To avoid permanent stains, rings should be washed
each time after they become soiled.

The hob surface around the burner should be kept
clean at all times. Dirt may clog the nozzle, which
results in reduced gas flow or stoppage.

The nozzle should be cleaned with a small paint-
brush dipped in a solvent.
•
Dry all the elements of the burners carefully as wet
elements may not light or cause the gas to com-
bust improperly. Assemble clean and dry burners
carrying out the disassembling steps in the reverse
order, taking care not to damage the sparkers.
