Care and Cleaning

Cleaning the Knobs and Trim Rings

Turn the knobs to the off position to remove the 

1. 

knobs and trim rings for cleaning or replace-

ment.
Disconnect the cooktop power plug from the 

2. 

electrical outlet.
Grasp each knob and pull straight up to remove.

3. 

The trim rings may be removed for cleaning if 

4. 

necessary. Take note of the position of each trim 

ring before removal. Grasp each trim ring and 

pull straight up to remove.

Wash the knobs and trim rings with a solution 

5. 

of warm soapy water. Dacor recommends hand 

dishwashing liquid.
Insert the trim rings into the holes in the posi-

6. 

tions noted in step 4. Turn the ring until the 

flame icon is in the 9 o’clock position for each 

trim ring.

To replace the knobs, align the “D-shaped” 

7. 

opening on the bottom of the knob with the end 

of the valve shaft. Carefully push the knob on 

until it stops.
Connect the cooktop power plug to the electrical 

8. 

outlet.

Cleaning the Optional Griddle

Clean the griddle after each use. Wash it thoroughly 

in hot soapy water to avoid stains from grease 

build-up. The griddle is coated with a non-stick coat-

ing for easy cleaning. Warm water and liquid deter-

gent are all that are needed for cleaning. Remove 

stubborn spots with a non-abrasive plastic mesh 

pad. To prevent scratching, do not use abrasives or 

abrasive cleaners. Use the soft side of a sponge to 

scrub it. Dry it with a lint-free cloth.

Replacing the Grate Feet

The rubber feet on the bottom of the grate supports 

can be replaced if they are lost or damaged to pre-

vent damage to the spill tray. If necessary, you may 

use a pair of needle nose pliers to pull the feet free 

from the grate.
