Gas tap maintenance
IMPORTANT: These maintenance operations MUST ONLY be carried out
by a registered gasfitter.
IMPORTANT: Before carrying out any maintenance operations,
disconnect the appliance from the gas and electricity supplies.
If a gas tap becomes stiff to operate, then you should proceed as follows:
• Remove the control knobs, trivets, burners, hob xing screws and
mounting brackets.
• Remove the hob from the worktop and remove any protective covers from
the underside.
• Disconnect the xings holding the tap to the fascia panel and separate the
assembly. Then clean the cone and seating with a cloth dampened with
solvent.
• Lightly smear the cone with high temperature grease, reassemble into
position and rotate a few times.
• Remove the cone again and remove any excess grease, making sure that
the gas ducts are not obstructed with grease.
• Carefully reassemble the components and perform a gas soundness test.
