EXTERIOR PORCELAIN ENAMEL SURFACES

(on some models)

Food spills containing acids, such as vinegar and tomato, should be cleaned as soon as the entire appliance is cool. These spills may affect the finish.

■Glass cleaner, mild liquid cleaner or non-abrasive scrubbing pad: Gently clean around the model and serial number plate because scrubbing may remove numbers.

Do not use soap-filled scouring pads, abrasive cleaners, Cooktop Polishing Creme, steel-wool pads, gritty wash cloths or some paper towels. Damage may occur.

Rub in direction of grain to avoid damaging.
