HOW TO CLEAN

aWipe off after each use.

. Before cleaning, make sure the cooktop and the surface units are cool.

1After each cleaning, rinse well and heat surface units until dry.

. To darken surface units or to remove rust spots, use salt-free oil on a soft cloth. After each cleaning, apply thin coat of oil to surface units, wipe excess oil from stainless steel trim rings, then heat for 3 - 5 minutes.

Slight smoking of oil will occur. Use Electrol” dressing (Part No. 814030): Follow directions on the dressing. NOTE: This will improve surface unit appearance, but will not eliminate dark spots.
