Cleaning and Maintenance Cooktop Daily Cleaning The entire Cooktop can be safely cleaned by wiping with a soapy sponge, then rinsing and drying. If stubborn soil remains, follow the recommended cleaning methods below. • Always use the mildest cleaner that will do the job. Use clean, soft cloths, sponges or paper towels. • Rub stainless steel finishes in the direction of the grain. Wipe area dry to avoid water marks. • Before cleaning, be certain the burners are turned off and the grates and burners are cool. • Do not clean removable cooktop parts in any selfcleaning oven. • After cleaning, place all parts in their proper positions before using cooktop. • For proper burner performance, keep igniters clean and dry. • Keep the ignitor ports clean for proper lighting performance of the burners. It is necessary to clean these when there is a boilover or when the burner does not light even though the electronic ignitors click. • Do not use flammable cleansers such as lighter fluid or WD-40. 9 CAUTION All igniters spark when any single burner is turned on. Do not touch any of the burners when the cooktop is in use.
