Care and cleaning of the cooktop.
Be sure electrical power is off and all surfaces are cool before cleaning any part of the cooktop.
Proper care and cleaning are important so your cooktop will give you efficient and satisfactory service. Follow these
directions carefully in caring for your cooktop to assure safe and proper maintenance.
Porcelain Enamel Cooktop (on some models)
The porcelain enamel finish is sturdy but
breakable if misused.
This finish is acid-resistant. However, any
acid foods spilled (such as fruit juices,
tomato or vinegar) should not be
permitted to remain on the finish.
If acids spill on the cooktop while it is
hot, use a dry paper towel or cloth to
wipe it up right away. When the surface
has cooled, wash with soap and water.
Rinse well.
For other spills such as fat spatterings,
wash with soap and water or cleansing
powders after the surface has cooled.
Rinse well. Polish with a dry cloth.
Stainless Steel Cooktop (on some models)
Do not use a steel wool pad; it will scratch
the surface.
To clean the stainless steel surface,
use warm sudsy water or a stainless steel
cleaner or polish. Always wipe the surface
in the direction of the grain. Follow the
cleaner instructions for cleaning the
stainless steel surface.

The control knobs may be removed for easier
cleaning.
Make sure the knobs are in the OFF
positions and pull them straight off the
stems for cleaning.
The knobs can be cleaned in a
dishwasher or they may also be washed
with soap and water. Make sure the inside
of the knobs are dry before replacing.
Replace the knobs in the OFF position
to ensure proper placement.
