9.1 General Tips
•
The cooker should be kept clean. The following
may not be used for cleaning: abrasive powder cle-
aners, metal scouring pads, aggressive chemical
agents or sharp objects.
•
Stainless steel elements, knobs, dials and the con-
trol panel should be cleaned with mild liquid deter-
gents containing no abrasive agents.
•
For enamelled parts use a soft brush or sponge
moistened with warm water containing mild deter-
gents, avoiding excessive water. For heavily soiled
surfaces use kitchen-cleaning agents.
•
Do not clean glass surfaces using any abrasive
agents or metal items, as they may scratch the sur-
face and cause the glass to break.
•
The hob surface around burners should always be
clean as dirt deteriorates the combustion of gas.
When cleaning the hob do not allow water to get
beneath the hob.
•
Burners must be kept clean and dry to ensure their
trouble-free operation.
•
Take the dirty grids off the gas hob, soak them in
warm water with detergent and then wash and dry
them.
9.2 Cleaning the burners
NOTE !
Clean the burners, each time they become spilled
and also periodically remove blooms or dirt.
Elements of the burners (9.2.1)
1 – lid;
2 – ring;
3 – body;
4 – nozzle;
5 – thermocouple
•
To clean the burners remove the lid and the ring
of the burners, put them in warm soapy water for
some time and then wash each part of the burner
separately
•
Clean the burner elements using a sponge or a soft
brush and remove dirt from burner ports with a ste-
el wire. After cleaning check if the burner ports are
clear.
•
To avoid permanent stains, rings should be washed
each time after they become soiled.
•
The hob surface around the burner should be kept
clean at all times. Dirt may clog the nozzle, which
results in reduced gas flow or stoppage.
•
The nozzle should be cleaned with a small paint-
brush dipped in a solvent.
•
Dry all the elements of the burners carefully as wet
elements may not light or cause the gas to com-
bust improperly. Assemble clean and dry burners
carrying out the disassembling steps in the reverse
order.
•
In the warranty period all repairs except for the
ones specified below should be carried out by the
authorised Servicing Point.
•
If there are some disturbances during the use of
the appliance, follow the guidelines below to check
if you can repair the defect yourself.
