CARE AND MAINTENANCE

22

WHEN CLEANING RANGE OR COOKTOP:

Be careful cleaning any part of this appliance while hot. All parts of the appliance can be cleaned
with hot soapy water, rinsed, dried and buffed to a shine with a soft, heavy pile cloth. Always try this
first, as it is the mildest cleaning procedure.

1) Use the mildest cleaning procedure first. Some brands of cleaners of the same type are harsher than

others, read their directions. A scent or a propellant can make a difference in the product, read the
ingredients. Try on a small area first.

2) To avoid marring the surface, always rub metal finishes in the direction of the polish lines (grain). The

cleaner will be more effective when used in the direction of the polish lines.

3) Use only clean sponges, soft cloths, paper towels, plastic non-metal or steel wool soap pads for

cleaning or scouring (use only soap pads with soap still in them, an empty pad can scratch), as
recommended in this section.

4) Be sure to rinse all parts thoroughly and to wipe dry to avoid water marks.

BRAND NAMES

In this section on cleaning, the use of name brands is intended only to indicate a type of cleaner.
This does not constitute an endorsement. The omission of any name brand cleaner does not imply
its adequacy or inadequacy. Many products are regional in distribution and can be found in local
markets and department stores.

COOKTOP

Turn off all the burners and allow the
grates to cool before starting to clean
the cooktop. If you wipe off any part of
the cooktop while it is hot, do so
carefully as using a wet sponge or
cloth can result in steam burns.

BURNER GRATES

When lifting the grates, be careful as
they are heavy.

Place them on a

protected surface so they won’t
scratch the surface they are laid on.
The burner grates are matte porcelain
enamel over cast iron. When cool, they
may be placed in the dishwasher, or
wiped clean while on the cooktop
using hot soapy water, then rinsed and
wiped dry. The burner grates will not
rust as they are matte porcelain
enamel on both sides for durability.
The occasional use of mild abrasive
cleansers such as Bon-Ami®, Soft
Scrub® or a soap-filled steel wool pad
is okay. Abrasive cleansers, used vigorously or too often, can eventually harm the enamel. Apply with
a damp sponge, rinse thoroughly and dry. The porcelain may pop off the edge of the grates due to
rapid temperature change when the burners are turned on. Do not be concerned as this does not
result in the deterioration of the grates. The cast iron soon darkens to blend with the porcelain enamel.
Be careful when wiping an area where the porcelain has popped off, as the edges may be sharp.
