Care and cleaning of the range.
Oven Air Vents
Never block the vents (air openings) of the
range. They provide the air inlet and outlet
that are necessary for the range to operate
properly with correct combustion.
Air openings are located at the rear of
the cooktop, at the top and bottom of the
oven door, and at the bottom of the range,
under the storage drawer or kick panel
(depending on the model).
Lower Control Panel (Front Manifold Panel) and Knobs
It’s a good idea to wipe the control panel
after each use of the oven. Use a damp
cloth to clean or rinse. For cleaning, use
mild soap and water or a 50/50 solution of
vinegar and water. For rinsing, use clean
water. Polish dry with a soft cloth.
Do not use abrasive cleansers, strong liquid
cleaners, plastic scouring pads or oven
cleaners on the control panel—they will
damage the finish.
Do not bend knobs by pulling them up or
down or by hanging a towel or other such
loads. This can damage the gas valve shaft.
The control knobs may be removed for
easier cleaning. To remove a knob, pull it
straight off the stem. If knob is difficult to
remove, place a towel or dishcloth between
the knob and control panel and pull gently.
Wash the knobs in soap and water or a
vinegar and hot water solution.
Metal parts can be cleaned with soap and
water. Do not use steel wool, abrasives,
ammonia, acids or commercial oven
cleaners. Dry with a soft cloth.
Vent appearance and location vary.
Pull the knob straight off the stem.
