carrying out any work on it.

Cleaning the appliance

!

 Do not use abrasive or corrosive detergents such as stain 

removers, anti-rust products, powder detergents or sponges with 

abrasive surfaces: these may scratch the surface beyond repair.

!

 Never use steam cleaners or pressure cleaners on the 

appliance.

•   It is usually enough to wash the hob with a damp sponge 

and dry it with absorbent kitchen roll.

•  The electric hotplates should be cleaned with a damp 

cloth and lubricated with a little oil while still warm.

•  Stainless steel can be marked by hard water that has 

been left on the surface for a long time, or by aggressive 

detergents containing phosphorus. After cleaning, rinse 

and dry any remaining drops of water.
