Vitroceramic Heating elements
Electrical plates
(Figg. 2-3-1a-1b). Rotate the knob towards the position required for cooking and bear
in mind that the higher the number, the higher the heat output. See table "use of
electrical plates".
The pilot light on the stove panel level signals that the plate is "on".
Some types of pilot lights will maintain some slight luminescence even after
disconnection. That is quite normal.
N.B.: When using electrical elements/plates, we recommend flat bottom recipients
with a diameter equal or slightly larger than that of the plate itself.
•
avoid liquid overflow. Therefore, after boiling or heating liquids, reduce the heat
output;
•
do not leave the electrical elements/plates on with empty pots and pans;
•
when cooking is finished, rotate the knob back into closing and/or disconnected
position.
In the event of even a slight fracture on the cooking vitroceramic surface, disconnect
the electric power supply immediately.
Maintenance
Gas/Electric
Prior to any operation, disconnect the appliance from the electrical system.
For long-life to the equipment, a general cleaning operation must take place
periodically, bearing in mind the following:
•t
he glass, steel and/or enamelled parts must be cleaned with suitable non-abrasive or

corrosive products (found on the market). Avoid chlorine-base products (bleach, etc.);
•
avoid leaving acid or alkaline substances on the working area (vinegar, salt, lemon
juice, etc.).
•
the wall baffle and the small covers (mobile parts of the burner) must be washed
frequently with boiling water and detergent, taking care to remove every possible
encrustation. Dry carefully and check that none of the burner holes is fully or
partially clogged;
•
the electrical parts are cleaned with a damp cloth and are lightly greased with
lubricating oil when still warm.
• the stainless steel grids of the working area, after having been heated, take on a
bluish tint which does not deteriorate the quality. To bring colour back to its original
state, use a slightly abrasive product.
N.B.- Cleaning of the taps must be carried out by qualified personnel, who must be
consulted
in case of any functioning anomaly.
Check periodically the state of conservation of the flexible gas feed pipe. In case of
leakage, call immediately the qualified technicians for its replacement.

Fig. 3a) First of all remove stray food bits and grease drops from the cooking surface
with the special scraper (fig. 4). Then clean the hot area as best as possible with SIDOL,
STAHLFIX or other similar products with a papertowel, then rinse again with water
and dry with a clean cloth.
Pieces of aluminum foil and plastic material which have inadvertently melted or sugar
remains or highly sacchariferous food have to be removed immediately from the hot
cooking area with the special scraper (fig. 4). This is to avoid any possible damage to
the surface of the top.
Under no circumstances should abrasive sponges or irritating chemical detergents be
used such as oven sprays or spot removers.
Battery replacement (Fig. 4)
Unscrew plug and replace old
battery.
