Before any cleaning and/or maintenance
operation, disconnect the hob from power
supply and wait until it is cold.
To keep the hob in perfect condition, remove any
food residuals and clean it after every use.
Hob cleaning:
- Clean the surfaces of the hob with lukewarm
water and/or neutral detergent, rinse and dry
thoroughly with a soft cloth or shammy leather.
- Prolonged contact with hard water or
aggressive detergents could corrode or stain the
stainless steel surfaces; detergents containing
chlorine and/or chlorine composites, ammoniac
or that are highly acidic will cause irreparable
damage to the hob. Before any kind of use, we
advise you read the product label to check if a
product is suitable.
- Do allow acid or alkaline substances, such as
vinegar, mustard, salt or lemon juice to come
into contact with the hob for extended periods.
- It is advisable to immediately wipe any spills
(water, sauce, coffee, etc.).
- Do not use abrasive products and pan scourers.
- Do not use steam cleaners.
- Do not use flammable products.
- All enamelled and glass parts should be cleaned
with warm water and/or a neutral detergent.
Care and maintenance
The pan supports and burners can be removed to
make cleaning easier.
1. Hand wash carefully in hot water with a mild
detergent making sure that all the ingrained dirt
is removed and the openings on the burner are
not blocked. The internal burner cap (D), on
page 12 is made of brass and is subject to a
natural burnishing when it heats up. Clean it
each time you use it with a product specifically
designed for brass. Use hot water and a mild
deteregent to clean the the wok burner
external cap (item (C) on page 12). Never use
harsh products, or scourers that will damage
the special surface coverings.
2. Rinse and dry carefully.
3. Correctly refit the burners and caps in their place.
4. Make sure that when replacing the pan
supports, the pan support is located correctly
for each burner.
Note: Hobs fitted with electronic ignition and
thermocouples must have the ends of the igniters
and thermocouples cleaned regularly and
frequently in order to operate. Please clean them
very carefully with a damp cloth. Any remaining
ingrained food should be removed carefully with a
toothpick, or similar.
To avoid damaging the electronic ignition only
operate with the burners and pan supports
correctly in place.
