Cleaning and care of the appliance
Cleaning
The appliance must be cold and the electrical power
turned off to clean it.
Keeping the appliance clean is very important for a long and trouble-
free working life. The removable parts should be washed separately
with warm water and detergent, then rinsed in running water. For
stubborn deposits use hot water and vinegar.
Do not use harsh or abrasive detergents to clean the stainless steel
parts. Iron cleaning pads should not be used as they cause the
formation of rust. For the same reason, avoid contact with ferrous
materials. While cleaning, avoid using abrasive paper or cloth; instead
and only in special cases you can use pumice stone powder; we
recommend using sponges (eg. Scotch Brite) to remove stubborn
deposits.
Cleaning the oven
While you are cleaning the oven, be careful not to damage the
thermostat sensor “K” inside the chamber.
Clean the door and the sides of the oven when it is cold. To clean
enamelled parts, we recommend you to use hot water and non-
abrasive or acid detergents. You can also use common sprays for
cleaning ovens and grills to remove stubborn deposits. If spray
products are used, follow the manufacturer’s instructions.
What to do if the unit is not going to be used for a long time
Turn the electrical power off. Clean the unit thoroughly following the instructions and dry it carefully.
Malfunctions
Unauthorised persons should never attempt to repair
the appliance, or carry out maintenance. Tampering
with the appliance voids the warranty!
Malfunctions do not always depend on the quality of the components
used. These appliances are manufactured using top quality
components.
Failures may be caused by voltage surges, or dust and dirt filtering in
the operating components.
In any case, if anomalies are noticed or suspected, ALWAYS turn
the appliance off and disconnect it from the mains. Call the
authorised repair service.
Maintenance
The appliance needs no specific maintenance besides normal cleaning; we do however suggest having it checked once a year by the assistance
centre: that’s why we recommend drawing up a maintenance contract.
Ecology and environment
Our appliances are studied and optimised, with lab tests, to provide
high performance and yields. However, in order to reduce energy
consumption (electricity, gas and water), we suggest not using the
appliance for any length of time if it is empty or under conditions that
compromise optimum yield.
All packaging materials are environment-friendly. They can be kept
without creating problems or burnt in a waste incinerator plant. The
following plastic components can be recycled:
Polyethylene: external packaging material and/or pluribol film
Polypropylene: straps
Polystyrene foam: corner pieces, sheets and protection blocks
At the end of the appliance’s useful life, dispose of it properly.
90% of each appliance is made of metal (stainless steel, iron,
aluminated sheet, etc.) hence it can be recycled by the relative
recycling organisations in compliance with the standards in force in
your country.
Prepare the appliance for disposal, so it cannot be
used any more, by removing the power cable and
any locks to prevent anyone getting locked inside
accidentally.
The Manufacturer declines any responsibility for
damage caused by improper or incorrect installation
or maintenance of the appliance, or failure to
observe safety regulations!
