Cleaning the Cooktop:

The cooktop is designed to make cleaning easier. Because the four burners are sealed, cleanups are easy when spillovers are cleaned up immediately.

To clean, wipe with a clean, damp cloth and wipe dry.

The contoured well areas, burner cap, burner pan (some models) and burner head should be routinely cleaned. Keeping the burner ports clean will prevent improper ignition and an uneven flame. Refer to the following section for instructions.
