Care and Cleaning
Cooktop Disassembly
CAUTION
• Do not clean the cooktop grates, burner parts or WOK ring
in a dishwasher. They will be damaged.
• Dry and re-assemble the burners and grates completely
before use.
• When the cooktop is cool, remove the grates from the
top of the cooktop.
• Lift the burner caps and burner rings off of the burn-
ers. Remove the burner head from the crown burner.
Cleaning the Grates, Spill Trays and WOK Ring
• The grates, spill tray and WOK ring are coated with
a porcelain finish. For everyday cleaning, use a soft
cloth or non-abrasive pad with warm soapy water to
clean all of the porcelain parts.
• If necessary, tough stains may be removed by apply-
ing full strength sprays such as Simple Green, Ajax
All-Purpose Cleaner or Formula 409. To minimize
wear, use the mildest cleaner needed to get the sur-
face clean.
• For extremely stubborn stains, you may use a mildly
abrasive cleaner or applicator, such as Soft Scrub, Bon
Ami, S.O.S. pads or other soap-filled steel wool pads.
Use these cleaners with extreme care and only
on occasion. Aggressive or extensive use of these
types of abrasives will damage the finish. Finish
damage due to the use of abrasives is not cov-
ered under your warranty.
Cleaning the Burner Components and Igniters
CAUTION
Use care while cleaning the igniters. The porcelain is fragile
and can crack or break.
IMPORTANT: The igniter(s) will not work properly if the
burner cap, burner ring, burner base or the igniter itself
are not clean. Dirty or wet igniters may not spark at all.

1. After disassembling the burners, check for any dirt or
grime deposited on the individual parts, including the
igniters.
2. Use a firm tooth brush to gently clean completely
around the igniter, including all of the metal top and
porcelain base. Do not use water to clean the igniters.
If necessary, use a small amount of rubbing alcohol to
help dissolve grime.
3. Examine the burner rings. Remove anything stuck
in the holes with a straightened paper clip, wire or
needle. Be careful not to scratch or damage the ring
and cap. Do not distort the shape of the burner ring
holes.
4. Clean all the burner parts, including the burner bases,
with window cleaner or rubbing alcohol. Use a clean-
ing brush with plastic bristles or a firm tooth brush.
When done, rinse the parts well with clean water. Dry
all the parts thoroughly before reassembling them.

5. Reassemble the cooktop according to the burner and
grate assembly instructions starting on page 7.
Test the burners after reassembling them. If the flame
is uneven, be sure that the brass burner ring and por-
celain burner cap are properly positioned, then check
for any remaining dirt or grime on the burner parts
or igniter. If erratic clicking is still present, make sure
the igniter is completely dry. If the unit still exhibits
problems after drying, call your local Dacor Authorized
Service Agent.
