Allow the product to cool down befo-
re you clean it.
Hot surfaces may cause burns!
•
Clean the product thoroughly after
each use. In this way it will be possible
to remove cooking residues more ea-
sily, thus avoiding these from burning
the next time the appliance is used.
•
No special cleaning agents are requi-
red for cleaning the product. Use warm
water with washing liquid, a soft cloth
or sponge to clean the product and wi-
pe it with a dry cloth.
•
Always ensure any excess liquid is
thoroughly wiped off after cleaning and
any spillage is immediately wiped dry.
•
Do not use cleaning agents that con-
tain acid or chloride to clean the stain-
less or inox surfaces and the handle.
Use a soft cloth with a liquid detergent
(not abrasive) to wipe those parts clean,
paying attention to sweep in one direc-
tion.
The surface might get damaged by
some detergents or cleaning materi-
als.
Do not use aggressive detergents,
cleaning powders/creams or any
sharp objects during cleaning.
Do not use harsh abrasive cleaners
or sharp metal scrapers to clean the
oven door glass since they can
scratch the surface, which may result
in shattering of the glass.
Do not use steam cleaners to clean
the appliance as this may cause an
electric shock.
Cleaning the hob
Cleaning the burner
1. Remove the pan supports, burner
heads and burner caps and clean them
with a soft and damp cloth.
2. Clean the dirt in burner chamber and on
injector with a soft and damp cloth and
wipe them dry with a dry cloth.
3. Use commercially available potassium
stearate (soft soap) for stubborn dust
and dirt on the burner heads.
4. Clean the burner plate of the hob.
5. Make sure that the burner heads are
installed on their correct places and
seated tightly. Incorrect installation will
result with gas leakage, misfire or irreg-
ular burning.
6. When fitting the pan supports, pay at-
tention to place the pan support feet so
that the burners are centered.
In case of any overflow, turn off the
burner immediately. Remove the pots
and pan supports on it. Clean the over-
flowed material with a dry and absor-
bent cloth. Pay attention not to let
liquids enter into burners. Clean inside
of the burners as well if any liquid has
entered. Do not re-operate the hob
before cleaning it.
