Care and Cleaning
Proper care and cleaning are important for efficient and
satisfactory service.
WARNING: Before cleaning, be sure all burners are
OFF and disconnect electrical power to the cooktop at
the fuse box, circuit breaker panel, or cooktop power
plug, located inside the cabinets beneath the cooktop.
Cleaning Glass Cooktop
WARNING: Do not cook on, or clean, a broken or
cracked cooktop. Cleaning solutions and spillovers
penetrating the cooktop can create a risk of electric
shock.
Caution: Do not use abrasive materials such as metal
pads, cleansing powder,or scouring pads—they may
scratch the surface. Do not use harsh chemicals such as
bleach or chemical oven cleaners.
To keep the cooktop looking its best, wipe up any spills
as they occur. This will keep them from burning on and
becoming more difficult to remove. As soon as the
cooktop is cool, wash the glass surface with a cloth
moistened with warm, soapy water. Rinse the surface
with clean water, and dry it with a soft cloth. You can use
any liquid household detergent.
Cleaning Grease Filters
The efficiency of the downdraft depends on a clean filter.
Frequency of cleaning depends on the type of cooking
you do. Grease filters should be cleaned at least once a
month. Never operate the downdraft without the filters in
place.
To remove: Lift up and pull the bottom out. Remove the
left filter first, then slide the right filter to the left and
remove it.
To clean: Soak, then agitate in a hot detergent solution.
Light brushing may be used. Rinse, shake, and remove
moisture before replacing. Filters may be cleaned by
placing them in a dishwasher, although some slight color
fading may occur after several washings.
With careful handling, the filter will last for years. If
replacement becomes necessary, order the part from
your dealer.
