4.1 Care & Cleaning Guide
Care and cleaning of the range are very important so it can provide you an efficient and sat-
isfactory service.
IF YOUR RANGE IS EQUIPPED WITH ELECTRONIC IGNITION, UN-
PLUG IT FROM THE ELECTRIC POWER BEFORE CLEANING ANY
PART.
DO NOT USE CAUSTIC SODA OR A PRODUCT THAT CONTAINS IT
AS IT MAY SERIOUSLY DAMAGE THE FINISH OF THE RANGE.
Exterior finish
It is necessary to keep your range always clean, generally it will be enough to use water, neu-
tral soap and a damp cloth, rinsing it frequently with clear water in order to avoid leaving
soap residues.
Some other parts will require a different procedure:
Glass lid
Clean the glass lid using soapy water, rinse and wipe with a damp cloth. To achieve better re-
sults after the cleaning, apply a liquid glass cleaner using a damp cloth and spread it over the
complete surface. Remove the excess using a dry cloth.
Control panel and porcelain enamel cooktop
Never use harsh cleaners, heavy cleaning detergents or scouring pads. Fruit,
sugar or highly acidic content foods can cause marks and/or spots over the
porcelain enamel surface.
Clean control panel and cooktop after spillovers and after using the oven. Wait until the sur-
face is cool.
Apply water and a mild soap.
Rinse with clear water and polish with a clean, dry cloth.
For better results we recommend using cane vinegar and warm water. Mix 50% cane alcohol
white vinegar with 50% of warm water and use this solution with a soft scouring pad to re-
move leftovers and spots.
