surface under cooktop) DO NOT use commercial oven cleaners on the exterior surfaces including rangetop and door frame.

Correct and consistent cleaning is essential to maintaining your porcelain enamel cooktop. If food spills and grease spatters are not removed, they may burn onto the surface of the cooktop and cause permanent discoloration.

Daily Cleaning

For normal soil:

1.Allow cooktop surface to cool.

2.Wipe off spills and spatters using a clean paper towel or a clean cloth with warm, soapy water.

3.If needed, use a Blue Multi-Purpose No Scratch Scrub Sponge or other mild household cleaners.

4.Be sure to rinse off the cleaners or the porcelain may become damaged during future heating.

For heavy, burned-on soil:

1.Allow cooktop surface to cool.

2.Use a soap filled scouring pad with warm water or cover heavily soiled spots with a solution of clear water and ammonia. Scour gently. Rinse and wipe dry with a clean cloth.

3.If any soil remains, apply a few drops of a recommended cooktop cleaning cream on the spots and rub gently using a clean damp cloth or scouring pad. Buff with a dry cloth until all soil and cream are removed. Frequent cleaning with the cooktop cleaning cream leaves a protective coating which helps in preventing scratches and abrasions.

For sugary spillovers:

Sugary spills can chemically damage your cooktop surface. Therefore, you must begin cleaning the spills while the cooktop is still hot. Use caution when following the steps below.

1.Turn off all surface units and remove all pans immediately.

2.Put on an oven mitt, wipe up carefully or move hot spills away from the element area with a clean damp cloth.

3.Allow the cooktop to cool. Follow the instructions above for heavy, burned-on soil.
