electric stove.

Sweeping with rear connection / side connection
Lift off the top plate. Then lift out the part that forces
the flue gases down (flue gas separator) at the back of
the range. This part is loose and you can lift it straight
up. After that, you can reach into the space and into
the chimney shaft. Do not forget to replace the flue gas
separator again.
