COOKTOP CARE
General Cleaning
IMPORTANT: Before cleaning, make sure all controls are OFF and the cooktop is cool. Always follow label instructions on
cleaning products.
Soap, water, and a soft cloth or sponge are suggested first, unless otherwise noted. Food spills containing acids, such as
vinegar and tomato, should be cleaned as soon the cooktop is cool. These spills may affect the finish.
Surface Type Cleaning Recommendation
Control Knobs (Metal)
The knobs should be cleaned with soap and water.
Do not clean knobs in the dishwasher or use abrasive cleaners or steel wool.
To remove the knobs, be sure the knobs are in the Off position.
Do not remove the seals under the knobs.
Control Knobs (Plastic)
The knobs should be cleaned with soap and water or in the dishwasher.
To remove the knobs, be sure the knobs are in the Off position.
Do not remove the seals under the knobs.
Burner Grates
Soap and Water: Use a nonabrasive plastic scrubbing pad and mildly abrasive cleanser, soap, and water.
Dishwasher: The grates may be cleaned in the dishwasher. Remove any burnt-on food prior to placing the
grates in the lowest rack in the dishwasher.
To avoid chipping, do not bang grates against each other or hard surfaces, such as cast iron cookware.
Although the grates are durable, they will gradually lose their shine due to exposure to high temperatures.
Burner Caps
Use a nonabrasive plastic scrubbing pad and mildly abrasive cleanser, soap, and water.
Do not place caps in the dishwasher or reassemble caps on burners when wet.
Burner Base
The holes in the burner bases must be kept clean for proper ignition and a complete, even flame. Refer to
the “Cleaning the Burner: Tips” section.
