is switched off and disconnected from
the power supply before performing any
maintenance operation; never use steam
cleaning equipment - risk of electric shock.
Do not use abrasive or corrosive
products, chlorine-based cleaners or pan
scourers.
CLEANING THE HOB PARTS

removed to be cleaned.
- Clean them by hand with warm water
and non-abrasive detergent, removing
any food residues and checking that none
of the burner openings is clogged.

- Refit burners and burner caps correctly in
the respective housings.
- When replacing the grids, make sure that
the panstand area is aligned with the
burner.
IMPORTANT: improper use of the grids can
result in damage to the hob: do not position
the grids upside down or slide them across
the hob. Do not use:
- Cast iron griddles, ollar stones, terracotta
pots and pans.

other types.
