9. CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

WARNING
9.1 Cleaning the stainless steel
NOTE: To keep stainless steel in good condition it should be cleaned regularly after use. Let it cool first.
9.1.1 Regular Daily Cleaning
To clean and preserve the stainless steel surfaces, use only specific products that do not contain
abrasives or chlorine-based acids.
How to use: pour the product on a damp cloth and wipe the surface, rinse thoroughly and dry with a soft
cloth or deerskin.
9.1.2 Food stains or residues
Do not use metallic sponges or sharp scrapers: they will damage the surface.
Use normal non-abrasive products for cleaning stainless steel, and a wooden or plastic tool if
necessary. Rinse thoroughly and dry with a soft cloth or deerskin.
Do not allow residues of sugary foods (such as jam) to set inside the oven. If left to set for too
long, they might damage the enamel lining of the oven.
9.2 Cleaning of cooktop components
9.2.1 Racks
Extract the racks. Clean with warm water and non-abrasive detergent, taking care to remove
incrustation. Replace the racks on the cooktop.
9.2.2 Burner caps, flame cap crowns and burners
The burner caps and flame diffuser rings can be removed for easier cleaning; wash them in hot water
and non-abrasive detergent, taking care to remove all deposits, and wait for them to dry completely.
NOTE: Replace the burner caps on their rings, making sure that the holes A are perfectly
centered with the circular projections on the burners.
Never wash these components in the dishwasher.
9.2.3 The plugs and thermocouples
For best performance, the ignition plugs and thermocouples must always be kept very
clean. Check them frequently and if necessary clean them with a wet cloth. Remove any
dry residues with a wooden toothpick or a needle.
