Care and cleaning of the range.
Oven Heating Elements
Do not clean the bake element or the broil
element. Any soil will burn off when the
elements are heated.
To clean the oven floor, gently lift
the bake element. Clean with warm
soapy water.
Oven Shelves
Clean the oven shelves with an abrasive
cleanser or steel wool. After cleaning,
rinse the shelves with clean water and
dry with a clean cloth.
To make the shelves slide more easily,
apply a small amount of vegetable oil to
a paper towel and wipe the edges of the
oven shelves with the paper towel. Do not
spray with Pam
®
or other lubricant sprays.
Broiler Pan & Grid
Do not clean the broiler pan or grid in a self-
cleaning oven.
After broiling, remove the broiler pan
from the oven. Remove the grid from the
pan. Carefully pour out the grease from
the pan into a proper container.
Wash and rinse the broiler pan and grid
in hot water with a soap-filled or plastic
scouring pad.
If food has burned on, sprinkle the grid
with detergent while hot and cover with
wet paper towels or a dishcloth. Soaking
the pan will remove burned-on foods.
Both the broiler pan and grid may be
cleaned with a commercial oven cleaner.
Both the broiler pan and grid can also be
cleaned in a dishwasher.
After broiling, remove the broiler pan
from the oven. Do not store a soiled
broiler pan and grid anywhere in
the range.

Oven Light Replacement
CAUTION: Before replacing your oven
light bulb, disconnect the electrical
power to the range at the main fuse or
circuit breaker panel.
Be sure to let the light cover and bulb
cool completely.
To remove the cover:
Hold a hand under the cover so it
doesn’t fall when released. With
fingers of the same hand, firmly
push back the wire cover holder.
Lift off the cover.
Do not remove any screws to remove the cover.
Replace bulb with a 40-watt
appliance bulb.
To replace the cover:

receptacle. Pull wire forward to
the center of the cover until it
snaps into place.

range.

NOTE: We do not recommend leaving the
shelves in the oven during a self-cleaning
cycle. The oven shelves may be cleaned
in the self-cleaning oven. However, the
shelves will darken in color, lose their
luster and become hard to slide if
cleaned during the self-cleaning cycle.
