How do I clean the stainless steel surface?

Use a mild detergent and a soft cloth to wipe the surface. Avoid abrasive cleaners.

Turn off the gas control knob immediately. Wait a few minutes and then try to reignite the burner. If it repeatedly goes out, there may be a problem with the gas supply or burner.

Can I use any type of cookware?

Clean the pan supports regularly to remove food debris. Soaking them in warm, soapy water can help.

What is the UltraRapid burner used for?

The hob has safety valves that cut off the gas supply if the flame is accidentally extinguished.
