Switch off the gas supply before cleaning any part of the stove.

1.Allow the stove to cool down before cleaning

2.Never use steel wool or similar, sharp objects, vinegar or lemon to clean any part of the stove.

3.Never use cleaning products containing abrasive materials as these could damage the decorative and informative paint applications.

4.Never remove the oven gasket for cleaning purposes as the product could be damaged.

5.Never use high-pressure steam equipment or a water jet to clean the stove.

6.Remove the burners and wipe them with a thin damp cloth or a non-abrasive sponge. Use a neutral detergent. Dry afterward with a soft cloth and blow away any residual water in the gas outlet holes.

7.For cleaning the painted and enameled parts, wipe with a thin damp cloth or non-abrasive sponge and some neutral detergent.

8.Dry afterwards paying particular attention to the areas at floor level

The stainless steel hob

Stainless steel is not adversely affected by normal household use but because of it’s reputation for durability, it is sometimes assumed to be indestructible, and therefore subjected to misuse or even abuse. Care should be taken to avoid such ‘abnormal’ use.

Do Use

•A soft cloth or synthetic sponge.

•Soap, or mild household detergent.

•Diluted ammonia in warm water.

•A nylon bristle brush.

•Cleaners labelled “Suitable for stainless steel”.

Do Not Use

•Acids.

•A steam cleaner.

•Abrasive scourers, steel wool, metal scrapers, wire brushes, emery paper or foam scouring pads.

•So called ‘silver cleaners’.

•Frequent cleaning is recommended rather than an occasional aggressive clean.

•Routine cleaning will preserve the corrosion resistance and appearance of the stainless steel for many years.

•Clean the stainless steel as often as necessary ( ie. when noticeably dull or dirty ) and use the simplest cleaning method that will effectively do the job.

•Use clean water, or a mild detergent solution applied with a soft cloth or sponge. Rinse well and wipe dry.

Burners

•Removable burner parts should be washed weekly with hot water and detergent.

•Take care to remove any encrustations and ensure that the burner holes are clear.

•The condition of the gas hose and valve should be inspected for leaks every time the gas bottle is re-filled.
