CLEANING
Note:
continuous use could cause the burners to
change colour due to the high temperature.
FIG. 6/A
IMPORTANT:
always disconnect the appliance from the gas
and electricity mains before carrying out any
cleaning operation.
2) HOT PLATE
Periodically wash the hot plate, the grids,
enamelled covers “A“, “B“, “C”, and burner heads
“T” (see fig. 6/A - 6/B) must also be washed and the
ignition elements “AC” and safety cut-off sensors
“TC” (see fig. 6/A) must be cleaned. Do not wash
them in the dishwasher.
Clean them gently with a small nylon brush as shown
(see fig. 6) and allow to dry fully.
Following this, all parts should be thoroughly rinsed
and dried. Never wash them while they are still warm
and never use abrasive powders. Do not allow
vinegar, coffee, milk, salted water, lemon or tomato
juice from remaining in contact with the enamelled
surfaces for long periods of time.
WARNINGS:
comply with the following instructions, before
remounting the parts:
- check that burner head slots “T” (fig. 6/A)
have not become clogged by foreign bodies.
- Check that enamelled burner cap “A”, “B”, “C”
(fig. 6/A - 6/B) have correctly positioned on the
burner head. It must be steady.
- The exact position of the pan support is
established by the rounded corners, which
should be set towards the side edge of the hot
plate.
- Do not force the taps if they are difficult to
open or close. Contact the technical
assistance service for repairs.
- Don’t use steam jets for cleaning the hotplate.
CARE & MAINTENANCE
To optimize the appearance and up keep of stainless
steel:
1) ALWAYS keep stainless steel out of contact from
acid/acid based solvent (liquid or vapour form).
2) After installation, wipe clean all stainless steel
products with a soft damp cloth to remove any
traces of dirt (e.g. cement dust) or condensation
marks.
In the event where persistent marks appear:
immediately clean affected areas with stainless steel
cleaner, using a clean damp soft cloth.
Ensure surface is rinsed and thoroughly clean of all
marks and stainless steel cleaner.

- Burner ports are free of debris, food or anything
else that may cause an obstruction.
- Electrode and thermocouples are kept clean.
- Burners are re-assembled correctly.
