MAINTENANCE
Use
Pans
• Always ensure that the flames remain under the pan.
A lot of energy is lost if flames burn around the pan. The handles
may also become too hot.
• Do not use pans with a base diameter smaller than 12 cm. Smaller
pans are not as stable.
Wok ring
The wok ring for use with the wok burner supplied or obtainable as
an accessory provides extra stability for woks with a round base.
Small pan grid
The small pan grid supplied or obtainable as an accessory makes it
possible to use very small pans.
Pan support
Place the pan supports vertically, without sliding over the drip tray.
Position the pan supports on the drip tray in the correct way.
Burner
Use the positioning pins (1) to put the burner parts together.
Wok burner
Place the wok burner in the correct way. Placing the wok burner parts
incorrectly can result in a non-functioning or poorly functioning burner.

MAINTENANCE
Maintenance
Regular maintenance after use prevents food residue from encrusting
and creating persistent stains. Use a mild cleaning detergent to remove
stains.
Clean the control knobs, burners and pan supports first and then the
drip tray or glass cover. This will prevent the drip tray or glass cover
from becoming dirty again during cleaning.
Attention! Burner parts should not be cleaned in the dishwasher.
Dishwasher detergents can corrode burner parts!
Stainless steel drip tray with coating
Drip trays with an ‘easy clean’ coating are easily cleaned with a mild
cleaning detergent. Do not use aggressive cleaning products! They may
damage the coating.
Persistent stains on enamel (pan supports, burner caps, drip trays)
Persistent stains can best be removed with a fluid detergent or a plastic
scouring sponge. Never use scouring powder, scouring pads, sharp
objects or aggressive cleaning products.
Brass wok burner parts
Some wok burner parts are made of brass. It is not unusual to see a
change in the colour of the brass as a result of the high temperatures
involved in wok use.
Consult the www.asko.com website for additional maintenance
and cleaning instructions!
