Use and Maintenance
• The stainless steel should be washed in soapy
water using a soft cloth. If the metal is
yellowish after washing, we recommend that
you use: lemon, vinegar, dilute amonia or a
cleaning product that contains dilute amonia.
• When cleaning the appliance with the burners
removed, care should be taken not to allow
liquid or other objects to get into the injector
openings.
• When cleaning, do not use products that can
harm aluminium, such as soda, oil, etc.
• When cleaning the golden knobs never use
cleaning agents for metals, abrasive scourers,
bleaches or powder detergents. Use soapy
water and a smooth dishcloth
• The ignition unit (ceramic part and electrode)
must be periodically cleaned with care in order
to prevent ignition problems. A check should
also be made that the burner slots are not
obstructed.
Note: Whenever you replace a burner, you
should check that all of the parts are properly
in place. A part that is not in the right place can
cause poor combustion and/or overheating.
Maintaining the burners
Whenever the gas taps are removed, you should
change the washer that is between the taps and
the supply pipe. The burners are working properly
when their flame is stable and a greeny-blue
colour. If the tip of the flame is yellow, the burners
need to be cleaned; if the problem persists,
contact the Technical Service.
To ensure that the gas installation is properly
sealed and that the burners continue to work
correctly, the hob must be serviced by the
Specialised Technical Service at least once every
year.
Note: Any alteration or adjustment needed by
the appliance should be made by authorised
technical personnel.
Operation of models with electric
hotplates
The electric hotplates are controlled by a switch
with seven positions. To get different levels of
power, all you need to do is to turn the appropriate
knob and set it to the position you want. On the
control panel, areas are marked (A) that show
(with a circle) the control for each hotplate.
The pan should be placed on the hotplate before
ignition.
The power corresponding to each of the switch's
positions is as shown in table:
