Cleaning Procedures

CAUTION

Be sure appliance is off and all parts are cool before handling or cleaning. This is to avoid damage and possible burns.

To prevent staining or discoloration, clean appliance after each use.

If a part is removed, be sure it is cor- rectly replaced.

BURNER GRATES

PORCELAIN ON CAST IRON

Wash grates with warm, soapy water and a nonabrasive, plastic scrubbing pad. For stubborn soils, clean with a soap-filled, nonabrasive pad or Cooktop Cleaning Creme (Part #20000001)** and a sponge.

water, rinse and dry. Never wipe a warm

or hot surface with a damp cloth as this

may damage the surface and may cause

a steam burn.

For stubborn soil, use mildly abrasive

cleaning agents such as baking soda

paste or Bon Ami*. Do not use abrasive

cleaners such as steel wool pads or oven

cleaners. These products will scratch or

permanently damage the surface.
