Cleaning Exterior Surfaces
• Clean periodically with hot soapy water and clean cotton cloth. DO NOT use corrosive or abrasive detergent (e.g. Comet
Power Scrub®, EZ-Off® oven cleaner), or steel wool/scoring pads, which will scratch and damage the stainless steel
surface. For heavier soil use liquid degrease such as “Formula 409®” or “Fantastic®” brand cleaner.
• If backsplash looks splotchy (stainless steel hood), use a stainless steel cleaner to clean the surface of the backsplash.
Follow directions of the stainless steel cleaner.
Use a soft towel to wipe off the cleaning solution, gently rub off any stubborn spots. Use a dry soft towel to dry the
backsplash.
• After cleaning, you may use nonabrasive stainless steel polish such as 3M® or ZEP®, to polish and buff out the
stainless luster and grain. Always scrub lightly, with clean cotton cloth, and with the grain.
• DO NOT allow deposits to accumulate or remain on the backsplash.
• DO NOT use ordinary steel wool or steel brushes. Small bits of steel may adhere to the surface and cause rusting.
• DO NOT allow salt solutions, disinfectants, bleaches, or cleaning compounds to remain in contact with stainless steel
for extended periods. Many of these compounds contain chemicals, which may be harmful.
• Rinse with water after exposure to these compounds and wipe dry with a clean cloth.
CAUTION: DO NOT leave on too long as this may cause damage to the backsplash finish.
