CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
By ensuring proper cleaning and mainte-
nance of your cooker you can have a sig-
nificant influence on the continuing fault-free
operation of your appliance.
Before you start cleaning, the cooker must
be switched off and you should ensure
that all knobs are set to the “
”/“0” posi-
tion. Do not start cleaning until the cooker
has completely cooled.
Burners, the burner hob grilling
rack, the cooker housing
In the case of soiled burners and grilling
rack, these elements must be removed
from the cooker and washed with warm
water and washing – up products intend
-
ed for fats. Next, wipe them dry. After the
grilling rack has been removed, wash the
burner hob carefully and wipe with a dry
and soft cloth. In particular, ensure flame
openings in rings under caps are clean,
see the figure below. Do not use steel wire
or drill holes.
Caution!
Burner elements must always be
clean. Water particles may hamper
gas flow and produce an incorrect
burner flame.
Wash enamel elements of the cooker with
light washing products. When cleaning
do not use cleaning agents with a strong
abrasive effect, such as scouring powders
containing an abrasive, abrasive com-
pounds, abrasive stones, pumice stones,
wire brushes and so on.
Before you start using the cooker with
stainless steel hob, its cooking zone first
needs to be carefully washed. It is impor-
tant to remove glue residues from the foils
taken off trays during installation, as well
as adhesive tape applied during packag-
ing. The hob should be cleaned regularly
after each use. Do not allow the hob to get
heavily stained, particularly from burnt-
on spillages from boiled over liquids. An
agent like Stahl-Fix is recommended for
the initial wash and, subsequently, for
routine washes.
Important:
The burner caps and leads must be reposi-
tioned correctly so that they sit squarely onto
the hob as shown.
