Cleaning and Maintenance
General
Clean the range regularly. A clean range looks better, will last longer and will perform better.
Carbonised grease on surface or between trivets, griddle plates will hinder transfer of heat from
cooking surface to food. This will result in loss of cooking efficiency.
NOTE: Each griddle option can be supplied with a scraper tool and a pack of blades for cleaning
griddle surface. These are not supplied with griddle and have to be purchased separately.
Refer to 'Replacement Parts List' at rear of this manual.
DO NOT use water on trivets, burners and griddle plates while these items are still hot as
warping and cracking may occur. Allow these items to cool down and then remove for
cleaning. The entire trivets, griddle plates and burner caps can be dismantled for cleaning.
NOTE:
DO NOT use abrasive detergents, strong solvents or caustic detergents as they could
corrode or damage the range.
In order to prevent rust forming on trivets, griddle plate (If fitted) and burners, ensure that
any detergent or cleaning material has been completely removed after each cleaning.
Appliance should be switched ‘On’ briefly to ensure griddle plates become dry. Oil or
grease should be spread over griddle surface in order to form a thin protective greasy film.
To keep your range clean and operating at peak efficiency, follow procedures shown below:-
After Each Use
1. Clean griddle with a scraper tool to remove any food debris.
2. Always ensure that scraper tool blades are changed regularly to ensure that scraper tool works
efficiently and prevents damage to griddle plate surface.
3. Clean range castings with a stiff nylon brush or a flexible spatula to remove any food debris.
Always turn off the gas supply before cleaning.
This appliance is not water proof.
Do not use water jet spray to clean interior or exterior of this appliance.
Caution
Always ensure that even pressure is applied over whole surface of scraper tool
when using on flat surface of griddle, to prevent scoring of griddle surface.
NEVER bang sharp edge of scraper tool on flat surface of griddle as this will
damage griddle and invalidate the warranty.
