Care and Cleaning
Stainless Steel Cooktop
Clean up spatters with a damp cloth. Remove heavier soil with warm, soapy water.
Do not use abrasives of any kind on the control panel.
The control knobs may be removed for easier cleaning. To remove a knob, pull it straight off the stem. Wash the knobs in soap and water but do not soak.
Clean the grille immediately after cooking. Turn off the burner. To protect your hand from steam and heat, wear a barbecue mitt. Scrub the grille by dipping a brass bristle barbecue brush frequently into a bowl of water.
The steam created softens the food particles and assists the cleaning process. The food particles will drop into the drip tray or into the radiant tray holding the ceramic briquettes. Be sure to clean the drain tube, drip tray and liner after they have cooled.
