Cleaning the hob
• Remove immediately: melted plastic,
plastic foil, and food with sugar. If not, the
dirt can cause damage to the hob.
• Remove when the hob is sufficiently
cool: limescale rings, water rings, fat stains,
shiny metallic discoloration. Clean the hob
with a moist cloth and some detergent. After
cleaning, rub the hob dry with a soft cloth.
• To clean the enamelled parts, cap and
crown, wash them with warm soapy water
and dry them carefully before you put them
back.
Cleaning the spark plug
This feature is obtained through a ceramic
ignition candle with a metal electrode. Keep
these components well clean to prevent difficult
lighting and check that the burner crown holes
are not obstructed.
Periodic maintenance
Speak to your local Authorised Service Centre
periodically to check the conditions of the gas
supply pipe and the pressure adjuster, if fitted.
