8. CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
Do not use steam jets for cleaning the appliance. The steam could reach the electronics,
damaging them and causing short-circuits.
WARNING: For your safety, you are advised to wear protective gloves while performing any
cleaning or extraordinary maintenance.
Do not use cleaning products containing chlorine, ammonia or bleach on steel parts or parts with
metallic finishes on the surface (e.g. anodizing, nickel- or chromium-plating).
We recommend the use of cleaning products distributed by the manufacturer.
8.1
Cleaning stainless steel
To keep stainless steel in good condition it should be cleaned regularly after use. Let it cool first.
8.2
Ordinary daily cleaning
To clean and preserve stainless steel surfaces, always 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, rinse thoroughly and dry with a
soft cloth or a microfibre cloth.
8.3
Food stains or residues
Do not use metallic sponges or sharp scrapers as they will damage the surfaces.
Use ordinary non-abrasive products with the aid of wooden or plastic utensils if necessary. Rinse
thoroughly and dry with a soft cloth or a microfibre cloth.
Do not allow residues of sugary foods (such as jam) to set inside the oven. If left to set for too long, they
might damage the enamel lining of the oven.
8.4
Cleaning the cooking hob parts
8.4.1 Pan stands
Remove the pan stands and clean them with lukewarm water and non-abrasive detergent, making sure
to remove any encrustations. Dry them thoroughly and return them to the hob.
Continuous contact between the pan stands and the flame can cause modifications to the enamel over
time in those parts exposed to heat. This is a completely natural phenomenon which has no effect on the
operation of this component.
Do no wash these parts in a dishwasher.
