Drip Pans (onsome
models
)
Remove
the grates and
lift out
the
drip
pans.
The
drip pans
can
be
cleaned
in dishwasher
or by hand. To get rid of
burned-on
food,
place
_.
the drip pans in a cov-
ered container
(or plastic
bag) with 1/4 cup (62 ml)
ammonia
to loosen the soil. Then scrub with a soap-
filled scouring
pad if necessary.
Burner Grates
Lift
out
when
cool.
The grates should
be
washed
regularly
and,
of course,
after
spiltovers.
Wash them
in hot, soapy water and rinse with clean water. After
cleaning,
dry them
thoroughly
by putting
them in a
warm
oven for a few minutes.
Don't put the grates
back on the range while
they are wet. When
replac-
ing the grates,
be sure they're
positioned
securely
over the burners.
To prevent
rusting
on cast iron grates,
apply a light
coating of cooking
oil on ti_e bottom of the grates.
To get rid of burned-on
food,
place the grates in a
covered
container
(or
plastic
bag)
with
1/4 cup
(62 ml) ammonia
to loosen the soil. Then scrub with a
soap-filled
scouring
pad if necessary.
Although
they're durable,
the grates wilt gradually
lose
their shine, regardless
of the best care you can give
them. This is due to their continual
exposure
to high
temperatures.
Do not operate
a burner
for an extended
period
of
time without
cookware
on the grate.
The finish on
the grate
may chip without
cookware
to absorb
the
heat.
Lift-up Cooktop (on
models with dual burners)
Clean
the area under
the
cooktop
often.
Built-up soil, especial-
ly grease,
may catch
on fire.
To
make
cleaning
easier,
the
cooktop
may be lifted up.
To raise the cool{top:
1. Be sure the burners
are turned
off.
2. Remove
the grates.
3, Grasp the two front burner wells and lift up.
Some models have dual support rods that will hold the
cooktop
up while you clean underneath
it.
After
cleaning
under
the cooktop
with hot, soapy
water and a clean cloth, lower the cooktop.
Be careful
not to pinch
your
fingers.
Lower
cooktop
gently
to
avoid blowing
out pilot flames
(on models with stand-
ing pilots).
Cooktop
Surface
To avoid
damaging
the porcelain
enamel
surface
of the cooktop
and to prevent
it from
becoming
dull,
clean
up spills right away.
Foods
with a lot of
acid (tomatoes,
sauerkraut,
fruit juices,
etc.) or foods
with
high sugar
content
could
cause
a dull spot if
allowed
to sit.
When
the surface
has cooled,
wash and rinse.
For
other
spills such as fat spatterings,
etc., wash
with
soap
and water once the surface
has cooled.
Then
rinse and polish with a dry cloth,
Be careful
when you clean the cooktop
because
the
area over the pilot will be hot (on models with standing
pilots).
Do not store flammable
materials
in an oven or
near the cooktop.
Do not store or use combustible
materials,
gasoline
or other flammable
vapors and
liquids in the vicinity of this or any other appliance.
