Instructions for the User

7. CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

NEVER USE A JET OF STEAM FOR CLEANING THE APPLIANCE.

Before carrying out any operations, disconnect the appliance from the electricity supply.

7.1Cleaning stainless steel

To keep stainless steel in good condition, it must be cleaned regularly, after each use of the appliance, first allowing it to cool.

7.1.1 Routine daily cleaning

When cleaning and caring for stainless steel surfaces, always use only specific products which do not contain abrasives or chlorine-based acids. Instructions for use: pour the product onto a damp cloth and wipe over the surface, then rinse thoroughly and dry with a soft cloth or chamois leather.

7.1.2 Food stains or spills

Never use metal scouring pads or sharp scrapers which will damage the surface. Use ordinary non-abrasive products for steel, with the aid of wooden or plastic utensils if necessary. Rinse thoroughly and dry with a soft cloth or chamois leather.

7.2Cleaning the gas components

The grids, the burner caps, the flame diffuser rings and the burners 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. Replace the burner caps on their rings, making sure that the holes A are perfectly centered with the circular projections B on the burners.

For best performance, 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.
