	PART	HOW TO CLEAN

	Control knobs	1. Turn the knobs off and pull them straight away from the control panel.
		2. Wash the knobs with a sponge and warm, soapy water. Rinse and dry them
		well. Do not soak them. Do not use steel wool or gritty cleansers, which can
		damage the finish of the knobs.
		3. Replace the knobs. Make sure all knobs are turned off.

	Control panel	•Wash the panel with a sponge and warm, soapy water. Wipe the panel with
		clean water and dry it well. Do not use steel wool or gritty cleansers, which
		can damage the finish.
		OR
		•Wash the panel with a paper towel and spray glass cleaner. Do not spray the
		cleaner directly on the panel. Apply the cleaner to the paper towel.
	Exterior surfaces	• Remove the grates.
	(other than control	• Wash the surface with a sponge and warm, soapy water or paper towel and

		finish.

		NOTE: Do not let foods containing acids (such as vinegar, tomato, or lemon juice)
		remain on the surface. Acids may remove the glossy finish. Also, wipe up milk or
		egg spills when the cooktop is cool. Be careful when cleaning around the model
