By using a pressure cooker you will obtain further energy-saving and shorter cooking times. As soon as a liquid starts boiling, turn down the flame so that it will barely keep the liquid simmering. Avoid cooking with potstones, earthenware pots or cast iron plates. Also, avoid using aluminiun foil for protecting the top during operation.

This appliance cannot be cleaned with steam or with a steam cleaning machine. The Hob Top Regularly wipe over the hob top using a soft cloth well wrung out in warm water to which a little washing up liquid has been added. Avoid the use of the following: - household detergent and bleaches; - impregnated pads unsuitable for non-stick saucepans; - steel wool pads; - bath/sink stain removers. Should the hob top become heavily soiled, it is recommended that proper cleaning product is used. If scratches or cracks are noticed on the glass top, immediately disconnect the appliance from the electrical supply to avoid the risk of electrical shock. Then, contact your local Service Force Centre and avoid using the appliance until it has been repaired. 20 Pan Supports The pan supports are dishwasher proof. If washing them by hand, take care when drying them as the enamelling process occasionally leaves rough edges. If necessary, remove stubborn stains using a paste cleaner. Pay attention when replacing the pan supports in order to avoid scratching the glass hob top. The Burners The cap and the crown of each burner are secured with two screws. To separate the two pieces, lift the cap, turn it upside down, then undo the two fixing screws as shown in the diagram. After a thoroughly cleaning, reassemble the two parts and refit the cap in its correct position on the burner. Frequently wash the burner caps and crowns using hot soapy water and remove marks with a mild paste cleaner. A well moistened soap impregnated steel wool pad can be used with caution, if the marks are particularly difficult to remove. For stubborn stains, use normal nonabrasive cleaners or specific products available on the market. NEVER use scouring pads, steel wool or acids for cleaning. The ignition system The electric ignition is obtained through a spark plug (letter A) and a metal electrode (letter B). Keep these components clean, to avoid difficult lighting, and check that the burner crown holes are not obstructed.
