Care And Cleaning; Control Knobs; Glass Control Panel - GE JP626 Use And Care Manual

Proper care and cleaning are important so your
cooktop will give you efficient and satisfactory
service. Follow these directions carefully in caring
for it to help assure safe and proper maintenance.

Control Knobs

The control knobs may be removed for cleaning.
Before removing the knobs for cleaning, please note
that the knobs on the left side and the knobs on the
right side are in the proper OFF position. When
replacing the knobs, check the OFF position to insure
proper placement.
The knob has a groove in each side. The groove on
one side has a spring clip. The other groove is clear
(see illustration). When removing the knob, it may be
helpful to slip a thin cloth (such as a handkerchief) or
a piece of string under and around the knob edge and
pull up. Check the inside of the knob and find the
molded rib.
Wash knobs in soap and water or a vinegar and hot
water solution but do not soak.
Replace the knob by fitting the molded rib inside the
knob into the clear groove on the stem.

Glass Control Panel

The glass control panel on your cooktop has been
tempered to withstand sudden temperature changes
during cooking. Give it the normal care you would
give any glass material.
While it is impact-resistant, avoid scratching it to
prevent it from shattering.

If the glass is hot, wipe up spills with a dry cloth or
paper towel. When the surface has cooled, wash, rinse
and dry it. Alternately, when the glass is cool, spray it
with glass or window cleaner. Avoid the use of
cleaning powders or harsh abrasives that may scratch
the surface.
