CARE & CLEANING

Cleaning the cooktop, burner caps & grates

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

The cooktop, Burner Heads and Caps should be routinely cleaned. Keeping the Burner Head Ports clean will prevent improper ignition and an uneven fl ame. Refer to the following instructions:

IMPORTANT

THE COOKTOP IS NOT REMOVABLE. Do not attempt to remove or lift the cooktop.

CAUTION

Pay attention to not damage electrodes. Damaged electrodes may cause a delayed ignition or prevent the burner from igniting.

CAUTION

Any additions, changes or conversions required in order for this appliance to perform satisfactorily must be made by an authorized Service Center.

Do not remove any parts from the cooktop until they have completely cooled and are safe to handle. Do not operate the surface Burners without the Burner Caps and Burner Heads properly in place.

To Clean the surface Burner Caps and Burner Heads- Use a soap-fi lled scouring pad or a mild abrasive cleanser to clean the surface Burner Caps. The ports (or slots) around the Burner Heads must be routinely checked. If residue remains in these ports (or slots), use a small-gauge wire or needle to clean the slots or holes. For proper fl ow of gas and ignition of the burner—DO

NOT ALLOW SPILLS, FOOD, CLEANING AGENTS OR ANY OTHER MATERIAL TO ENTER THE GAS ORIFICE HOLDER OPENING. ALWAYS keep the surface Burner Caps in place whenever the gas Burners are in use or not.

To Clean the Burner Grates- Be sure burners and grates are cool before you place your hand, a pot holder, cleaning cloths or other material on them. The cast iron burner grates can be washed in hot soapy water. Rinse thoroughly and dry the grates with a cloth - don't put them on the cooktop while still wet. Be sure the grates are positioned securely over the burners.

To remove burned on food, place the grates in a covered container or plastic bag. Add 1/4 cup ammonia and soak for 30 minutes. Wash, rinse well and dry. An abrasive cleaner can be used for stubborn stains.

To Clean the Cooktop and contoured areas of the cooktop- If a spill occurs on the porcelain cooktop, blot up spill with an absorbent cloth. Rinse with a clean, damp cloth and wipe dry. Do not use harsh abrasive cleaners on the cooktop. They can scratch the porcelain. Completely rinse any mild cleaners used from the surface or the porcelain cooktop may become damaged during future heating. DO NOT use spray oven cleaners on the cooktop.
