Instructions for the User

11.2.2 The pan stands

Remove the pan stands and wash them in warm water with a non-abrasive detergent, taking care to remove all deposits. Put them back on the hob.

The continuous contact between the pan stands and the flame may cause deterioration in the enamel in the areas exposed to heat over time. This is an absolutely natural phenomenon which does not impair this component's operation at all.

11.2.3 The burner caps and flame diffuser rings

The burner caps and flame diffuser rings can be removed for easier cleaning; wash them in hot water and non-abrasive detergent, taking care to remove all deposits, and wait for them to dry completely.

WARNING: never wash these components in the dishwasher.

They may be left to soak in hot water and detergent.

Replace the flame diffuser rings, checking that they are correctly in place with their respective burner caps, making sure that the holes A in the flame diffusers are aligned with the plugs and thermocouples.

11.2.4 The plugs and thermocouples

For best performance, on the relevant models the ignition plugs and thermocouples must always be kept thoroughly clean. Check them frequently and if necessary clean them with a wet cloth. Remove any dry residues with a wooden toothpick or a needle.

11.3 Cleaning the oven

To keep the oven in good condition, it must be cleaned regularly, after allowing it to cool down. Remove all removable parts.

Clean the oven shelves with hot water and non-abrasive detergents, rinse and dry.

11.4 Door glazing

The glass in the door should always be kept thoroughly clean. Use absorbent kitchen roll; remove stubborn dirt with a damp sponge and ordinary detergent.
