Care and Cleaning
WARNING
Clean only the parts of the cooktop listed in this •
manual. Clean them only in the manner specified.
To avoid dangerous fumes or damage to your
•
cooktop’s surfaces and accessories, use only the types
of cleaning solutions specified in this manual.
To avoid electrical shock or burns, turn off the burners
•
and make sure that all parts are cool before cleaning.
DO NOT turn the burners on during cleaning.
Do not use a steam cleaner to clean the cooktop.
•
Steam could penetrate the electrical components
and cause a short circuit. After cleaning the burners,
reassemble all of the burner parts before attempting to
operate the cooktop.
After cleaning the burners, always dry and reassemble
•
the cooktop parts completely before use. See page 5.
CAUTION
Do not try to remove heavy spills with a sharp object •
such as a knife or metal spatula. Sharp objects may
scratch your cooktop’s surfaces.
To prevent damage, do not use abrasive or corrosive
•
cleaners or applicators such as steel wool or scouring
pads, on any part of the cooktop unless instructed to
do so. Use only a sponge, soft cloth, fibrous or plastic
brush, or nylon cleaning pad for cleaning the surfaces
of your cooktop.
Take care when cleaning around the control valve
•
stems. If you get moisture inside the holes in the
chassis, damage to the cooktop can occur.
Do not soak the knobs in water or put them in the
•
dishwasher.
Cleaning the Cooktop
To keep the cooktop looking and operating its best,
clean it after every use. Also, quickly wipe up spills
that occur while cooking. Be careful not to touch any
hot areas.
If you allow spills to sit on hot burner parts, they
will burn on and be very difficult to clean. Certain
types of food, such as tomatoes, citrus juices, vin-
egar, alcohol and milk can damage the finishes if
you allow them to stand for any length of time.
IMPORTANT : The cooktop is exposed to extremely
high temperatures. The grates are under high stress
when hot utensils are placed on them. Also, the
cooktop parts are occasionally exposed to acidic
food spill-overs. These severe operating conditions,
cause the porcelain enamel parts on your cooktop
to undergo a change in appearance over time. If
you care for and clean these parts carefully, you will
slow down, but not eliminate, the aging process.
Disassembly
For safety, 1.
disconnect the
cooktop power
cord from
the electrical
outlet.
When the
2.
cooktop is
cool, remove
the grates
from the top of
the cooktop.
Disassemble
3.
the burners
by lifting the
burner caps and burner rings off of the burner
bases.
Cleaning the Grates, Spill Trays and
Optional WOK Ring
CAUTION
Do not clean the cooktop grates, burner parts or WOK
ring in a dishwasher. They will be damaged.
IMPORTANT: DO NOT use any of the cleaners
listed below to clean the burners and igniters. See
the facing page for burner and igniter cleaning
instructions. Also, if your cooktop is equipped with
stainless steel spill trays, see the Cleaning Stain-
less Steel Surfaces section for spill tray cleaning
instructions.
The grates, the spill tray (on some models) and
optional WOK ring are coated with a porcelain finish.
For everyday cleaning, use a soft cloth or non- •
abrasive pad with warm soapy water to clean all
of the porcelain parts.
If necessary, tough
•
stains may be
removed by apply-
ing full-strength
sprays such as Simple
Green™, Ajax™ All-
Purpose Cleaner or
Formula 409™. To minimize wear, use the mild-
est cleaner needed to get the surface clean.
For extremely stubborn stains, you may use a
•
mildly abrasive cleaner or applicator, such as
Soft Scrub™, Bon Ami™, S.O.S. ® pads or other
soap-filled steel wool pads. Use these cleaners
with extreme care and only on occasion. Exten-
sive use of these types of abrasives will eventu-
ally damage the porcelain enamel.
