8. CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

WARNING ELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZARD

Before servicing the oven, disconnect the appliance from the power supply.

8.1 Cleaning stainless steel parts

NOTE: To maintain stainless steel in good condition it should be regularly cleaned after use. Let steel parts cool first.

8.1.1 Routine Daily Cleaning

To clean and preserve stainless steel surfaces, use only specific products that do not contain abrasives or chlorine-based acids.

How to use: pour the product onto a damp cloth and wipe the surface, then rinse thoroughly and dry with a soft cloth or deerskin.

8.1.2 Food stains or residues

Do not use metallic scouring pads or sharp scrapers: they will damage the surface of the appliance.

Use standard non-abrasive products and a wooden or plastic scraping tool if necessary. Rinse thoroughly and dry with a soft cloth or deerskin.

Do not allow residues of sugary foods (such as jam) to set inside the oven. If allowed to set for too long, it will pit the enamel lining of the oven.

8.2 Cleaning of rangetop parts

8.2.1 Grates

Remove the grates. Clean with warm water and non-abrasive detergent, removing any crusty build-up. Replace the grates on the rangetop.

8.2.2 Burner caps, burner heads and burners

The burner caps and burner heads can be removed for easier cleaning. Wash them in hot water and with non-abrasive detergent, ensuring that all deposits are removed, and put them aside for complete drying.

NOTE: Replace the burner caps on the burner heads, making sure that the slots A are perfectly aligned with the projections on the burners.

Never wash these parts in the dishwasher.

8.2.3 Spark electrodes and thermocouples

For best performance, the spark electrode and the thermocouple must always be kept very clean. Check them frequently and if necessary wipe down with a damp cloth. Remove any burnt residue with a wooden toothpick or a straight pin or needle.
