CONTROL PANEL AND OVEN DOOR EXTERIOR
To avoid damage to the control panel, do not use abrasive
cleaners, steel-wool pads, gritty washcloths or abrasive paper
towels.
Cleaning Method:
Glass cleaner and soft cloth or sponge:
Apply glass cleaner to soft cloth or sponge, not directly on
panel.
All-Purpose Appliance Cleaner Part Number 31682 (not
included):
See cover for contact information.
COIL ELEMENTS (on some models)
Cleaning Method:
Damp cloth: Make sure control knobs are off and elements are
cool.
Do not clean or immerse in water. Soil will burn off when hot.
BURNER BOWLS (on some models)
Before removing or replacing coil elements and burner bowls,
make sure they are cool and the control knobs are in the OFF
position.
Remove the coil element by pushing the edge of the coil element
toward the receptacle. Lift it enough to clear the burner bowl. Pull
the coil element straight away from the receptacle to remove. Lift
out the burner bowl.
Cleaning Method:
Chrome burner bowls
Wash frequently in warm, soapy water. (It is not recommended to
wash chrome bowls in a dishwasher.) A mild abrasive cleaner and a
plastic scrubber can be used to remove stubborn stains.
For heavily soiled bowls, place an ammonia soaked paper towel on
the stains and allow to soak for a short time, then gently scrub with
a plastic scrubber.
SURFACE UNDER COOKTOP (on some models)
The coil cooktop will lift up to provide easy access for cleaning
beneath. Lift the cooktop by both front corners until the support
locks into place.
Cleaning Method:
Steel-wool pad
To avoid damage to the range, do not remove the cooktop.
OVEN RACKS
Cleaning Method:
Steel-wool pad
For racks that have discolored and are harder to slide, a light
coating of vegetable oil applied to the rack guides will help
them slide.
STORAGE DRAWER
Check that storage drawer is cool and empty before cleaning.
Cleaning Method:
Mild detergent
OVEN CAVITY
Food spills should be cleaned when oven cools. At high
temperatures, foods react with porcelain and staining, etching,
