Control Knobs
The control knobs may be removed for cleaning.
To remove knob,
pull it straight off the
stem. If knob is difficult to remove, place
a thin cloth (like a handkerchief) or a
piece of string under and around the
knob edge and pull up.
Wash knobs in soap and water but do not
soak. Avoid getting water down into the
knob stem holes.
To replace knob,
locate the groove in each
side of the knob stem. One of the grooves
contains a spring clip and the other
groove is clear. Locate the molded rib
inside the knob. Fit the molded rib into
the clear groove on the knob stem.
Burner Grates
Burner grates should be washed regularly and, of
course, after spillovers. Wash them in hot, soapy
water and rinse with clean water. Dry the grates
with a cloth— don’t put them back on the
cooktop wet. When replacing the grates, be sure
they’re positioned securely over the burners.
To get rid of burned-on food, place the
grates in a covered container or plastic
bag. Add 1/4 cup ammonia and let
them soak for 30 minutes. Wash, rinse
well, and dry.
Although they’re 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.
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.
Drip Pans
Drip pans can permanently discolor if
exposed to excessively high heat or if soil
is allowed to bake on.
Remove the grates. Then lift out the drip
pans.
To remove brown food stains, soak them
for about 20 minutes in slightly diluted
liquid cleanser or a mild solution of
ammonia and water (1/2 cup of
ammonia to one gallon of water). Rinse
with clean water.
Blue/gold heat stains can be lessened
with a metal polish but are usually
permanent. To minimize staining, avoid
excessive use of high heat setting and use
flat bottom pans that do not extend more
than two inches from the surface burner.
The drip pans may also be cleaned in the
dishwasher.
When replacing drip pans, the notch on
the rear pan and the notch on the front
pan should meet in the middle.
