Maintenance
● Make sure all controls are OFF and
the cooktop is cool before cleaning.
● Make sure that all cooktop surfaces,
burner grates and burners are cool
before cleaning or disassembling
cooktop.
● DO NOT use oven cleaners, bleach,
or rust removers on the cooktop or
burner grates.
● DO NOT obstruct the flow of
combustion and ventilation air.
● Keep appliance area clear of
combustible materials, gasoline and
other flammable vapors and liquids.
● Clean cooktop with cooktop cleaner
only. Follow directions on the
container.
● Never use a wire brush or metallic
item for cleaning burner ports or
orifices. Brush may "shed" bristles
that may lodge in the orifice or
burner ports and cause a fire or
explosion.
● Clean all surfaces as soon as
possible after boilovers or spillovers.
● Use warm soapy water only to
clean the burner grates, cooktops,
painted surfaces, porcelain surfaces,
stainless steel surfaces and plastic
items on your cooktop. Do not use
grit or acid-type cleaners.
● DO NOT use steel wool, or abrasive
cleaners, or acid type cleaners such
as chlorine bleach on your cooktop
or grate systems. They will damage
your cooktop. Use only non-abrasive
plastic scrubbing pads.
● DO NOT allow foods containing acids
(such as lemons or tomato juice or
vinegar) to remain on porcelain or
painted surfaces. Acids may remove
the glossy finish. Wipe up egg spills
when cooktop is cool.
● DO NOT wash warm porcelain
surfaces. Allow these areas to cool
before cleaning. You could burn
yourself or the porcelain could crack.
● Pitting and discoloration will result if
spills are allowed to remain for any
length of time on stainless steel.
● DO NOT allow spillovers to remain
on the burner caps. The caps could
become permanently stained.
● When cleaning around the burners
use care to prevent damage to the
electrode (if so equipped). If a sponge
or cloth should catch the metal
igniter electrode, it could damage or
break the electrode. If this occurs the
burner will not light.
Storage
● Dry all surfaces and burner box,
then spray surfaces with cooking oil
substance to preserve the surface
from rusting during long term
storage. Wipe
reuse.
