Grease Filters
The efficiency of your 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 and then agitate in a hot
detergent solution. Light brushing may
be used to remove imbedded soil.
Rinse, shake and remove moisture
before replacing. Filters may be
cleaned by placing in 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.
Care and cleaning of the cooktop.
Be sure electrical power is off and all surfaces are cool before cleaning any part of the cooktop.
Glass Cooktop
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 with clean water,
and dry with a soft cloth. You can use any
liquid household detergent.
Do not use abrasive materials such as metal pads,
cleansing powder and scouring pads—they may
scratch the surface.
Do not use harsh chemicals such as bleach or
chemical oven cleaners.
CAUTION: 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. Call for a service technician
immediately.
Control Knobs
Clean up spatters with a damp cloth.
Remove heavier soil with warm, soapy
water.
Do not use abrasives of any kind on the
control panel.
The control knobs may be removed for
easier cleaning. To remove a knob, pull it
straight off the stem. Wash the knobs in
soap and water but do not soak.
Sealed Burner Assemblies
Turn all controls OFF before removing
the burner parts.
The burner grates, caps and burner
heads can be lifted off, making them
easy to clean.
CAUTION: Do not operate the burner without
all burner parts in place.

Burner Head
The electrode of the spark igniter is exposed when
the burner head is removed. When one burner is
turned to LITE, all the burners spark. Do not attempt to
disassemble or clean around any burner while another
burner is on. An electric shock may result, which could
cause you to knock over hot cookware.
