CARE AND CLEANING

Proper care and cleaning are important so your cooktop will give you efficient and satisfactory service. Follow these directions carefully in caring for it.

Before cleaning any part of your cooktop, be sure all burners are off and DISCONNECT ELECTRIC POWER TO THE COOKTOP at the fuse box or circuit breaker panel, or pull the cooktop power plug, located beneath the cooktop and inside the cabinets.

Lift-Up Top

Clean the area under the cooktop often. Built-up soil, especially grease, may catch fire.

To make cleaning under the top easier, the top may be lifted up and supported by a locking arm.

After cleaning under the top with hot, soapy water, lower the top back in place. Be careful not to pinch your fingers.

To raise cooktop:

Be sure all burners are turned off and unit is cool. Remove cooktop burner bowls, grates and control knobs. Grasp cooktop at the front and lift up. Raise the support rod into place and hook it into the bracket on the underside of the cooktop to hold the cooktop while cleaning.

Be sure to secure the cooktop support rod in the main- top strike catch.

To lower cooktop:

Carefully replace the support rod andw lower the cooktop. Press into place. Make sure the strikes fit in the catches to fasten the cooktop. Replace four surface units and control knobs.

Porcelain Cooktop

The porcelain enamel finish is sturdy but breakable if misused.

This finish is acid resistant. However, any acid foods spilled (such as fruit juices, tomato or vinegar) should not be permitted to remain on the finish.

If acids spill on the cooktop while it is hot, use a dry paper towel or cloth to wipe it up right away. When the surface has cooled, wash with soap and water or cleansing powders. Rinse well.

For other spills such as fat smatterings, wash with soap and water or cleansing powders after the surface has cooled. Rinse well. Polish with a dry cloth.

Control Knobs

The control knobs may be removed for cleaning.

To remove knob, pull it straight off the stem. If knob is difficult

to remove, place a thin cloth # (like a handkerchief) or /

a piece of string under ‘&@

and around the knob edge and pull up.

Wash knobs in soap and water but do not soak.

To replace knob, match the “D” shaft on the knob to the “D” shaft on the stem. Do not force the knob.

Control Panel

It’s a good idea to wipe the control panel clean after each use of the cooktop. For a more thorough cleaning, the knobs can be removed by pulling them off the knob stems. Clean with mild soap and water, rinse with clean water and polish dry with a soft cloth.

Do not use abrasive cleaners, strong liquid cleaners or oven cleaners on the control panel—they will damage the finish. A 50/50 solution of vinegar and hot water works well.
