T o obtain maximum efficiency from the burners, it is advisable

the pan base (see following table).
When a liquid starts boiling, it is advisable to turn the flame
down just enough to keep the liquid simmering.

To extend the life of the cooktop, it is absolutely
indispensable that it be cleaned carefully and thoroughly
on a frequent basis, keeping in mind the following:
• The enameled parts and the glass top, if present, must
be washed with warm water without using abrasive
powders or corrosive substances which could ruin them;
• The removable parts of the burners should be washed
frequently with warm water and soap, making sure to

Is there a problem?
It may occur that the cooktop does not function or does not
function properly. Before calling customer service for
assistance, lets see what can be done.
First of all, check to see that there are no interruptions in
the gas and electrical supplies, and, in particular, that the
gas valves for the mains are open.
The burner does not light or the flame is not uniform
around the burner.
Check to make sure that:
• The gas holes on the burner are not clogged;
• All of the movable parts that make up the burner are
mounted correctly;
• There are no draughts around the cooking surface.
The burner does not remain on when set to "Low".

section entitled, "Minimum Regulation").
printed symbols should not be cleaned with diluents or
abrasive detergents. It is advisable to use only a a damp
cloth with tepid water and a liquid detergent;
• Avoid cleaning appliance parts when they are still warm;
• Avoid leaving acidy liquids (vinegar, lemon juice, aggressive detergents, etc.) on enamelled or painted parts;
Greasing the Gas Valves
Over time, the gas valves may stick or become difficult to
turn. If this is the case, they must be cleaned on the inside
and then regreased.
Important: This procedure must be performed by a
technician authorized by the manufacturer.
The cookware is not stable.
Check to make sure that:
• The bottom of the cookware is perfectly flat.
• The cookware is centered correctly on the burner or
electric hot plate.
• The support grids have not been inverted.
If, despite all of these checks, the cooktop does not function
properly and problem persists, call the nearest Merloni Elettrodomestici Customer Service Centre, informing them of:
- The type of problem.
- The abbreviation used to identify the model (Mod. ...) as
indicated on the warranty .
Never call upon technicians not authorized by the
manufacturer, and refuse to accept spare parts that are not
original.
