Solid elements
Solld elements are not removable.
After
each use, wipe off the elements with a damp,
soft cloth and soapy water. Burned-on food
may be removed with a soapy scouring pad.
The red spot in the center of the elements
will gradually wash off. This is normal and
will not affect the operation of the elements.
IMPORTANT: AFTER EACH CLEANING, HEAT ELEMENTS UNTIL DRY.
To darken elements or to remove rust spots caused by improper drying, apply a thin
coat of salt-free oil to the CCCL elements, then heat for 3-5 minutes. If elements have
dark spots, the oil treatment will improve their appearance but will not eliminate
the spots.
The stainless steel spillrings will gradually yellow from the heat of the elements
and pans. This is normal. The yellowing can be removed by using stainless steel
cleaner on the spillrings.
