CARE & MAINTENANCE
As with all appliances, proper care and maintenance
will keep them in top operating condition and
prolong their life. Your new gas appliance is no
exception. By following these cleaning procedures
on a timely basis, your appliance will be kept clean
and working properly with minimum effort.
Spiders and small insects occasionally spin webs or
make nests in the burner tubes during warehousing
and transit. These webs can lead to a gas ow
obstruction which could result in a re in and around
the burner tubes. Cleaning with a soft brush before
use and at least every six months is recommended.
This type of re is known as ‘FLASH-BACK’ and can
cause serious damage to your appliance and create
an unsafe operating condition for the user. Although
an obstructed burner tube is not the only cause of
‘FLASH-BACK’ it is the most common cause and
frequent inspection and cleaning of the burner tubes
is necessary.
Flash-Back
If re occurs in and around the burner, immediately
turn off gas at its source and turn the burner control
to ‘OFF’, wait until the appliance has cooled, then
clean the burner tubes and burner ports.
Cleaning
After cooking, turn burner gas cylinder valve and
burner valve to ‘OFF’. Let the burner cool before
attempting to clean and store. After use brush
excess dust, dirt and debris from the burner
surface. Ensure all the burner ports are clean
and open before storing and re-using. Ensure the
bottoms of all cooking pots / pans are cleaned of
any dirt or discolouration after use.
