General Cleaning
Cleaning Various Parts of Your Cooktop
Before cleaning any part of the cooktop, be sure all controls are turned OFF and the cooktop is COOL. REMOVE SPILLOVERS AND HEAVY SOILING
AS SOON AS POSSIBLE. REGULAR CLEANING WILL REDUCE THE NUMBER OF MAJOR CLEANING LATER.
How to Clean
For general cleaning, use hot soapy water and a cloth. For more difficult soils and built-up grease,
apply a liquid detergent directly onto the soil. Leave on soil for 30 to 60 minutes. Rinse with a damp
cloth and dry. DO NOT use abrasive cleaners on any of these materials; they can scratch or dull the
finish. Commercial glass cleaners recommended for glass cooktops may also be used.
Wipe the control panel clean after each use. Before cleaning the control panel, turn all controls to
OFF and remove the control knobs. To remove, pull each knob straight off the shaft. Clean using hot,
soapy water and a cloth. Be sure to squeeze excess water from the cloth before wiping the panel;
especially when wiping around the controls. Excess water in or around the controls may cause damage
to the appliance. To replace knobs after cleaning, line up the flat sides of both the knob and the shaft;
then push the knob into place.
Cover stubborn spots with an ammonia-soaked paper towel for 30-40 minutes. Rinse with clean
water and a cloth. Cleaners made especially for stainless steel, chrome or copper are also
recommended. Rinse all cleaners before operating cooktop. Bluish stains may result due to heat
combining with the cleaning material and they cannot be removed.
