7. HOB - CARE AND CLEANING

WARNING!
Refer to Safety chapters.
7.1 General information
• Clean the hob after each use.
• Always use cookware with clean
bottom.
• Scratches or dark stains on the
surface have no effect on how the hob
operates.
• Use a special cleaner applicable for
the surface of the hob.
• Wash stainless steel parts with water,
and then dry them with a soft cloth.
7.2 Cleaning the hob
• Remove immediately: melted plastic,
plastic foil, and food with sugar. If not,
the dirt can cause damage to the hob.
• Remove when the hob is
sufficiently cool: limescale rings,
water rings, fat stains, shiny metallic
discoloration. Clean the hob with a
moist cloth and some detergent. After
cleaning, rub the hob dry with a soft
cloth.
• To clean the enamelled parts, cap
and crown, wash them with warm
soapy water and dry them carefully
before you put them back.

6.3 Energy saving
• If it is possible, always put the lids on
the cookware.
• When the liquid starts to boil, turn
down the flame to barely simmer the
liquid.
7.3 Cleaning the spark plug
This feature is obtained through a
ceramic ignition candle with a metal
electrode. Keep these components well
clean to prevent difficult lighting and
check that the burner crown holes are
not obstructed.
7.4 Pan supports
The pan supports are not
resistant to washing in a
dishwasher. They must be
washed by hand.
1. Remove the pan supports to easily
clean the hob.
Be very careful when
you replace the pan
supports to prevent the
hob top from damage.
2. The enamel coating occasionally can
have rough edges, so be careful
when you wash the pan supports by
hand and dry them. If necessary,
remove stubborn stains with a paste
cleaner.
3. After you clean the pan supports,
make sure that they are in correct
positions.
