CARE AND CLEANING RECOMMENDATIONS

PART / MATERIAL

CLEANING SUGGESTIONS

BEING CAREFUL

Main Top/

Porcelain Enamel

Soft Scrub may be used here. With a cool or slightly warm 

surface, use a damp sponge or cloth as recommended by the 

manufacturer.

Since the surface is glass (it can be scratched by certain 

materials) try to rub gently in small circles to allow time and 

chemical reactions to take place.

Sealed Burners 

(Cuisine)

Caps and burner heads can be removed for cleaning using 

hot sudsy water. A stiff nylon bristle tooth brush can be used 

to clean burner port openings.

Remember to dry out the ports (try to blow air through them 

if you like). Water clogged ports burn with erratic flames and 

could be dangerous.

Open Burners 

(Performer)

The cast iron burner heads are heavy and porcelain coated. 

If they are dirty, remove any large debris and gently scrub 

under hot, soapy water.

Like the sealed burners, remember to dry out the ports (try to 

blow air through them if you like). Water clogged ports burn 

with erratic flames and could be dangerous.

Control Knobs/

Powder Paint

Use dry hands to pull off the knobs; hot sudsy water works 

best here…

…with a sponge to avoid scratching

Chrome Knob Bezels

Hot soapy water works well here, with a sponge or soft 

cloth.

As with any round feature that meets the stainless steel grain, 

be careful to clean the bezels in a circular motion – and not 

contact the stainless steel control panel.

Exterior Finish

Island Trim

Use hot soapy water, Fantastic, Formula 409, rinse and dry 

immediately. For hard water spots, try household vinegar or 

CLR. If there is any heat discoloration, consider using Zud, 

Wright’s All Purpose Polish or Blue Away.

Rub lightly in the direction of the grain of the stainless steel. 

Salt (sodium chloride), chlorine or chlorine compounds in 

some cleaners are corrosive to stainless steel.

Grates/Porcelain 

Enamel on Cast Iron

Hot water and detergent with scrubby, or soap filled steel 

wool pad for really tough stains will work.

Remove sugar or acid based spills, they tend to attack the 

enamel. Remember the grates are heavy, use care when lifting 

and replacing.

Griddle

Moisten a soft scrub cloth, adding a drop of mild dish soap to 

create a soapy lather – and wipe the griddle from left to right.

Use plastic spatulas and spoons when working the griddle. See 

more tips in the discussion on griddle operation above.
