3. For the burner to operate correctly, make sure that the arms of the pan supports are aligned with the centre of the burner.

7.3 Removing pan supports

To keep the pan supports in the correct position, they are put on metal pins installed in the rear side of the hob. For easier cleaning, pan supports can be removed from the hob. Lift up the pan supports keeping them in horizontal position as shown in the graphic.

Do not lift the pan supports at an angle, as this will put strain on the metal pins. This can cause damage to the pins and cause them to break.

The shape of pan supports and the amount of burners can be different in other models of the appliance.

7.4 Cleaning the hob

• Remove immediately: melted plastic, plastic foil, sugar and food with sugar, otherwise, the dirt can cause damage to the hob. Take care to avoid burns.
• Remove when the hob is sufficiently cool: limescale rings, water rings, fat stains, shiny metallic discoloration. Clean the hob with a moist cloth and a non-abrasive detergent. After cleaning, wipe the hob dry with a soft cloth.
  To clean the enamelled parts, caps and crowns, wash them with warm soapy water and dry them carefully before you put them back on.

7.5 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.

7.6 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.
