Care and cleaning of the range.
Cooktop Surface
To avoid damaging the porcelain enamel
surface of the cooktop and to prevent it
from becoming dull, clean up spills right
away. Foods with a lot of acid (tomatoes,
sauerkraut, fruit juices, etc.) or foods with
high sugar content could cause a dull spot
if allowed to set.
When the surface has cooled, wash and
rinse. For other spills such as fat spatterings,
etc., wash with soap and water once the
surface has cooled. Then rinse and polish
with a dry cloth.
Do not lift the cooktop. Lifting the cooktop
can lead to damage and improper operation
of the range.
Do not store flammable materials in
an oven or near the cooktop. Do not
store or use combustible materials,
gasoline or other flammable vapors
and liquids in the vicinity of this or any
other appliance.
Burner Grates
Lift out when cool. Grates should be
washed regularly and, of course, after
spillovers. Wash them in hot, soapy water
and rinse with clean water. When replacing
the grates, be sure they are positioned
securely over the burners.
Do not operate a burner for an extended
period of time without cookware on the
grate. The finish on the grate may chip
without cookware to absorb the heat.
To remove burned-on food, use a
soap-filled scouring pad.
Although they are durable, the grates
will gradually lose their shine, regardless
of the best care you can give them. This
is due to their continual exposure to high
temperatures. You will notice this sooner
with lighter color grates.
NOTE: Do not clean the grates in a
self-cleaning oven.
■ After cleaning the grates, dry them
thoroughly by putting them in a warm
oven for a few minutes. Do not put the
grates back on the range while they are
wet. When replacing the grates, make
sure they are positioned securely over
the burners.
■ To prevent rusting on cast-iron grates,
apply a light coating of cooking oil on
the bottom of the grates.
Do not clean the grates in a
dishwasher.
Appearance may vary.

the surface.

or spray cleaner. Always scrub in the
direction of the grain. Rinse thoroughly
with a sponge or cloth and clean water.
