Cleaning and Maintenance
Any piece of equipment works better and lasts longer when maintained
properly and kept clean. Cooking equipment is no exception. Your
rangetop must be kept clean and maintained properly.
Make sure all burners are "off" before cleaning. Disconnect power if
you are going to clean thoroughly with water.
Open Surface Burners (If applicable)
Wipe up spill-overs as soon as possible after they occur and before
they get a chance to burn in and cook solid. In the event ofaspill-
over, follow these steps:
1. Allow the burner and grate to cool to a safe temperature level.
2. Lift off the burner grates.
3. If the spill is contained in the bowl of the grate support, just remove
the bowl and clean in warm soapy water.
4. Lift the grate support off.
5. Wash these parts in hot, soapy water and rinse clean.
6. If the spill has gone lower than the grate supports, draw out the
drip pan and wash with hot, soapy water.
If ports on the burners are clogged, clean with a straight pin. Do not
enlarge or disort the ports. Do not use a toothpick to clean the ports.
Make sure burner cap is level. Occasionally check the burner for
proper size and shape. If flames lift off ports, are yellow, or are noisy
when turned on, you may need to clean the burners or call a qualified
technician for adjustments.

Sealed Burner Aluminum Base (If applicable)
The aluminum base should be wiped regularly with hot soapy water at
the end of each cooling period. Do not use steel wool, abrasive cloths,
cleanser, or powders. To removeencrusted materials, soak the area
with at hot towel to loosen the material, then use a wooden or nylon
spatula. Do not use a metal knife, spatula, or any other material tool to
scrape the aluminum base.

Ami TM and a soft brush or soft Scoth BriteTM pad.
Burner Caps
The surface burner caps should be routinely removed and cleaned.
Always clean the burner caps after a spill over. Keeping the burner
caps clean will prevent improper ignition and uneven flames. To clean,
pull burner cap straight up from the burner base. Wipe off surface
burner caps with warm, soapy water and a soft cloth after each use.
Use a a non-abrasive cleanser such as Ben Ami TM and a soft brush or
soft Scotch BriteTM pad for cooked-on foods. Dry thoroughly after
cleaning. For best cleaning and to avoid possible rusting, do not clean
in dishwasher or self-cleaning oven. When replacing burner caps,
carefully align the tabs underneath the cap with the outside edge of
burner. Make sure burner cap is level.
