Clean cast iron open top grates with a mild soap and water solution. Rinse thoroughly and dry with a
clean, water-absorbent towel. Immediately after drying (with grates still removed from the range top),
season grates lightly with liquid vegetable or spray-type cooking oil.
After seasoning, replace grates onto the range. Turn on all open top sections to LOW and allow them to
burn for at least 15 minutes before using pots or pans on the range top. Season the open top grates
after each cleaning. Failure to season grates will cause grates to rust.
To remove discoloration, use a nonabrasive cleaner. Always rub with the grain of the metal. Stainless
steel and chrome areas of the range can be polished by using a soft dry cloth. If needed, add stainless
steel polish to the soft cloth.
EXTERIOR CLEANING
Daily
Clean exterior finish with a mild solution of soap or grease-dissolving cleaner.
STAINLESS STEEL
Here are a few simple cleaning procedures that have been found effective for keeping stainless steel
equipment clean, sparkling and bright.
General Cleaning
Use ordinary soap or detergent and water for routine cleaning of stainless steel. To prevent water spots
and streaks, rinse thoroughly with warm water and wipe dry with a soft clean cloth. The addition of a
rinsing agent will also help prevent spotting. Do not pressure wash any portion of the range.
Fingerprints
Fingerprints are sometimes a problem on highly polished surfaces of stainless steel. They can be
minimized by applying a cleaner that will leave a thin oily or waxy film. To use these cleaners, simply
wipe on and remove excess with a soft dry cloth. After using, subsequent fingerprints will usually
disappear when wiped lightly with a soft cloth or with a cloth containing a little of the cleaner. If the
surface is especially dirty to start, wash first with soap or detergent and water.
Heat Tint
Straw-colored or slightly darkened areas may appear on stainless steel in and around ovens and
ranges where temperatures reach 500°F (260°C) or more. This "heat tint" is caused by a slight
oxidation of the stainless steel and is not harmful.
To control or minimize this condition, never use more heat than is absolutely necessary.
MAINTENANCE & ADJUSTMENTS
FLUE
Check the flue when it is cool to be sure it is free of obstructions.
