How to Clean

For general cleaning

, use hot, soapy water and a cloth. 

For more difficult soils and

built-up grease

, apply a liquid detergent directly onto the soil. Leave on soil for 30

to 60 minutes. Rinse with a damp cloth and dry. 

DO NOT 

use abrasive cleaners on

any of these materials; they can scratch.

Before cleaning, 

turn all controls to OFF. Clean the glass as instructed in General

Care & Cleaning section under 

Cooktop Cleaning and Maintenance

.

Clean burner grates in the dishwasher and dry upon removal. If soils are not

removed, follow the cooktop cleaning instructions below.
Gentle scouring with a soapy scouring pad will remove most spots. Rinse with a

1:1 solution of clean water and ammonia. 

If necessary,

 cover difficult spots with an

ammonia-soaked paper towel for 30 to 40 minutes. Rinse with clean water and a

damp cloth, then scrub with a soap-filled scouring pad. Rinse and wipe dry with a

clean cloth. Remove all cleaners or the porcelain may become damaged during

future heating. 

DO NOT

 use spray oven cleaners on the cooktop.

The holes in the burners of your cooktop must be kept clean at all times for proper

ignition and a complete, even flame.

 

Clean the burner holes routinely with a small

gauge wire or needle and especially after bad spillovers which could clog these

holes.
To remove, clean and replace sealed burner units; follow the instructions in General

Care & Cleaning section under 

Cleaning the Burner Grates, Burner Caps,

Burner Heads

. For stubborn stains, scrub with soap and water or a mild abrasive

cleanser and damp cloth. Dry the burners  thoroughly in a warm oven for 30 minutes.

Then replace them, making sure they are seated and level.

 DO NOT 

put burner units

in the dishwasher.

Clean 

stainless steel

 with hot, soapy water and a dishcloth. Rinse with clean

water and a cloth. 

Do not use cleaners with high concentrations of

chlorides or chlorines.

 Do not use harsh scrubbing cleaners. Only use

kitchen cleaners that are especially made for cleaning stainless steel. Always

be sure to rinse the cleaners from the surface as bluish stains may occur

during heating that cannot be removed.
