Care and Cleaning
Component Cooktop System
23
Proper care and cleaning are important so
your Component Cooktop System will give you
efficient and satisfactory service. Follow these
directions carefully to help assure safe and
proper maintenance.
BE SURE ELECTRICAL POWER IS OFF
BEFORE CLEANING ANY COMPONENTS.
Care of the
components
Some of the components must be cured or
preconditioned before using them for the
first time.
Components and accessories should be
cleaned after each use. The longer a soil
remains, the harder it is to clean. See each
component’s section in this guide for specific
instructions.
Brushed
stainless
steel finish
Wash with soap and water. For heavy soils, first
cover with a damp cloth and let soak 30
minutes. A stainless steel cleaner may be used.
To remove fingerprints, apply a little baby oil
or cooking oil with a cloth or paper towel. Rub
in the same direction as the brush marks in the
stainless steel finish.
Stubborn baked-on food residue or stains on
the stainless steel surfaces can be removed by
using pad-type oven cleaners. For your safety,
use extreme caution. Oven cleaners are caustic
and can damage or discolor most other surfaces.
Do not use spray-type oven cleaners. Overspray
will damage nearby surfaces. Use newspaper
and masking tape to cover surfaces such as
back wall, control panel, range sides,
countertop, etc. Remove grates, grill element
or porcelain enamel drip pan.
Control
panel and
knobs
Clean up any spills or spatters with a damp cloth.
Remove heavier soil with warm, soapy water.
Clean the control panel with mild liquid dish
detergent and a soft cloth. Rub the control
panel lightly.
CAUTION: 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.
Do not allow water to run down inside the
surface of the panel while cleaning. After
drying, return the knobs to the cooktop,
making sure to match the flat area on the knob
to the shaft.
