Cleaning and Maintenance
General Tips
– Before cleaning the hob switch it off and wait for it to cool down.
– Clean with a cloth, hot water and soap or liquid detergent.
– Do not use products which are abrasive, corrosive or chlorine based.
– Do not use steel pads.
– Avoid using cleaning products with a chlorine or acidic base.
– Do not leave acid or alkaline substances (vinegar, salt, lemon juice, etc.) on the hob.
– Steam cleaners must not be used when cleaning this appliance.
– Warning: When correctly installed, your product meets all safety requirements laid down for this type
of product category. However special care should be taken around the underneath of the appliance as
this area is not designed or intended to be touched and may contain sharp or rough edges, that may
cause injury.
Enamelled Parts
– All the enamelled parts must be cleaned with a sponge and soapy water only or other non-abrasive
products.
– Dry preferably with a soft cloth. If acid substances such as lemon juice, tomato conserve, vinegar etc. are
left on the enamel for a long time they will etch it, making it opaque.
Stainless Steel Surfaces
– Stainless steel parts should be rinsed with water and dried with a soft cloth.
– For persistent dirt, use specific non-abrasive products available commercially or a little hot vinegar.
– Note: regular use will cause discolouring around the burners, because of the high flame temperature.
Control Knob
– The control knobs may be removed for cleaning but care should be taken not to damage the seal.
Gas Taps
– Regular lubrication of the gas taps must only be performed by specialised engineers.
– If the gas taps are not working properly call the After-Sales Service.
