Switching the appliance off
Disconnect your appliance from the electricity supply
before carrying out any work on it.
Cleaning the appliance
 Never use steam cleaners or pressure cleaners on
the appliance.
• The stainless steel or enamel-coated external
parts and the rubber seals may be cleaned using a
sponge that has been soaked in lukewarm water
and neutral soap. Use specialised products for the
removal of stubborn stains. After cleaning, rinse
well and dry thoroughly. Do not use abrasive
powders or corrosive substances.
• The hob grids, burner caps, flame spreader rings
and burners may be removed to make cleaning
easier; wash them in hot water and non-abrasive
detergent, making sure all burnt-on residue is
removed before drying them thoroughly.
• Clean the terminal part of the flame failure safety
devices* frequently.
• The inside of the oven should ideally be cleaned
after each use, while it is still lukewarm. Use hot
water and detergent, then rinse well and dry with a
soft cloth. Do not use abrasive products.
• Clean the glass part of the oven door using a
sponge and a non-abrasive cleaning product, then
dry thoroughly with a soft cloth. Do not use rough
abrasive material or sharp metal scrapers as these
could scratch the surface and cause the glass to
crack.
• The accessories can be washed like everyday
crockery, and are even dishwasher safe.
The cover
If the cooker is fitted with
a glass cover, this cover
should be cleaned using
lukewarm water. Do not
use abrasive products.
It is possible to remove
the cover in order to
make cleaning the area
behind the hob easier.
Open the cover fully and pull it upwards (see figure).
 Do not close the cover when the burners are alight
or when they are still hot.
Inspecting the oven seals
Check the door seals around the oven regularly. If the
seals are damaged, please contact your nearest
Authorised After-sales Service Centre. We
recommend that the oven is not used until the seals
have been replaced.
Replacing the oven light bulb
1. After disconnecting the oven
from the electricity mains, remove
the glass lid covering the lamp
socket (see figure).
2. Remove the light bulb and
replace it with a similar one: voltage
230 V, wattage 25 W, cap E 14.
3. Replace the lid and reconnect the oven to the
electricity supply.
Gas tap maintenance
Over time, the taps may become jammed or difficult to
turn. If this occurs, the tap must be replaced.
 This procedure must be performed by a qualified
technician who has been authorised by the
manufacturer.
