Care and Cleaning
Cleaning Burner Components and Igniters
CAUTION
Use care while cleaning the igniters. The porcelain is
fragile and can crack or break.
IMPORTANT
: The igniter(s) will not work properly
if the burner parts or the igniter itself are not clean.
Dirty or wet igniters may not spark at all.
After dissembling the burners, check for any dirt or
grime deposited on the individual parts, including
the igniters.
Clean completely around the igniter, including
•
over and under the edge of the metal top and
porcelain base. An firm toothbrush is idea for
this task. Use care while cleaning because the
porcelain is fragile and can crack or break. Do
not use water to clean the igniters. If necessary,
use a small amount of rubbing alcohol to help
dissolve grime
Examine the burner heads and cross rings.
•
Remove anything stuck in the holes with a
straightened paper clip, wire or needle. Be care-
ful not to scratch or damage the ring and head.
Do not distort the shape of the burner head
holes.
Clean all the burner parts, including the burner
•
bases, with window cleaner or rubbing alcohol.
Use a cleaning brush with plastic bristles or a
firm tooth brush. When done, rinse the parts
well with clean water. Dry all the parts thor-
oughly before re-assembling them.
Reassemble the cooktop according to the burner
•
and grate assembly instructions on page 5.
Test the burners after reassembling them. If
the flame is uneven, be sure that all the burner
parts are properly positioned, then check for any
remaining dirt or grime on the burner parts or
igniter. If erratic clicking is still present, make
sure the igniter is completely dry. If the unit still
exhibits problems after drying, call your local
Dacor Authorized Service Agent.
Cleaning Stainless Steel Surfaces
CAUTION
Always wipe stainless steel (silver colored) surfaces with
the grain. To prevent scratching, do not use abrasive
cleaners or scrubbers on stainless steel surfaces.
Clean stainless steel surfaces with a mild solu-
•
tion of detergent and warm water. Rinse and dry
with a soft, lint-free cloth.
You may also use Dacor Stainless Steel Cleaner
•
on the stainless steel surfaces. Use it according
to the directions on the package.
Cleaning the Knobs and Trim Rings
Wash the knobs regularly with a solution of warm
soapy water. Dacor recommends hand dishwashing
liquid.
Turn the knobs to the off position to remove
•
them for cleaning or replacement.
Grasp each knob and pull straight up, to remove.
•
Clean the outside edges of the trim rings while
•
the knobs are removed. Wipe them with a soft
damp rag.
To replace the knobs, align the “D-shaped”
•
opening on the bottom of the knob with the end
of the valve shaft. Carefully push the knob on
until it stops.
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.
