Oven Heating Elements
Do not clean the bake element or the broil element.
Any soil will burn off when the elements are heated.
The bake element can be lifted gently to clean the
oven floor. If spillovers, residue or ash accumulate
around the bake element gently wipe around the
element with warm water.

CARE AND CLEANING
BE SURE ELECTRICAL POWER IS OFF
AND ALL SURFACES ARE COOL BEFORE
CLEANING ANY PART OF THE RANGE.
Proper care and cleaning are important so your radiant
cooktop will give you efficient and satisfactory
service. If soil, mineral deposits from evaporated
water spills or metal rub-off from aluminum
cookware is not removed, it will burn on the glass
cooktop surface and cause permanent discoloration.
Follow these directions carefully in caring for your
cooktop to assure safe and proper maintenance.
Be sure that the surface unit control knobs are
turned off and that the entire cooktop is cool
before cleaning. Do not use a cooktop cleaner on a
hot cooktop. The fumes can be hazardous to your
health and can chemically attack the glass surface.
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 cleansers
on the control panel—they will damage the finish.
A 50/50 solution of vinegar and hot water solution
works well.
The control knobs may be removed for easier
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 placement.
The knob stem has a groove in each side. The groove
on one side has a spring clip. The other groove is
clear (see illustration). Check the inside of the knob
and find the molded rib.
Wash the knobs in soap and water or a vinegar and
hot water solution but do not soak.
Replace the knob by fitting the molded rib inside the
knob into the clear groove on the stem.
Oven Shelves
Clean the shelves with a mild abrasive cleanser or
steel wool. After cleaning, rinse the shelves with
clean water and dry with a clean cloth.
NOTE: The oven shelves may also be cleaned in
the self-cleaning oven. However, the shelves will
darken, lose their luster and become hard to slide.
Wipe the shelf supports with cooking oil after self-
cleaning to make the shelves slide more easily.
