Maintenance and Cleaning
Before any maintenance or cleaning can be carried out, you must DISCONNECT the gas cooker from the electricity supply.
The gas cooker is best cleaned whilst it is still warm; as spillage can be removed more easily than if it is left to cool.

The Burners
The burner caps and crowns can be removed for cleaning. Wash the burner caps and crowns using hot soapy water, and
remove marks with a mild paste cleaner. A well moistened soap impregnated steel wool pad can be used with caution, if the
marks are particularly difficult to remove.
After cleaning, be sure to wipe dry with a soft cloth.
Ignition electrode
The electric ignition is obtained through a ceramic "electrode" and a metal electrode. Keep these components very clean, to
avoid lighting difficulties, and check that the burner crown holes are not obstructed.
Thermocouple
The thermocouple is very crucial for cutting gas supply in case of flame out during cooking, be sure to keep them in very
clean condition.
Troubleshooting
Problem
• There is no spark when lighting the gas
Corrective action
• Check that the unit is plugged in and the electrical supply is
switched on
• Check that the RCCB has not tripped (if fitted)
• Check the mains fuse has not blown
• Check the burner cap and crown have been replaced correctly,
e.g. after cleaning.
• The gas ring burns unevenly
• Check the main jet is not blocked and the burner crown is clear of
food particles.
