9. CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
WARNING
ELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZARD
Before servicing the oven, disconnect the appliance from the power supply.
9.1
Cleaning stainless steel parts
NOTE
: To keep stainless steel in good condition it should be regularly cleaned after use. Let steel parts
cool first.
9.1.1 Routine Daily Cleaning
To clean and preserve stainless steel surfaces, use
only
specific products that do not contain abrasives
or chlorine-based acids.
How to use:
pour the product onto a damp cloth and wipe the surface, then rinse thoroughly and dry
with a soft cloth or deerskin.
9.1.2 Food stains or residues
Do not use metallic scouring pads or sharp scrapers: they will damage the surface of the
appliance.
Use standard non-abrasive products and a wooden or plastic scraping tool if necessary.
Rinse thoroughly and dry with a soft cloth or deerskin.
Do not allow residues of sugary foods (such as jam) to set inside the oven. If allowed to
set for too long, it will pit the enamel lining of the oven.
9.2
Cleaning of rangetop parts
9.2.1 Grates
Remove the grates. Clean with warm water and non-abrasive detergent, removing any crusty build-up.
Replace the grates on the rangetop.
9.2.2 Burner caps, burner heads and burners
The burner caps and burner heads can be removed for easier cleaning. Wash them in hot water and with
non-abrasive detergent, ensuring that all deposits are removed, and set them aside for complete drying.
NOTE
: Replace the burner caps on the burner heads, making sure that the slots are
perfectly aligned with the projections on the burners.
Never wash these parts in the dishwasher.
9.2.3 Spark electrodes
For best performance, the spark electrode must always be kept very clean. Check them
frequently and, if necessary, wipe down with a damp cloth. Remove any burnt residue
with a wooden toothpick or a straight pin or needle.
