MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING

Before cleaning the Hob, ensure the appliance has cooled down. Remove the plug from
the socket or (if connected directly) switch off the electricity supply.
When cleaning the enamelled, varnished or chrome sections, use warm soapy water
or a non caustic detergent. For stainless steel use an appropriate cleaning solution.
Hotplates should only be cleaned with a cotton cloth coated with vaseline or seed oil.
Never use abrasives, corrosive detergents, bleaching agents or acids. Avoid any acid
or alkaline substances (lemon, juice, vinegar etc.) on the enamelled, varnisched or stain-
less steel sections.
The burners can be cleaned with soapy water. To restore their original shine, use a
household stainless steel cleaner. After cleaning, dry the burners and replace.
It is important the Burners are replaced correctly.

AFTERCARE

Before calling out a Service Engineer please check the following:
— that the plug is correctly inserted and fused;
— that the gas supply is not faulty.
If the fault cannot be identified:
switch off the appliance — do not tamper with it — call the Aftercare Service Centre.

Chromed grids and burners
Chromed grids and burners have the tendency to dark with the use.
This is a normal and inevitable phenomenon, but it doesn’t jeopardize absolutely the
functionality of the hob.
In anycase from our after sales service centre the spare parts are available.

COVER

The cover is available as optional accessory.

Before closing the cover, to protect it from excessive temperature changes, always
wait until the burners or plates have completely cooled down.
Any spillages should be removed from the cover before opening it.

Only pans which have smooth flat bases should be used on the electric hotplates. The
size of the pan should be as close as possible to the diameter of the hotplate, and ne-
ver smaller (see Fig. 12). The base of the pan should be dry and spillages should be
avoided. Empty pans should not be left on the plates, nor should the plates left switched
on without a pan.
