Care and maintenance

Switching The Appliance Off

Disconnect your appliance from the electricity supply
before carrying out any work on it.
DO NOT TOUCH HOT SURFACES. ALLOW COOKTOP
AND ALL OVEN SURFACES TO COOL COMPLETELY
BEFORE CLEANING.

Cleaning The Appliance

! Do not use abrasive or corrosive detergents such as
stain removers, anti-rust products, powder detergents
or sponges with abrasive surfaces: these may scratch
the surface beyond repair.
! Never use steam cleaners or pressure cleaners on
the appliance.
• It is usually sufficient simply to wash the hob using a
damp sponge and dry it with absorbent kitchen roll.
• 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.
• For hobs with electronic ignition, the terminal part of
the electronic lighting devices should be cleaned
frequently and the gas outlet holes should be
checked for blockages.
• 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 harsh abrasive cleaners or materials, or
metal scrapers to clean the oven door glass since
these can scratch the surface, which may result in
shattering of the glass.
• The accessories can be washed like everyday
crockery, and are even dishwasher safe.
• Stainless steel can be marked by hard water that
has been left on the surface for a long time, or by
aggressive detergents containing phosphorus.
After cleaning, rinse well and dry thoroughly. Any
remaining drops of water should also be dried.

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.

Gas Tap Maintenance

Over time, the taps may become jammed or difficult to
turn. If this occurs, the tap must be replaced.
!This procedure must be performed by a qualified
technician authorised by the manufacturer.

Replacing The Oven Light Bulb

1. After disconnecting the
oven from the electricity mains,
remove the glass lid covering
the lamp socket (see figure).
2. Remove the light bulb and
replace it with a similar one:
voltage 230 V, wattage 25 W,
cap E 14.
3. Replace the lid and reconnect the oven to the
electricity supply.

Cleaning The Cooktop

 Always wipe spills up when they occur. Do not leave
spills to dry onto the surface of the hob.
 It is usually enough to wash the hob with a damp
sponge and dry it with absorbent kitchen roll.
 NOTE: Do not put hot components in cold water.
The sudden temperature shock could cause the
component to crack.
 Do not use abrasive or corrosive detergents such
as stain removers, anti-rust products, powder
detergents or sponges with abrasive surfaces: these
may scratch the surface beyond repair.
