CARE AND CLEANING
WARNING!
Switch the appliance off and let it cool down before you clean it. Disconnect the appliance
from the electrical supply, before carrying out any cleaning or maintenance work.
WARNING!
For safety reasons, do not clean the appliance with steam cleaners or high-pressure clean-
ers.
WARNING!
Do not use abrasive cleaners, steel wool pads or acids, they can cause damage to the appli-
ance.
You can remove the pan supports to easily clean the hob. After cleaning the hob, make sure
the pan supports are correctly positioned. Pay attention when you replace the pan supports
to prevent the glass hob top from scratching. When you wash the pan supports by hand,
take care when you dry them as the enamelling process occasionally leaves rough edges. If
necessary, remove stubborn stains using a paste cleaner.
Removing the dirt:
1.
– Remove immediately: melting plastic, plastic foil, and food containing sugar. Use a
special glass ceramic scraper. Put the scraper on the glass ceramic surface at an
acute angle and slide the blade on the surface.
– Stop the appliance and let it cool down before you clean: limescale rings, water
rings, fat stains, shiny metallic discolorations. Use a special cleaner for glass ceramic
or stainless steel.
2. Clean the appliance with a damp cloth and some detergent.
3. At the end rub the appliance dry with a clean cloth.
Cleaning the ignition candle
This model has a ceramic ignition candle and a metal electrode. Keep these components
well clean to prevent difficult lighting and check that the burner crown holes are not
blocked.
Periodic maintenance
Periodically speak your local Service Force Centre to check the conditions of the gas supply
pipe and the pressure adjuster, if fitted.
