GENERAL ADVICE
Before you begin cleaning you must ensure that the hob
is switched off.
It is advisable to clean when the appliance is cold and espe-
cially when cleaning the enamelled parts.
All enamelled surfaces have to be washed with soapy water or
some other non-abrasive product with a sponge and are to be
dried preferably with a soft cloth.
Avoid leaving alkaline or acid substances (lemon juice, vine-
gar etc.) on the surfaces.
ENAMELLED PARTS
All the enamelled parts must be cleaned with a sponge and
soapy water only or other non-abrasive products.
Dry preferably with a chamois leather.
If acid substances such as lemon juice, tomato conserve,
vinegar etc. are left on the enamel for a long time they will etch
it, making it opaque.
STAINLESS STEEL ELEMENTS
Stainless steel parts must be rinsed with water and dried with
a soft and clean cloth or with a chamois leather.
For persistent dirt, use specific non-abrasive products avail-
able commercially or a little hot vinegar.
Note: regular use could cause discolouring around the
burners, because of the high flame temperature.
CONTROL KNOB
The control knobs may be removed for cleaning but care
should be taken not to damage the seal.
GAS TAPS
Periodic lubrication of the gas taps must be carried out by
specialist personnel only.
In the event of operating faults in the gas taps, call the
Service Department.

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

GLASS LID (optional)
Do not close the glass lid when the electrical plates are still
hot and when the oven, installed below the cooking hob is on
or still hot.
Do not rest hot pans or heavy objects on the cooker lid.
Remove any spillages from the surface of the lid before
opening.
CLEANING ELECTRIC HOTPLATES
Always clean when the hotplate is tepid.
Use a soft cloth, dampened with water, and a little salt. To
finish off, use a soft cloth with a little oil.
Do not use water, to avoid the formation of rust.
BURNERS AND GRIDS
These parts can be removed and cleaned with appropriate
products.
After cleaning, the burners and their flame spreaders must be
well dried and correctly replaced.
It is very important to check that the burner flame spreader
and the cap have been correctly positioned. Failure to do so
can cause serious problems.
In the models with safety device, check that the probe next to
each burner is always clean to ensure correct operation of the
safety valves.
In appliances with electric ignition keep the electrode clean so
that the sparks always strike.
Note: To avoid damage to the electric ignition do not use
it when the burners are not in place.
Do not use steam jet cleaners because the humidity
could infiltrate into the appliance making it dangerous.
