Care and maintenance
• Cook your food in closed pots or pans with well-fitting
lids and use as little water as possible. Cooking with
the lid off will greatly increase energy consumption
• Use purely flat pots and pans
• If you are cooking something that takes a long time,
it's worth using a pressure cooker, which is twice as
fast and saves a third of the energy.
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.
• 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

from the electricity mains, remove
the glass lid covering the lamp

2. Remove the light bulb and
replace it with a similar one:

cap E 14.
3. Replace the lid and reconnect the oven to the electricity
supply.
! Do not use the oven lamp as/for ambient lighting.
Gas tap maintenance

turn. If this occurs, the tap must be replaced.

technician authorised by the manufacturer.
