Cleaning The Vitroceramic Hob - Lancellotti Maestro Série Manuel D'utilisation

Instructions for the user
Lift the heating element upwards and clean
•
it with a damp sponge;
lock the heating element by moving the lock
•
system S towards the left as shown in the
figure.
Remove the safety vat. Place the volcanic
•
rock in a suitable container or pour away
the water with the cooking fat residue.
The volcanic rock contained in the collection basin is not subject to wear and therefore never has to
be replaced. To eliminate any unpleasant odours due to normal use, stir up the stones and heat
them for a few minutes. If cooking grease is deposited on the surface of the stones, it is sufficient to
heat them in an oven for high temperature pyrolysis. The same quality of cleaning can be obtained
by turning the energy regulator knob of the grill to the maximum position (11) for 5 or 10 minutes,
depending on the amount of soil that has accumulated. In any case, volcanic rock replacements
can be found in any store that sells household goods.
The stainless steel safety vat should be cleaned with a specific product that does not contain
•
chlorine-based abrasives or acid substances, or a little warm vinegar (it is dishwasher
safe). Rinse and dry carefully;
replace the safety vat into its working position. Finally, release the lock system S and lower the
•
heating element over the vat.

14.11 Cleaning the vitroceramic hob

The vitroceramic hob must be cleaned regularly, each time it is used if possible, when the latent
heat lights are off.
Any light-coloured marks caused by aluminium-based pans can be removed with a damp cloth
dipped in vinegar.
Any burnt residue left after cooking can be removed with a wooden spatula. Rinse with water and
dry well with a clean cloth.
Do not under any circumstances use abrasive or corrosive detergents (e.g. powder products,
oven sprays, stain-removers or metallic sponges).
Any grease deposits on the vitroceramic hob
can be removed more easily by heating it for
approximately 20-30 minutes (knob in
position 11). Afterwards, this residue can be
cleaned off with a wooden spatula. Allow the
surface to cool, rinse with water and dry well
with a clean cloth.
In the event that aluminium or plastic marks, sugar or food containing sugar melt on the cooking
surface, remove immediately while the surface is still warm with a wooden spatula. This will
prevent any damage to the surface.
The cooking surface of the vitroceramic hob is extremely resistant. It is not however unbreakable
and may be damaged, above all by pointed or hard objects if dropped onto it with a certain force.
Warning! If any crack should appear on the hob, isolate the cooker from the main supply
and do not use the appliance to avoid electrocution. Call Customer Services immediately.
