General Care & Cleaning

Cleaning Various Parts of Your Cooktop

Before cleaning any part of the cooktop, be sure all controls are turned OFF and the cooktop is COOL. REMOVE 
SPILLOVERS AND HEAVY SOILING AS SOON AS POSSIBLE. REGULAR CLEANINGS NOW WILL REDUCE THE 
DIFFICULTY AND EXTENT OF A MAJOR CLEANING LATER.

Surfaces

How to Clean

Control Knobs

For general cleaning, use hot soapy water and a cloth. For more diffi cult 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 or dull the fi nish.

Control Panel

Wipe the control panel clean after each use. Before cleaning the control panel, turn all controls 
to OFF and remove the control knobs. To remove, pull each knob straight off the shaft. Clean 
using hot, soapy water and a cloth. Be sure to squeeze excess water from the cloth before 
wiping the panel; especially when wiping around the controls. Excess water in or around the 
controls may cause damage to the appliance. To replace knobs after cleaning, line up the fl at 
sides of both the knob and the shaft; then push the knob into place.

Stainless Steel

Clean with hot, soapy water and a dishcloth. Rinse with clean water and 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 off from the surface as bluish stains may occur during heating that 
cannot be removed.

Porcelain Enamel

Burner Grates, Cooktop 
Surface

Gentle scouring with a soapy scouring pad will remove most spots. Rinse with a 1:1 solution of 
clear water and ammonia. If necessary, cover diffi cult spots with an ammonia-soaked paper towel 
for 30 to 40 minutes. Rinse with clean water and a damp cloth, and then scrub with a soap-fi lled 
scouring pad. Rinse and wipe dry with a clean cloth or paper towel. Remove all cleaners or the 
porcelain may become damaged during future heating. 

DO NOT

 use spray oven cleaners on the 

cooktop.

Grease Filter

For general cleaning, the grease fi lter can be cleaned in the dishwasher.

Grate Seal

Clean with a mild solution of soap and warm water.  Rinse clean and dry before use. The grate 
seal may be cleaned in a dishwasher, TOP RACK ONLY.

Porcelain Enamel Cooktop Cleaning Instructions (some models)

The cooktop is designed to make cleaning easier. Because the gas burner are sealed, cleanups are easy when spillovers 
are cleaned up immediately. Correct and consistent cleaning is essential to maintaining your porcelain enamel cooktop. 
If food spills and grease spatters are not removed, they may burn onto the surface of the cooktop and cause permanent 
discoloration.

 DO NOT 

use 

a cooktop cleaner on a hot 
cooktop. The fumes can be 
hazardous to your health, and 
can chemically damage the 
cooking surface.

 Before cleaning 

the surface cooktop, be sure the 
controls are turned to OFF and 
the cooktop is cool.

 DO NOT use 

commercial oven cleaners 

on 

the 

cooktop

 

DO NOT

 remove any parts from the cooktop until they have 

completely cooled and are safe to handle.

Daily Cleaning
For normal soil:

1.  Allow cooktop surface to cool.
2.  Wipe off spills and spatters using a clean paper towel or a clean cloth with warm, 

soapy water.

3.  If needed, use mild household cleaners or a soap-fi lled steel wool pad.
4.  Be sure to rinse off all cleaning solutions or the porcelain may become damaged 

during future heating.

For heavy, burned-on soil:

1.  Allow cooktop surface to cool.
2.  Use a soap fi lled scouring pad with warm water or cover heavily soiled spots with a 

solution of clear water and ammonia. Scour gently. Rinse and wipe dry with a clean 
cloth.

DO NOT use harsh abrasive cleaners on the cooktop. They can scratch the 
stainless steel / porcelain.
