How to Clean
Use hot, soapy water and a cloth. Dry with a clean cloth.
For general cleaning, use hot soapy water and a cloth. For more difficult soils and built-up
grease, apply a liquid detergent directly onto the soil. Leave on soil for 30 to 60 minutes.
Rinse with a damp cloth and dry. DO NOT use abrasive cleaners on any of these materials;
they can scratch.
Before cleaning the control panel, turn all controls to OFF and remove the control knobs. To
remove, pull each knob straight off the shaft. Clean using hot, soapy water and a cloth. Be
sure to squeeze excess water from the cloth before wiping the panel; especially when wiping
around the controls. Excess water in or around the controls may cause damage to the
appliance. To replace knobs after cleaning, line up the flat sides of both the knob and the
shaft; then push the knob into place.
Surface elements can be unplugged and removed to make cleaning the drip bowls easier.
The surface elements clean themselves when they are turned on. Food spilled on a hot
element will burn off. Food spilled on a cool element can be cleaned with a damp cloth
any remaining soil will burn off the next time the element is used. NEVER IMMERSE A
SURFACE ELEMENT IN WATER. To remove surface elements and drip bowls, follow the
instructions under General Cleaning.
To clean drip bowls, wash in hot, soapy water or in the dishwasher. Rinse and dry while still
warm. Hard-to-remove, burned-on soils can be removed by soaking the drip bowls for about
20 minutes in a slightly diluted liquid cleanser or a solution made of equal parts ammonia
and water. A nylon scrubber may be used after soaking. DO NOT use abrasive cleansers or
steel wool, as they will scratch the surface. Always rinse with clean water and polish, and
dry with a soft cloth. To replace drip bowls and surface elements, follow the instructions
under General Cleaning.
Gentle scouring with a soapy scouring pad will remove most spots. Rinse with a 1:1 solution
of clear water and ammonia. If necessary, cover difficult spots with an ammonia-soaked
paper towel for 30 to 40 minutes. Rinse with clean water and a damp cloth, and then scrub
with a soap-filled scouring pad. Rinse and wipe dry with a clean cloth. Remove all cleaners
or the porcelain may become damaged during future heating. DO NOT use spray oven
cleaners on the rangetop.
Clean with hot, soapy water and a dishcloth. Rinse with clean water and a cloth. Cover
stubborn spots with an ammonia-soaked paper towel for 30 to 40 minutes. Rinse. Cleaners
made especially for stainless steel are suggested. Always follow the manufacturer's
instructions. Be sure to rinse the cleaners as bluish stains may occur during heating and
cannot be removed.
Clean with hot, soapy water and a dishcloth. Rinse with clean water and a cloth. Cover
stubborn spots with an ammonia-soaked paper towel for 30 to 40 minutes. Rinse.
Remove racks. See "Arranging Oven Racks" under Before Setting Oven Controls. Use
a mild, abrasive cleaner, following manufacturer's instructions. Rinse with clean water and
dry. After cleaning the racks, rub the sides of the racks with wax paper or a cloth containing
a small amount of baby oil or salad oil. This will make the racks glide more easily into the
rack positions.
The larger oven door may be removed to facilitate cleaning. To clean oven door, wash with
hot, soapy water and a clean cloth. DO NOT immerse the door in water. See "To Remove
and Replace Oven Door" on page 12. The smaller door cannot be removed, but can be
cleaned using the same procedure for cleaning the larger oven.
Cleaning Various Parts of Your Range
Before cleaning any part of the range, be sure all controls are turned OFF and the range
is COOL. REMOVE SPILLOVERS AND HEAVY SOILING AS SOON AS POSSIBLE.
REGULAR CLEANING WILL REDUCE THE NUMBER OF MAJOR CLEANINGS LATER.
