SERVICING
Always disconnect the appliance from the
electricity and gas mains before servicing.
11) REPLACING HOTPLATE PARTS
Remove the pan supports and the burner tops.
Remove the burner fixing screws "V" (fig. 14). Pull
off the control knobs. Lift off the hotplate top.
The burners (fig.15), taps (fig. 16) and electrical
components are all now accessible (fig. 17).
NB:
the ignition bar must be removed before
replacing the taps in appliances with automatic
ignition systems.
It is advisable to change seal "D" whenever a tap
is replaced to ensure a gas tight seal.
After servicing, check appliance is gas sound.
When checking for gas leaks do not use washing
up liquid - this can corrode. Use a product
specifically manufactured for leak detection.
Greasing the taps (see fig. 18 - 19)
If a tap becomes stiff to operate, it must be
immediately greased in compliance with the
following instructions:
- Remove the tap.
- Clean the cone and its housing using a cloth
soaked in diluent.
- Lightly spread the cone with the relative grease.
- Fit the cone back in place, operate it several
times and then remove it again. Eliminate any
excess grease and check that the gas ducts have
not become clogged.
- Fit all parts back in place, complying with the
demounting order in reverse.
- Check the tightness by using soapy water.
Do not
light flame to check tap.
