Care and Cleaning
How to Remove the Storage Drawer or Kick Panel to Clean Under the Range
The area under the range can be reached easily for
cleaning by removing the bottom drawer (on some
models). To remove, pull the drawer out all the way,
tilt up the front and remove it. To replace, insert glides
at the back of the drawer beyond the stop on range
glides. Lift the drawer if necessary to insert easily. Let
the front of the drawer down, then push in to close.
To clean under models with a
front kick panel, remove the
panel by pulling it straight out
at the bottom. To replace the
panel, first hook the top tabs on
and then the bottom tabs.

dish detergent and a soft cloth. Rub the control
panel lightly.

control panel. The lettering on models with touch
pads is sensitive to abrasives and pressure.
