SERVICING
Always disconnect the appliance from the
electricity and gas mains before proceeding
with any servicing operation.
11) REPLACING HOT PLATE PARTS
When parts housed within the hot plate need
replacing, it is first necessary to remove the hot
plate itself from the cabinet, to overturn it, unscrew
screws “V” and to remove part (see fig. 15) and the
knobs fixed by pressure with the hans, in order to
take off the appliance.
After having carried out the above listed operations,
the burners (fig. 16), taps (fig. 17) and electrical
components can all be replaced (fig. 18).
It is advisable to change seal “D” whenever a tap is
replaced to ensure a perfect tightness.
Greasing the taps (see fig. 19)
If a tap becomes stiff to operate, it must be
immediately greased in compliance with the
following instructions:
- remove the tap.
- Clean the cone and its housing using a cloth
soaked in diluent.
- Lightly spread the cone with the relative grease.
- Fit the cone back in place, operate it several times
and then remove it again. Eliminate any excess
grease and check that the gas ducts have not
become clogged.
- Fit all parts back in place, complying with the
demounting order in reverse.
- Check the tightness by using soapy water. The
use of the flame is prohibited.
To facilitate the servicing technician’s task, here is a
chart with the types and sections of the powering
cables and the ratings of the electrical components.
