38 Care and Cleaning CLEANING KNOBS AND KNOB BEZELS The control knobs provided with this cooktop are designed for ease of use and longevity. The "D" shaped design of the knob shaft ensures proper orientation when reinstalling the knob and knob bezels. The knobs are made of a composite plastic. These components should be washed regularly in warm, soapy water. Hand dishwashing liquid is excellent for this task. Knobs should be removed by gently pulling them straight out and off of the valve shafts. Use caution to avoid introduction of moisture into the control panel behind the bezels. To replace knobs, align the "D-shaped" opening at the bottom of the knob with the "D-shaped" valve shaft, then carefully press the knob onto the valve. CLEANING BURNER BASES The burner base is permanently attached to the cooktop. The base should be wiped clean using a soft cloth or sponge that has been lightly dampened with warm water and hand dishwashing liquid. Thoroughly clean and dry the igniters to prevent constant sparking of the reignition system. Refer to the Cleaning the Burner Igniters section for cleaning tips. I M P O R TA N T • Turn the knobs to the "OFF" position prior to removing them from the valve stems. • The cooktop should never be operated without the knobs in place. • Do not soak the knobs in water or place them in the dishwasher. • Do not expose the knobs to direct flame, hot utensils, or other sources of heat. • Do not use abrasive or corrosive cleaners or applicators, as these could cause permanent damage.
