Cleaning the appliance
Clean the appliance after each use once it has cooled
down. Remove liquids that have boiled over or spilled
immediately and do not allow any food remnants to burn
on.
Dry the burners thoroughly after cleaning. Only operate
the appliance when the burners are dry. Damp burners
can cause ignition problems and/or an unstable flame.
During assembly, make sure that the burner parts
(locking catches) are in the correct position. All parts
must be straight.

Burnt-on dirt
For hard-to-remove, burnt-on dirt, you can order a
cleaning gel from our online shop, from your specialist
retailer or our Customer Service (item
number 00311859). It is suitable for pan supports and
the stainless steel recess. If necessary, let the dirt soak
overnight. Heed the instructions on the cleaning agent.
NOTICE
DAMAGE TO THE SURFACE -
Do not use the cleaning gel on the burner parts.
Discoloration of the burners
After long use, the burner parts made of brass become
darker due to natural oxidation. The change in the color
does not affect use user benefits.
