MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING
No specific maintenance procedures are required for the appliance aside from correct and regular
cleaning.
ATTENTION!
Before cleaning the appliance, make sure that the burner is off.
Always wait for the appliance to completely cool down.
▪
Clean the appliance on a regular basis to prevent the materials making up the surface from deteriorating.
▪
Disconnect the power (if on) and close the gas supply cocks before any cleaning operation or when
expected to remain idle for a long time. Make sure that all the knobs are always in the “off” position
when you are finished using the appliance.
▪
Do not use steam appliances or direct water jets to clean the hob unit.
ATTENTION!
Do not use hydrochloric acid (muriatic acid and/or detergents containing chlorides) on the
stainless steel surfaces.
ATTENTION!
Not use abrasive powder detergents which could ruin the appearance of the surface finish.
If some particularly acidic substances (e.g. vinegar, lemon juice, etc.) remain on the appliance
for a long time, they could corrode the surfaces creating unsightly rings which however do not
jeopardise appliance operation.

STAINLESS STEEL SURFACES
Use a soft cloth slightly soaked in specific neutral detergent or warm
vinegar. Rinse with warm water and dry.
Please note:
follow the manufacturer’s instructions to see how to use the
cleaning products.
BURNER SPREADER/CAPS
Remove the components from their housing and wash them with warm
water and dishwashing soap. Stubborn filth on the enamelled components
can be removed using a slightly abrasive sponge and a degreaser, taking
care not to damage the surfaces.
Rinse with warm water and dry. Afterwards, put the components back in
place with the utmost attention.
KNOBS
Use a soft cloth slightly soaked in neutral detergent.
Make sure that the detergent does not leak under the knobs.
Do not remove the knobs from the pin they are mounted on.
Please note:
follow the manufacturer’s instructions to see how to use the
cleaning products.
ATTENTION!
During and after cleaning, check that no nozzle hole is obstructed by impurities or whether
any detergent residues remain at the bottom of the burner cups. If so, remove the impurities
and residues by vacuuming them, without using liquid detergent or similar.
Only for products with steel or chrome-plated iron pan holders: progressive burnishing of the
pan holders is caused by normal use of the appliance and does not jeopardise its performance.
