CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

Before any cleaning and/or maintenance
operation, disconnect the hob from power supply
and wait until it is cold.
Important: Never use steam cleaners.
To keep the hob in perfect condition, remove any
food residuals and clean it after every use.
Hob cleaning:
• The stainless steel surface may become stained in
case of prolonged contact with very hard water or
aggressive detergents. It is advisable to immediately
wipe any spills (water, sauce, coffee, etc.).
Clean with lukewarm water and neutral detergent,
rinse and dry thoroughly with a soft cloth or
shammy leather or specific cloth for cleaning
stainless steel surfaces. Remove stubborn grime
with specific cleaners for steel, normally available on
the market.
CARE AND CLEANING OF HOB

• Do not use abrasive or corrosive products,
chlorine-based products or scouring pads.
• Do not use steam cleaners.
• Do not use flammable products.
• Do not leave acid or alkaline substances, such as
vinegar, mustard, salt, sugar or lemon juice on
the hob.
Note: Continuous use of the hob could cause
the original colour to change at the burners,
due to the high temperature of the flame.
This does not affect hob operation or its
performance.
Note: For models equipped with electric igniters
and safety thermocouples, the end part requires
thorough cleaning in order to ensure correct
operation. Check frequently and, if necessary,
clean them with a damp cloth. Any dry residuals can
be removed with a toothpick or needle.
To avoid damaging the electric ignition,
do not use it when the burners are not fitted.
