Before using the cooktop
Cleaning the cooktop
Before using for the first time clean the appliance as follows:
^Wash the removable parts of the gas burner in a mild solution of warm water and liquid dish soap.
^Dry and reassemble them in the proper order (see the "Cleaning and care" section).
^The ceramic surface can be cleaned using water or a ceramic cooktop cleaner and then wiped dry with a soft cloth.
Metal components have a protective coating which may give off a slight odor the first time your new appliance is heated.
The harmless odor will dissipate after a short time and does not indicate a faulty connection or appliance defect.
