Oven Light Bulbs (on some models)
NOTE: The glass cover should be
removed only when cold. Wearing latex
gloves may offer a better grip.
CAUTION: Before replacing your
oven light bulb, disconnect the electrical
power to the oven at the main fuse or
circuit breaker panel.
Be sure to let the light cover and bulb
cool completely.
For your safety, do not touch a hot bulb
with bare hands or a damp cloth.
To remove:
Turn the glass cover
counterclockwise 1/4 turn until the
tabs of the glass cover clear the
grooves of the socket.
Using gloves or a dry cloth, remove
the bulb by pulling it straight out.
To replace:
Use a new 130-volt halogen bulb,
not to exceed 50 watts.
Using gloves or a dry cloth, remove
the bulb from its packaging. Do not
touch the bulb with bare fingers.
Push the bulb straight into the
receptacle all the way.
Place the tabs of the glass cover into
the grooves of the socket. Turn the
glass cover clockwise 1/4 turn to
engage.
For improved lighting inside
the oven, clean the glass cover
frequently using a wet cloth. This
should be done when the oven is
completely cool.
Reconnect electrical power to
the oven.

Burner Grates and Vent Grille
Porcelain enamel burner grates and the
vent grille should be washed regularly
and, of course, after spillovers.
Wash them in hot, soapy water and
rinse with clean water. You may also use
abrasive cleaners and scouring pads to
clean burner grates and the vent grille.
Dry the grates and grille with a cloth—
don’t put them back on the cooktop wet.
To get rid of burned-on food, place the
grates and grille in a covered container.
Add 1/4 cup ammonia and let them soak
several hours or overnight. Wash, rinse
well and dry.
Although they’re durable, the grates
and grille will gradually lose their shine,
regardless of the best care you can give
them. This is due to their continual
exposure to high temperatures.
Do not operate a burner for an extended
period of time without cookware on the
grate. The finish on the grate may chip
without cookware to absorb the heat.
After cleaning, replace the center grille
first. Replace the side grates so that the
notches lock over the tabs on the center
grate. Make sure the grates are positioned
securely over the burners and that they
are stable and level.
Rubber Grate Feet
For stability, your cooktop has rubber
feet on the burner grates. If any of these
rubber feet should become damaged or
lost, replace them immediately.
