Smeg SA9065 User Manual

 

The door gaskets can be dismantled for thorough 
cleaning of the ovens. Before removing the gaskets the 
oven doors must be removed as previously described. 
With the doors removed, raise the tabs at the corners 
as shown in the figure. 

 

 

This appliance does not need any special maintenance. However, a few 
simple operations have to be carried out periodically to prevent 
malfunctioning: 

 

 

 

Burners: the burners must be cleaned after every use to ensure correct 
combustion; make sure that all the openings and flame ports are clean and 
free of obstacles, and that the burners rest firmly on their supports. 

 

 

Gas connection: the gas connection must be checked periodically (at least 
every 2 years). Each time the cooker is moved the connection may be 
stressed: test it for leakages using special sprays or a solution of soap and 
water. 

 

 

Flexible pipes: if a flexible pipe is used, it must be inspected periodically 
(once a year) for leakages: if the surface of the pipe appears rigid and 
cracked, disconnect immediately the cooker from the gas supply and 
replace the pipe with a new one. 

 

 

Valves: if the gas valves get stuck or hard to turn, they need to be cleaned 
and re-greased; this operation must be carried out by an authorised person. 

 

 

Oven gasket: with time the oven gasket may harden and crack on the 
surface, resulting in leakage of heat from the oven and higher temperatures 
on the control panel and knobs. Check it periodically (once a year) and 
replace it if necessary.
