ROUTINE INSPECTION
Before using, make sure that the device is level and there is no visible damage. Make sure the fire hole on the
burner is clear, and that the gas inlet is not damaged. Check for any odors or vibrations, and that the burner
flames are normal. If any problems are noted, stop using and have service done on the appliance.
CLEANING
1. ALWAYS turn off all gas valves before cleaning or maintaining the range.
2. Clean the burners and drip tray of all debris and spillage daily. A complete cleaning every day will ensure a good
service and extend the service life of the unit.

range with water; excessive water will cause operational issues. During cleaning, DO NOT clean the stainless
steel surfaces with abrasive detergent, brush or scraper etc., or with chlorine cleanser (bleach, dish detergent,
hydrochloric acid etc.).
4. DO NOT clean the floor where the device locates with corrosive substance.
5. DO NOT change the burner shutter settings.
6. Accumulation of substances containing salt or acidic ingredients, e.g. vinegar, lemon juice, spices, salt etc. can
cause corrosion, and should be cleaned immediately.
7. After cleaning, ensure that the ports of the burners are open and clear of any residue.

water-absorbent towel. Immediately after drying, season grates lightly with liquid vegetable oil. After
seasoning, replace grates on range and turn burners on LOW, allow grates to heat for 15 minutes before using
pots or pans on the range top. Failure to season grates after cleaning can result in rust.
