Operating Instructions Safety Instructions Installation Instructions Care and cleaning of the range. Stainless Steel Surfaces (on some models) Protecting STAINLESS STEEL has a reputation for withstanding tough abuse for years. This is a key reason why it is so popular with the food service industry. However, stainless steel appliances can have surface imperfections, discolorations or blemishes that consumers with a critical eye notice and find unattractive in the home. These discolorations or blemishes can be caused by something as simple as leaving fingerprint smudges on the stainless steel surface overnight. For stainless steel appliances where blemishes are prone to show on the surface, we recommend APPLYING A COAT OF CERAMA BRYTE® Stainless Steel Cleaning Polish & Conditioner (purchased separately-follow instructions). This will help you to maintain the brightness and appearance of your stainless steel appliance. Cleaning Do not use a steel wool pad; it will scratch the surface. s In order to avoid any discolorations and/or grease stains, we recommend cleaning and removing any spills, spots and grease from the range after use. s It is important to use a soft cloth or paper towel every time the range is cleaned to avoid any scratches. Read carefully the instructions on the back of the Brightener (included with your range) for better results. Apply Cerama Bryte® Stainless Steel Brightener (follow instructions). Repeat steps 2-4 as many times as needed. Put grates back in place. Follow these instructions for any Stainless Steel surface on your range.
