CARE AND CLEANING
(continued)
Control Panel and Knobs
It’s a good idea to wipe the control panel after each
use. Clean with mild soap and water or vinegar and
water, rinse with clean water and polish dry with a
soft cloth.
Do not use abrasive cleansers, strong liquid cleansers,
plastic scouring pads or oven cleaners. A 50/50
solution of vinegar and hot water works well.
The control knobs may be removed for cleaning.
Before removing the knobs for cleaning, please note
that the knobs on the left side and the knobs on the
right side are in the proper OFF position. When
replacing the knobs, check the OFF position to insure
proper alignment.
To remove a knob, pull it straight off the stem. If the
knob is difficult to remove, place a thin cloth (like a
handkerchief) or a piece of string under and around
the knob edge and pull up.
Wash the knobs in soap and water but do not soak.
To replace the knob, locate the groove in each side
of the knob stem. Locate the molded rib inside the
knob. Fit the molded rib of the knob into the clear
groove on the knob stem.
Oven Light Bulb
NOTE: The lens should be removed only when cold.
Wearing latex gloves may offer a better grip.
The light bulb is located on the rear wall of the oven.
Before replacing the bulb, disconnect electrical power
to the range at the main fuse or circuit breaker panel or
unplug the range from the electrical outlet. Let the bulb
cool completely before removing it. Do not touch a hot
bulb with a damp cloth. If you do, the bulb will break.
To remove:
• Unscrew the cover and remove the bulb.
To replace:
• Put in a new 40-watt appliance bulb. A 40-watt
appliance bulb is smaller than a standard 40-watt
household bulb.
• Replace and tighten the cover.
• Reconnect electrical power to the range.
