Care and Maintenance

CLEANING THE COOKTOP

Be careful cleaning any part of this appliance while hot.

All parts of the appliance can be cleaned with hot soapy water, rinsed, dried and buffed to a shine with a soft, heavy pile cloth. Always try this first, as it is the mildest cleaning procedure.

1.Use the mildest cleansers first. Some brands of cleaners are harsher then others and may cause metal parts to discolor or corrode, read their directions. Be sure all the cooktop controls are turned OFF and the appliance is COOL before using any type of aerosol cleaner on or around the appliance.The chemical that produces the spraying action could, in the presence of heat, ignite.

2.To avoid marring the surfaces, always rub metal finishes in the direction of the polish lines. The cleaner will be more effective when used in the direction of the polish lines.

3.Use only clean sponges, soft cloths, paper towels, plastic non-metal soap pads for cleaning or scouring, as recommended in this section.

4.Be sure to rinse all parts thoroughly and to wipe dry to avoid water marks.

BRAND NAMES:

In this section, the use of name brands is intended only to indicate a type of cleaner.

This does not constitute an endorsement.The omission of any name brand cleaner does not imply its adequacy or inadequacy. Many products are regional in distribution and can be found in the local markets and department stores.

CLEANING THE BURNER GRATES:

Turn off all the burners and allow the grates to cool before starting to clean the cooktop. Rapid cooling of the grates, for instance, placing hot grates in cool or tepid water to clean, can thermally shock the porcelain coating and cause cracking or chipping. If you wipe off any part of the cooktop while it is hot, do so carefully as using a wet sponge or cloth can result in steam burns.

Once the grates are cool they may be wiped clean while on the cooktop using hot soapy water, then rinsed and wiped dry or they may be placed in the dishwasher for easy cleaning.

The occasional use of mild abrasive cleansers such as Bon-Ami®, Soft Scrub® or a soap-filled plastic or non-metal pad is okay. Abrasive cleansers, used vigorously or too often, can eventually harm the enamel. Apply with a damp sponge, rinse thoroughly and dry.
