The grill burner should be cleaned
after each use. It can be cleaned with
a non-abrasive pad or in the dishwasher.
Rinse and dry thoroughly before using
again. For heavy soil, the burner should
be cleaned first with a soapy steel wool
pad, rinsed and dried. Then it can be
cleaned in a self-cleaning oven for
two hours.
NOTE: Check to be sure all burner ports
are open. To open clogged ports, insert
a twist tie directly into each port.

The grate should be cleaned after
each use. It can be cleaned with
detergent and a plastic scrubber, such
as Tuffy, or washed in the dishwasher
if burned-on residue is first removed.
For heavy soil, the grate can be soaked
in hot, soapy water mixed with
household ammonia.
Do not use metal brushes or abrasive
scouring pads or other scrubbers
intended to clean outdoor grills.
These will remove the finish as well
as scratch the grate. Do not clean
in a self-cleaning oven or use oven
cleaners on the grate.
Grill Grate
Vent Grille: The vent grille lifts off easily.
Wipe clean or wash in the sink with mild
household detergents.
NOTE: On models with a white vent grille,
stubborn stains may be removed by
soaking the grille in a 50/50 mix of
bleach and water overnight. After
cleaning, rinse the grille thoroughly
and dry it before replacing.
Filter: Turn off the fan before removing.
Turn the filter retainer clip to remove
the filter. The filter is a permanent type
and should be cleaned when soiled.
Clean in the sink with warm water
and liquid dishwashing detergent.
IMPORTANT: Do not operate the fan
without the filter. The filter should always
be placed at an angle. As you face
the front of the cooktop, the top of
the filter should rest against the left
side of the vent opening and the bottom
of the filter should rest against the right
side of the ventilation chamber at the
bottom. If the filter is flat against the fan
wall, ventilation effectiveness is reduced.
Ventilation Chamber: This area, which
houses the filter, should be cleaned
in the event of spills or whenever it
becomes coated with a film of grease.
The ventilation chamber may be cleaned
with a paper towel, damp cloth or
sponge and a mild household
detergent or cleanser.
Vent Grille and Filter
When replacing the filter, make
sure it rests, at an angle, on the
supports in the vent opening.
Latch it in place.
