THE HOB LID In order to make the appliance match with the kitchen design, a lid can be fitted on the hob. l The lid (not provided) is meant to avoid dust to settle on the hob, when it is closed, and to collect splashes of oil or fat, when it is open. Do not use it for any other purpose. l Always wipe off any splash of liquid before opening the lid. l Always clean the lid from cooking residues before opening it or taking it off. l WARNING! The crystal lid can splinter when overheated. Always ensure all the burners are off before closing it.
2. Cleaning and Maintenance
� Disconnect the appliance from the electrical supply, before carrying out any cleaning or manteinance work.
GENERAL CLEANING Wash the enamelled components with warm soapy water. Never use abrasive cleaners Frequently wash the "caps" and the "crowns" with hot soapy water, carefully taking away any built-up of food. If the marks are particularly difficult to remove, use common non-abrasive cleaners or specific products. Never use steel wool pads or acids. AUTOMATIC IGNITION The automatic ignition of the gas burners is obtained through a ceramic "candle" and a metal electrode (fig. 1 lett. C). Keep these components well clean, to avoid difficult lighting, and check that the burner crown holes (lett. B) are not obstructed. PAN SUPPORTS The hobs are provided with enamelled pan supports (thin and light - fig.2).To keep the pan supports in the right position, they are hooked to a couple of special hinges in the back of the hob. Thanks to these hooks, you can lift the pan supports for easier cleaning (fig. 2). To take the pan supports completely off the hob, proceed as shown in fig. 3. The pan supports are dishwasher proof.
