Cleaning the Burners
The removable parts of the burners can be
disassembled for a more thorough cleaning.
1. Remove the burner caps and burner
diffusers by pulling them away from the
burner cup.
2. Soak them in hot water with a small
amount of washing detergent.
3. Softly scrub off any remaining pieces of
food.
4. Rinse the parts, wipe and dry them.
5. Wipe the fixed parts of the burner cup with
a damp cloth, drying it afterwards with a dry
cloth.
6. Before placing the burner cap and diffuser
back in position, make sure that the flame
apertures are clean and completely dry.

candle and the probe of the thermo-electric
flame failure device extend through their
respective holes in the burner diffuser. Once
the burner diffuser is clicked into place
correctly, place the burner cap on top of
it. The burner cap should not rotate when
correctly positioned.
Servicing the cooktop
Always refer servicing to an authorised
service person. It is recommended that the
appliance be serviced every five years to
ensure the cooktop continues to operate
correctly and safely.
NOTE // If the appliance cannot be adjusted
to perform correctly, it is an abnormal
situation and you should contact the
