Cooktop surface
The porcelain-enameled cooktop surface needs to be kept clean. We recommend
that you remove food spills immediately after they take place.
1.
Turn off all surface burners.
2.
Wait until all burner grates cool down,
and then remove them.
3.
Clean the cooktop surface using a soft
cloth. If food spills run into gaps of the
burner components, remove the burner
cap and the head, and wipe up the
spills.
4.
When cleaning is finished, re-install the
burner components, and then put the
burner grates into position.
CAUTION
•
Do not use a steel-wool pad or abrasive cleaner, which can scratch or damage
the enamel surface.
•
Do not remove the cooktop surface to clean it. The gas lines leading to the
burner manifolds can be damaged, resulting in a fire or system failure.
Outer side
