Solid Elements
Its, wipe off solid elements with a damp soft
cloth and soapy water after each use. Burned-on food may
be removed with a soapy scouring pad. The red spot in the
center of the solid elements will gradually wash off. This is
normal and will not affect the operation of the surface unit.
2. IMPORTANT: After cleaning, apply a thin coat of salt-free oil to the CCCL solid elements, then
heat 3-5 minutes. It may still smoke slightly when heated. If elements have dark spots caused by
grease and food, the oil treatment will improve their appearance but not eliminate the spots.
NOTE: Optional Electrol dressing can be applied to the elements to improve their
appearance.
3. The stainless steel trim rings will gradually yellow from the heat of the solid elements and pans.
This is normal. The yellowing can be removed by using stainless steel cleaner or Cook Top
Polishing Creme on the trim rings.
