7 - CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
GENERAL ADVICE
– When the appliance is not being
used, it is advisable to keep the gas
tap closed.
– Every now and then check to make
sure that the flexible tube that
connects the gas line or the gas
cylinder to the appliance is in perfect
condition and eventually substitute it if
it shows signs of wearing or damage.
– The periodical lubrication of the gas
taps must be done only by specialized
personnel.
– If a tap becomes stiff, do not force;
contact your local Service Centre.
– Important:
Before any operation of cleaning
and maintenance disconnect the
appliance from the electrical
network.
Attention
The appliance gets very hot, mainly
around the cooking areas. It is very
important that children are not left
alone in the kitchen when you are
cooking.
Do not use a steam cleaner
because the moisture can get into
the appliance thus make it unsafe.
ENAMELLED SURFACES
All the enamelled parts must be cleaned
with a sponge and soapy water or other
non-abrasive products.
Dry preferably with a soft cloth.
Acidic substances like lemon juice,
tomato sauce, vinegar etc. can damage
the enamel if left too long.
STAINLESS STEEL SURFACES
mod. PRDF 1060 IX
The stainless steel front panels on this
cooker (facia, oven door, bottom panel)
are protected by a finger-print proof
lacquer.
To avoid damaging this lacquer, do not
clean the stainless steel with abrasive
cleaners or abrasive cloths or scouring
pads.
ONLY SOAP/WARM WATER MUST
BE USED TO CLEAN THE STAINLESS
STEEL SURFACES.
STAINLESS STEEL, ALUMINIUM PARTS
AND SILK-SCREEN PRINTED SUR-
FACES
Clean using an appropriate product.
Always dry thoroughly.
IMPORTANT: these parts must be
cleaned very carefully to avoid scratching
and abrasion. You are advised to use a
soft cloth and neutral soap.
CAUTION: Do not use abrasive sub-
stances or non-neutral detergents as
these will irreparably damage the pro-
tective surface.
