Gas Jet Cleaning Procedure
• Every six months the gas jets on your hob should
be cleaned to ensure continued efficient and safe
operation.
• This may be done using a Gas Jet Cleaning Kit
which may be purchased from your nearest Defy
Service Centre.
• The kit comprises of a sliding T-bar (A) a socket
(B) and a ‘Classic pin’ (C).
• Fit the T-bar to the socket and remove the pot
stands, burner caps and burner bodies.
1. Insert the socket into the central tube of the burner
so that it locates over the brass gas jet at the
bottom of the tube.
2. Gently loosen the brass gas jet by turning the
socket in an anti-clockwise direction.
3. Carefully lift the socket and loosened brass gas jet
from the central burner tube.
4. Insert the Classic pin into central hole of the jet and
slide it up and down until the jet is free of
accumulated dirt.
5. Re-assemble in reverse order.
6. Clean all the burner jets in the manner described
above.
• If required, the cleaning of the valves should only
be carried out by a qualified Defy technician. i.e.
Burner not functioning correctly.
• Wash removable burner parts weekly with hot
water and detergent.
• Remove any encrustations and ensure that the
burner holes are clear.
• The condition of the gas hose and valve should be
inspected for leaks every time the gas bottle is re-
filled.
