CARE AND CLEANING PORCELAIN-COATED GRATES AND CAPS 2. Pour water on soiled area. Use scrub and cleanser. Clean with a nonabrasive nylon scrub pad and mildly abrasive cleanser. Know Your Grates and Caps ■■ Food spills containing acids, such as vinegar and tomato, should be cleaned as soon as the cooktop, grates, and caps are cool. These spills may affect the finish. ■■ To avoid chipping, do not bang grates and caps against each other or hard surfaces such as cast iron cookware. ■■ Do not reassemble caps on burners while wet. ■■ Do not clean in the Self-Cleaning cycle. ■■ Grates and caps are dishwasher safe. GRIDDLE Tips: ■■ Prior to cleaning the griddle, make sure that all cooktop burners and oven controls have been turned off. ■■ For best results, clean the griddle shortly after removing the food. Do Not Use: ■■ Soap ■■ Abrasive materials ■■ Cleaning materials, including stainless steel cleaner After Each Use: 1. Turn knob to 300°F (149°C) to preheat. Using a measuring cup, pour up to 1 cup (236.6 mL) tap water over the soiled area. Start at the back, allowing the water to run toward the drip tray in the front. Allow the water to bubble on the griddle for 3-4 seconds. 3. Scrape residue into drip tray. Use a pad holder or wooden spoon with a non-abrasive pad or cloth. Use pressure on soiled areas. Repeat if needed for heavy soils. 4. Remove remaining residue. Fold a damp towel and, with the pad holder or wooden spoon, go over the griddle to remove remaining residue. 5. Turn off griddle and let cool. OFF Wait until preheat is complete before cleaning. 24
