CARE AND CLEANING
WHAT?
HOW OFTEN?
HOW? IMPORTANT!
Burner caps
and rings, flame
spreaders, pan
supports, wok
stand
As needed, but
at least once a
month
1 Remove the parts that you
wish to clean.
See the the illustrations
following this chart.
2 Soak stubborn stains in
a solution of biological
clothes washing detergent
or powdered dishwasher
detergent.
3 Clean the parts in hot soapy
water. Use a stiff nylon brush
or straight-ended paper clip
to clear the flame ports.
4 Rinse in warm water.
5 Dry thoroughly.
6 Replace the parts correctly,
as shown in the drawings
following this chart.
●
Make sure you keep the
flame ports clear. Soiling
from food spillage may clog
these and cause ignition
problems or uneven flame
patterns.
●
Remove stains left by food
or spillovers as soon as
possible. If left to burn on,
they may be difficult to
remove or even permanently
discolor these parts.
●
Before replacing the burner
parts, make sure that they
are completely dry. Wet
burner parts may result in an
irregular flame.
●
Before lighting a burner you
have reassembled, check
that all of its parts have
been positioned correctly.
Incorrect assembly can cause
dangerous irregular flames
and ignition problems.
Ignitor
At least once
a month
Clean these very carefully
using a toothbrush dipped
into denatured alcohol.
A clean ignitor ensures
trouble-free sparking. Check
the ignitor regularly to make
sure it is clean.
All gas
components of
the cooktop
Once every 3-4
years
●
Contact your local
Authorized Repairer to
perform a thorough check
on all gas components of the
cooktop.
●
For Authorized Repairer

●
All checking and
maintenance must be
performed by a suitably
qualified person.

If the gas is connected with
a flexible hose, checking
should include inspecting the
entire length of the flexible
hose assembly for any sign
of wear or damage.
