224
Attention
The appliance gets very hot, mainly around the cooking areas. It is very impor-
tant that children are not left alone in the kitchen when you are cooking.
Do not use a steam cleaner because the moisture can get into the appliance
thus make it unsafe.
Do not use harsh abrasive cleaners or sharp metal scrapers to clean the oven
door glass/glass lid since they can scratch the surface, which may result in
shattering of the glass.
GENERAL ADVICE
– When the appliance is not being
used, it is advisable to keep the gas
tap closed.
– Every now and then check to make
sure that the flexible tube that con-
nects the gas line or the gas cylinder
to the appliance is in perfect condition
and eventually substitute it if it shows
signs of wearing or damage.
– The periodical lubrication of the gas
taps must be done only by special-
ized personnel.
– If a tap becomes stiff, do not force;
contact your local Service Centre.
– Do not use cleaning products with a
chlorine or acidic base.
– Important:
Before any operation of cleaning
and maintenance disconnect the
appliance from the electrical net-
work.
WARNING
When correctly installed, your product
meets all safety requirements laid
down for this type of product catego-
ry. However special care should be
taken around the rear or the under-
neath of the appliance as these areas
are not designed or intended to be
touched and may contain sharp or
rough edges, that may cause injury.
ENAMELLED PARTS
All the enamelled parts must be cleaned
with a sponge and soapy water or other
non-abrasive products.
Dry preferably with a microfibre or soft
cloth.
Acidic substances like lemon juice,
tomato sauce, vinegar etc. can damage
the enamel if left too long.
