• Food that boils over can cook onto surface. Use razor blade scraper to remove soil.
For more information, see
page 21.
• Mineral deposits from water and food. Use non-abrasive ceramic cleaner. Buff with a
non-abrasive cloth or sponge.
• Foods with acids, such as tomatoes, if allowed to stand in/on bowls will cause corro-
sion. Remove and wash drip bowls as soon as possible after spillover. Houses along
sea coast are exposed to salt air. Protect bowls as much as possible from direct
exposure to salt air.
• Bottom surface of cookware extends beyond surface elements and touches cooktop
surface. This can cause high enough temperatures to discolor the drip bowls. Do not
use cookware of this type. Pan sizes should be matched to the size of the element.
