Care and Cleaning
Gas Cooktop
General
information
Proper care and cleaning are important
so your cooktop will give you efficient and
satisfactory service. Follow these directions
carefully in caring for it.
Some cooktop models are provided
with cleaners. Follow the instructions
on the containers.
Before cleaning any part of your cooktop,
be sure all burners are off and cool.
DISCONNECT ELECTRICAL 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.
Control
knobs
The control knobs may be removed for easier cleaning.
Make sure the knobs are in the OFF positions and
pull them straight off the stems for cleaning. The
knobs can be cleaned in a dishwasher or they may
also be washed with soap and water. Make sure the
insides of the knobs are dry before replacing.
Replace the knobs in the OFF position
to ensure proper placement.
Sealed burner
assemblies
Turn all controls OFF before removing the
burner parts.
The burner grates, caps and burner heads can be
lifted off, making them easy to clean.
CAUTION: Do not operate the
burner without all burner parts in place.

Electrode
The electrode of the spark ignitor is behind
each burner. When one burner is turned to
LITE, all the burners spark. Do not attempt to
disassemble or clean around any burner while
another burner is on. An electric shock may
result, which could cause you to knock over hot
cookware.
How to
remove
protective
shipping
film and
packaging
tape
Carefully grasp a corner of the protective
shipping film with your fingers and slowly peel
it from the appliance surface. Do not use any
sharp items to remove the film. Remove all of
the film before using the appliance for the
first time.
To assure no damage is done to the finish
of the product, the safest way to remove
the adhesive from packaging tape on new
appliances is an application of a household
liquid dishwashing detergent. Apply with a
soft cloth and allow to soak.
NOTE: The adhesive must be removed from all parts
before using the cooktop. It cannot be removed if it is
baked on.
