Here’s a step-by-step guide on how to clean a gas stove:

Materials Needed:

2. Baking soda
3. White vinegar
4. Sponge or soft cloth
5. Toothbrush or small brush
6. Microfiber cloth or towel
7. Dish soap
8. Stove cleaner spray (optional)

Step 1: Safety Precautions

1. Turn off the gas supply to the stove to prevent any accidents.
2. Allow the stove to cool completely before starting the cleaning process to avoid burns.

Step 2: Remove Grates and Burner Caps

1. Lift off the grates and burner caps from the stove and set them aside.
2. Wipe away any loose debris or food particles from the surface using a dry cloth or paper towel.

Step 3: Soak Grates and Burner Caps

1. Fill a sink or basin with warm, soapy water.
2. Submerge the grates and burner caps in the soapy water and let them soak for at least 15-20 minutes to loosen any stuck-on grime.

Step 4: Clean the Stovetop Surface

1. Wipe down the stovetop surface with a damp cloth or sponge to remove any surface dirt or spills.
2. For stubborn stains or grease buildup, sprinkle baking soda over the affected areas and scrub gently with a sponge or soft brush.
3. Rinse the stovetop thoroughly with clean water and wipe it dry with a microfiber cloth or towel.

Step 5: Clean Burners

1. Use a toothbrush or small brush to clean the burner heads and ports.
2. If the burner heads are removable, take them off and soak them in warm, soapy water to remove any grease or residue.
3. Rinse the burner heads thoroughly with clean water and allow them to dry completely before reattaching them to the stove.

Step 6: Clean Grates and Burner Caps

1. Scrub the grates and burner caps with a sponge or brush to remove any remaining residue.
2. If necessary, use a stove cleaner spray for tough stains, following the manufacturer’s instructions.
3. Rinse the grates and burner caps with clean water and dry them thoroughly before placing them back on the stove.

Step 7: Polish and Shine

1. Once everything is clean and dry, polish the stovetop surface with a microfiber cloth or towel to remove any streaks or water spots.
2. For added shine, lightly dampen the cloth with white vinegar and wipe down the stovetop surface.

Step 8: Reassemble and Test

1. Place the cleaned grates and burner caps back onto the stove in their respective positions.
2. Turn on the gas supply and test each burner to ensure they ignite properly.
