PLATE CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
Radiating plates in special steel need regular
maintenance, in particular they need clean-
ing after every use that brings moisture or
dust on the plate itself. With cold cooker you
have to remove all the pots and boilers that
could maintain moisture on the plate. You
should clean the plate when it is tepid, so
that the moisture vanish for evaporation and
rust stains do not occur.
Do not clean the cooker with water when the
cooker is cold. Moreover, it is important to be
sure that the expansion cuts and the hole
between the plate and the frame are not
obstructed by dust or by other residuals: the
plate could suffer deformations, also perma-
nent. When it is necessary, you should clean
also the beating of the circled removing
eventual residuals. The plates are all worked
in with non acid anti-corrosion oil. The use
of the cooker deletes this oil layer and so
the contact with water may cause small rusty

stains. In this case you have to wipe the plate
with a rag soaked with non acid oil. If the
rusty stain is not being cleaned, you could
have to wipe the plate with a lightly abra-
sive paper or with the abrasive sponge given
together with the cooker. To restore the pro-
tecting layer wipe the plate with little oil.
Radiating steel plates, exposed to continu-
ous heating, trend slowly to take a burnished
colour; if you want to accelerate the process,
repeat frequently the oil wiping.
Together with the cooker are given two ex-
clusive products, studied for the cleaning and
the maintenance of the plate: on how to use
them please read the instructions written on
the bottles.
To remove the plate, you have to lift it up.
When you reinsert the plate, keep in mind to
leave the 1 or 2 millimetres to allow the ther-
mal expansion of the plate itself.
