CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
Surface burners, pan supports
l If the burners and pan supports become
soiled, remove them from the hob and
wash in warm water with some dish
washing liquid. Wipe dry. Once the pan
supports are removed, thoroughly clean
the area under the burner and wipe it
dry with a soft cloth. Flame outlets and
burner head must be clean at all times,
see figure below. Clean the gas nozzles
using a thin copper wire. Do not use steel
wire or ream the holes.
Fig. 15
All burner parts must be always
dry. Water droplets may block the
gas flow and cause the burner to
operate incorrectly.
Regular inspections
In addition to normal cleaning and maintenance:
● carry out periodic checks of touch controls and other elements. After the warranty expires,
have authorised service inspect the appliance every two years,
● repair any operational faults,
● carry out periodic maintenance of the hob,
Make sure that burner is correctly re‑
assembled after cleaning.
Misalignment of the burner cap
can result in permanent damage
to the burner.
