Smeg SRV532GH3 [20/20] Cleaning of cooking hob components

Instructions for the user

8.2 Cleaning of cooking hob components

Grids, caps, flame cap crowns and burners can be

removed for ease of cleaning. Wash them in warm

water using a non-abrasive detergent, taking care

to remove all tough spots. Before remounting, allow

the components to fully dry out.

CAUTION: do not wash these components in a dishwasher.

In normal use of the hob, the stainless steel burner caps and pan-stands

tend to be burnished by the high temperature. Clean these parts using

very fine abrasive sponges or similar commercial products. Then use a

specific paste polish to restore the steel’s shine. Your local authorised

after-sales technician is able to supply professional products for

appliance cleaning and care.

8.2.1 Ignition plugs and safety devices

For good functioning of the lighting ignition plugs and the safety devices,

keep them very clean.

Check frequently and clean with a damp cloth when necessary.

8.2.2 The electric element

After use, to make sure that the surfaces are clean and long lasting, the

electric element must be treated with specific cleaning products which

are available on the market. This necessary operation prevents

oxidisation (rust formation).

8.2.3 The cover

Clean the glass or steel cover, where mounted, with warm water. Never

use abrasive sponges or detergents. To clean the rear part of the

cooktop, remove the cover by lifting out.

When finished cleaning, refit the cover making sure to insert it correctly.

Before lifting up the cover, dry out properly.

Never lower the cover when burners or electric elements are on or

still hot.
