2. Cleaning and Maintenance
•
Disconnect the appliance from the electrical
supply, before carrying out any cleaning or
manteinance work.
Wash the enamelled components with warm soapy
water. Never use abrasive cleaners
Frequently wash the "caps" and the "crowns" with hot
soapy water, carefully taking away any built-up of food.
Carefully wash the stainless steel components with
water, then wipe them dry with a soft cloth.
The pan supports are dishwasher proof.
If the marks are particularly difficult to remove, use
common non-abrasive cleaners or specific products.
Never use steel wool pads or acids.
In models provided with electric ignition, this feature is
obtained through a ceramic "candle" and a metal
electrode (fig. 1 lett. C). Keep these components well
clean, to avoid difficult lighting, and check that the
burner crown holes (lett. B) are not obstructed.
PAN SUPPORTS
To keep the pan supports in the right position, they are
hooked to a couple of special hinges in the back of the
hob.
Thanks to these hooks, you can lift the pan supports
for easier cleaning, as shown in fig. 2.
To take the pan supports completely off the hob,
proceed as shown in fig. 3.
PERIODIC MAINTENANCE
Periodically ask your local Service Centre to check the
conditions of the gas supply pipe and the pressure
adjuster, if fitted.
To ensure the good operation of the hob and its safety
features, it is necessary that the taps are periodically
lubricated.
●
The periodic lubrication of the taps must be
carried out by qualified personnel, which you
must refer to also in case of malfunctioning.
THE HOB LID
In order to make the appliance match with the kitchen
design, a lid (not provided) can be fitted on the hob.
●
The lid is meant to avoid dust to settle on the hob,
when it is closed, and to collect splashes of oil or
fat, when it is open. Do not use it for any other
purpose.
●
Always wipe off any splash of liquid before
opening the lid.
●
Always clean the lid from cooking residues before
opening it or taking it off.
●
WARNING! The crystal lid can splinter when
overheated. Always ensure all the burners are
off before closing it.
