2. Wash the knobs with a sponge and warm, soapy water. Rinse and dry

which can damage the finish of the knobs.

 

 

 

 

3. Replace the knobs. Make sure all knobs are turned off.

NOTE: Do not let foods containing acids (such as vinegar, tomato, or lemon

 

 

 

 

juice) remain on the surface. Acids may remove the glossy finish. Also wipe

 

 

 

 

up milk or egg spills when the cooktop is cool. Be careful when cleaning

 

 

 

 

around the model and serial number plate; too much scrubbing could

 

 

 

 

remove the numbers.
