Vent Filter and Chamber

Remove the vent grille and vent grille gasket.

The filter is held in place at an angle with a

hold bump. Lift the filter up and out of the

vent opening diagonally.
To clean the filter,

swish it in hot, soapy

water. Rinse well with clean water and dry

thoroughly.

Do not operate the vent without the filter

in place.

To clean the vent chamber,

use hot, soapy

water. Rinse with clean water and dry

thoroughly. Do not use abrasive cleaners; they

will damage the finish.
Replacement
Replace the filter after it is cleaned and dry.

Replace the vent grille gasket by forming it

around the vent opening and make sure the

word “FRONT” is toward the knobs. Replace the

grille.

Care and cleaning of the cooktop.

Burner Grates, Vent Grille and Gasket

Lift off when cool. Grates, grille and gasket

should be washed regularly and, of course,

after spillovers.
To clean,

wash them in hot, soapy water and

rinse with clean water.
Discoloration on the grates may also be

removed by using the provided cooktop

cleaning cream. Apply a drop or two on a damp

cloth and rub across the discolored area. Rinse

and dry. After cleaning, replace the burner

grates and make sure they are positioned

securely over the burners.
To remove burned-on food, use a soap-filled

scouring pad.
Although they are durable, the grates will

gradually lose their shine, regardless of the

best care you can give them. This is due to their

continual exposure to high temperatures. You

will notice this sooner with lighter color grates.
Do not operate a burner for an extended

period of time without cookware on the burner

grate. The finish on the grate may chip without

cookware to absorb the heat.

Replacement
Before replacing the vent grille, make sure

the grille gasket is properly installed around

the downdraft vent opening, with the word

“FRONT” toward the knobs. Replace the vent

grille carefully over the gasket.
When replacing the grates, make sure the

curved sides of the grates are toward the

center.

NOTE: Do not clean the grates, grille or grille

gasket in a self-cleaning oven.
The grates, grille and grille gasket may be

cleaned in a dishwasher.

Appearance may vary.
