Cleaning the Cooktop, Burner Heads, 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 flame. Refer to the following instructions:

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

THE FIXED OVEN VENT IS NOT REMOVABLE. Do not attempt to remove the fixed oven vent cover.

Use caution when replacing the Burner Caps so the Electrodes are not damaged. This may cause a delayed ignition or prevent the burner from igniting.

To Clean the Ceramic Glass Cooktop- See Ceramic Glass Cooktop Cleaning & Maintenance later in this section.

Ceramic Glass Cooktop Cleaning and Maintenance

Consistent and proper cleaning is essential to maintaining your ceramic glass cooktop

Prior to using your cooktop for the first time, apply the recommended CookTopQ Cleaning Creme to the ceramic surface (on the web visit www.sears.com for replacement cooktop cleaner, item number 40079). Buff with a non-abrasive cloth or no-scratch cleaning pad. This will make cleaning easier when soiled from cooking. The special cooktop cleaning cream leaves a protective finish on the glass to help prevent scratches and abrasions.

Sliding aluminum or copper clad bottom pans on the cooktop can cause metal markings on the cooktop surface. These marks should be removed immediately after the cooktop has cooled using the cooktop cleaning cream. Metal marks can become permanent if not removed prior to future use.

Cookware (cast iron, metal, ceramic or glass) with rough bottoms can mark or scratch the cooktop surface. Do not slide anything metal or glass across the cooktop. Do not use your cooktop as a cutting board or work surface in the kitchen. Do not cook foods directly on the cooktop surface without a pan. Do not drop heavy or hard objects on the glass cooktop, because they may cause it to crack.
