Care and cleaning of the range.
Painted Surfaces
Painted surfaces include the sides, top
of backguard and the drawer front.
Clean these with soap and water or
a vinegar and water solution.
Do not use commercial oven cleaners,
cleaning powders, steel wool or harsh
abrasives on any painted surface.
Porcelain Enamel Cooktop
The porcelain enamel finish is sturdy but
breakable if misused. This finish is acid-
resistant. However, any acidic foods
spilled (such as fruit juices, tomato or
vinegar) should not be permitted to
remain on the finish.
If acids spill on the cooktop while it is
hot, use a dry paper towel or cloth to
wipe it up right away. When the surface
has cooled, wash with soap and water.
Rinse well.
For other spills such as fat spatterings,
wash with soap and water or cleansing
powders after the surface has cooled.
Rinse well. Polish with a dry cloth.
Oven Vent
The oven is vented through an opening
under the right rear surface unit.
This area could become hot during oven use.
It is normal for steam to come out of the
vent and moisture may collect underneath
when the oven is in use.
The vent is important for proper air
circulation.
Never block this vent.
Oven Shelves
If your oven is equipped with shiny,
silver-colored oven shelves, they should
be removed from the oven before
beginning the self-cleaning cycle.
Clean with an abrasive cleanser or plastic
scrubbing pad. After cleaning, rinse the
shelves with clean water and dry with a
clean cloth.
If your oven is equipped with gray
porcelain-coated oven shelves, they
may be cleaned in the oven during
the self-cleaning cycle.
NOTE: The shiny, silver-colored oven shelves (on
some models) 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.
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.
