Cleaning the Cooktop
To keep the cooktop looking and operating its best,
clean it after every use. Also, quickly wipe up spills
that occur while cooking. Be careful not to touch any
hot areas. Spills that remain on hot burner parts
will be very difficult to clean, especially if allowed to
burn on. Certain types of food, such as tomatoes,
citrus juices, vinegar, alcohol and milk can damage
the finishes if you allow them to stand for any
length of time.
IMPORTANT: The cooktop is exposed to extremely
IMPORTANT: The cooktop is exposed to extremely
high temperatures. The grates are under high stress
when hot utensils are placed on them. Also, the
cooktop parts are occasionally exposed to acidic
food spill-overs. These severe operating conditions,
cause the porcelain enamel parts on your cooktop
to undergo a change in appearance over time. If
you care for and clean these parts carefully, you will
slow down, but not eliminate, the aging process.
