Care and cleaning of the cooktop.
Be sure electrical power is off and all surfaces are cool before cleaning any part of the cooktop.
Safety
How to Remove Packaging Tape
To assure no damage is done to the finish of the product, the safest way to remove the adhesive left from packaging tape on new appliances is an application of a household liquid dishwashing detergent, mineral oil or cooking oil.
Apply with a soft cloth and allow to soak. Wipe dry and then apply an appliance polish to thoroughly clean and protect the surface.
NOTE: The plastic tape must be removed from all chrome trim. It cannot be removed if it is baked on.
Glass Control Panel
The glass control panel on your cooktop has been tempered to withstand sudden temperature changes during cooking. Give it the normal care you would give any glass material.
While it is
If the glass is hot, wipe up spills with a dry cloth or paper towel. When the surface has cooled, wash, rinse and dry it. Alternately, when the glass is cool, spray it with glass or window cleaner. Avoid the use of cleaning powders or harsh abrasives that may scratch the surface.
Instructions
Molded rib
Spring clip
Clear groove
Control Knobs
The control knobs may be removed for easier cleaning.
Before removing the knobs for cleaning, please note that the knobs are in the OFF position. When replacing the knobs, check the OFF position to insure proper placement.
The knob has a groove in each side. The groove on one side has a spring clip. The other groove is clear. Check the inside of the knob and find the molded rib.
Wash knobs in soap and water but do not soak. Avoid getting water down into the knob stem holes.
Replace the knob by fitting the molded rib inside the knob into the clear groove on the stem.
