CLEANING GENERAL
_______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
1. PAN SUPPORTS, TRIVETS: These are made from cast iron and coated in a vitreous enamel to provide a resilient mat
finish. These can be placed in the dishwasher (on a gentle cycle) or alternatively cleaned with a soft bristled brush in
warm soapy water.
2. BURNERS: The burner caps are solid brass with a black chrome finish to avoid discoloration of the brass. NOTE: The
black chrome will eventually burn off with time however this will not affect the performance of the burners. The burners
can be re- chromed with Franke`s exchange program, for a nominal fee. The burner cap can be removed and cleaned
with a soft bristled brush and warm soapy water or they can be placed in the dishwasher.
NOTE: AFTER CLEANING (ESPECIALLY IN A DISHWASHER) PLEASE ENSURE THAT THE PORTS (BURNER HOLES) ARE
FREE OF ANY FOOD, WATER OR DEBRIS. THESE ARE EASILY CLEARED WITH A TOOTHPICK OR NEEDLE.
NOTE: DO NOT UNSCREW ANY PART OF THE BURNER SYSTEM.
3. STAINLESS STEEL: Should be cleaned with a commercially available stainless cleaner.
NOTE: DO NOT USE ABRASIVE POWDERS OR SCOURER PADS AS THESE WILL SCRATCH THE SURFACE OF THE
STAINLESS STEEL.
NOTE: DO NOT USE AGGRESSIVE CHEMICAL CLEANERS LIKE AMMONIA OR OVEN CLEANERS AS THESE MAY ETCH OR
DISCOLOUR THE SURFACE.
4. CERAMIC GLASS: After cooking it is recommended that the ceramic glass be cleaned with a commercially available
glass cleaner (eg Windex) to remove any light spills or grease.
NOTE: STUBBORN STAINS AND BURNT FOOD SHOULD BE CLEANED WITH A CERAMIC GLASS CREAM AND REMOVED
WITH A RAZOR SCRAPPER. DO NOT USE SCOURING PADS OF ANY KIND. WE RECOMMEND APPLYING THE CREAM
WITH A DRY CLOTH AND APPLYING IN A CIRCULAR RUBBING MOTION TO REMOVE THE STAIN/FOOD.
