Care and Cleaning

Cleaning the Knobs

caution

Do not soak the knobs in water or put them in the dishwasher.

1.Turn the knobs to the OFF position.

2.Disconnect the cooktop power plug from the electrical outlet.

3.Grasp each knob and pull up to remove.

4.Wash the knobs with a solution of warm soapy water. Dacor recommends hand dishwashing liquid.

5.To replace the knobs, align the “D-shaped” opening on the bottom of the knob with the end of the valve shaft. Carefully push the knob on until it stops.

IMPORTANT:

The knob for the center burner is different from the standard burner knobs. It has a longer adjustment range indicator.

Cleaning the Grates and WOK Ring

caution

DO NOT use any of the cleaners listed below to clean the burners, igniters or stainless steel surfaces.

Do not clean the cooktop grates, burner parts or WOK ring in a dishwasher. They will be damaged.

The grates and optional WOK ring are coated with a porcelain finish.

• For everyday cleaning, use a soft cloth or non-abra-

sive pad with warm soapy water to clean all of the porcelain parts.

If necessary, tough stains may be removed by applying full-strength sprays such as Simple Green™, Ajax™ All-Purpose Cleaner or Formula 409™. To minimize wear, use the mildest cleaner needed to get the surface clean.

For extremely stubborn stains, you may use a mildly abrasive cleaner or applicator, such as Soft Scrub™, Bon Ami™, S.O.S.® pads or other soap-filled steel wool pads. Use these cleaners with extreme care and only on occasion. Exten- sive use of these types of abrasives will eventu- ally damage the porcelain enamel.
