  • The griddle can be pre-heated with the burner on maximum power for no more than 10 minutes.
  • It is recommended you reduce the power during cooking;
  • Do not allow the burner flames to extend beyond the edge of the griddle;
  • Leave a gap of at least 150 mm between the edge of the griddle and the side wall;
  • Do not place the griddle over more than one burner at the same time.

Cleaning and maintenance

4 Cleaning and maintenance

4.1 Instructions

SMEG PV631CNXAU - Instructions - 1

Improper use Risk of damage to surfaces

  • Do not use steam jets for cleaning the appliance.
  • Do not use cleaning products containing chlorine, ammonia or bleach on steel parts or parts with metallic finishes on the surface (e.g. anodizing, nickel- or chromium-plating).
  • In case of contact with overly harsh detergents, hard water or spills (cooking water, sauce, coffee etc.), clean the hob as soon as it has cooled.
  • Do not use abrasive or corrosive detergents on glass parts (e.g. powder products, stain removers and metallic sponges).
  • Do not use rough or abrasive materials or sharp metal scrapers.
  • Do not wash the removable components such as the hob pan stands, flame-spreader crowns and burner caps in a dishwasher.

4.2 Cleaning the appliance

To keep the surfaces in good condition, they should be cleaned regularly after use. Let them cool first.

Ordinary daily cleaning

Always use only specific products that do not contain abrasives or chlorine-based acids.

Pour the product onto a damp cloth and wipe the surface, rinse thoroughly and dry with a soft cloth or a microfibre cloth.

Food stains or residues

Do not use metallic sponges or sharp scrapers as they will damage the surfaces.

Use ordinary non-abrasive products with the aid of wooden or plastic utensils if necessary. Rinse thoroughly and dry with a soft cloth or a microfibre cloth.

Do not allow residues of sugary foods (such as jam) to set inside the oven. If left to set for too long, they might damage the enamel lining of the oven.

Cleaning and maintenance

Cooking hob grids

Remove the grids and clean them with lukewarm water and non-abrasive detergent. Make sure to remove any encrustations. Dry them thoroughly and return them to the hob.

SMEG PV631CNXAU - Cooking hob grids - 1

Rubbing of pans can leave marks on the grids; these can be removed with mildly abrasive products.

SMEG PV631CNXAU - Cooking hob grids - 2

Continuous contact between the grids and the flame can cause modifications to the enamel over time in those parts exposed to heat. This is a completely natural phenomenon which has no effect on the operation of this component.

Flame-spreader crowns and burner caps

For easier cleaning, the flame-spreader crowns and the burner caps can be removed. Wash them in hot water and non-abrasive detergent. Carefully remove any encrustation, then wait until they are perfectly dry. Refit the flame-spreader crowns making sure that they are correctly positioned in their housings with their respective burner caps.

Igniters and thermocouples

For correct operation the igniters and thermocouples must always be perfectly clean. Check them frequently and clean them with a damp cloth if necessary. Remove any dry residues with a wooden toothpick or a needle.
