9.3 Preventive maintenance

This appliance does not need any special maintenance. However, a few simple operations have to be carried out periodically to prevent malfunctioning:

Burners: the burners must be cleaned periodically (once a year) to ensure correct combustion; make sure that all the openings and flame ports are clean and free of obstacles, and that the burners rest firmly on their supports.

Gas connection: the gas connection must be checked periodically. (every 2 years)

Flexible pipes: if a flexible pipe is used, it must be inspected periodically (once a

year) for leakages: if the surface of the pipe appears rigid and cracked, disconnect immediately the cooker from the gas supply and replace the pipe with a new one.

Valves: if the gas valves get stuck or hard to turn, they need to be cleaned and re- greased; this operation must be carried out by an authorised person.
