Disconnect your appliance from the electricity supply before carrying out any work on it.

Cleaning the appliance

￿Do not use abrasive or corrosive detergents such as stain removers, anti-rust products, powder detergents or sponges with abrasive surfaces: these may scratch the surface beyond repair.

￿Never use steam cleaners or pressure cleaners on the appliance.

•It is usually sufficient simply to wash the hob using a damp sponge and dry it with absorbent kitchen roll.

•The stainless steel or enamel-coated external parts and the rubber seals may be cleaned using a sponge that has been soaked in lukewarm water and neutral soap. Use specialised products for the removal of stubborn stains. After cleaning, rinse well and dry thoroughly. Do not use abrasive powders or corrosive substances.

•The hob grids, burner caps, flame spreader rings and the hob burners can be removed

to make cleaning easier; wash them in hot water and non-abrasive detergent, making sure all burnt-on residue is removed before drying them thoroughly.

•For hobs with electronic ignition, the terminal part of the electronic lighting devices should be cleaned frequently and the gas outlet holes should be checked for blockages.

•The inside of the oven should ideally be cleaned after each use, while it is still lukewarm. Use hot water and detergent, then rinse well and dry with a soft cloth. Do not use abrasive products.

•Clean the glass part of the oven door using a sponge and a non-abrasive cleaning product, then dry thoroughly with a soft cloth. Do not use rough abrasive material or sharp metal scrapers as these could scratch the surface and cause the glass to crack.

•The accessories can be washed like everyday crockery, and are even dishwasher safe.

•Stainless steel can be marked by hard water that has been left on the surface for a long time, or by aggressive detergents containing phosphorus. After cleaning, rinse well and dry thoroughly. Any remaining drops of water should also be dried.

Inspecting the oven seals

Check the door seals around the oven periodically. If the seals are damaged, please contact your nearest Authorised After-sales Service Centre. We recommend that the oven is not used until the seals have been replaced.

Gastapmaintenance

Over time, the taps may become jammed or difficult to turn. If this occurs, the tap must be replaced.

￿This procedure must be performed by a qualified technician who has been authorised by the manufacturer.

Replacing the oven light bulb

the glass lid covering the lamp socket (see figure).

2. Remove the light bulb and replace it with a similar one: voltage 230 V, wattage 25 W, cap

E14.

3.Replace the lid and reconnect the oven to the electricity supply.
