Care and Cleaning
Stainless Steel Range
Grille
(_m some models)
Clean the grille immediately- after cooking.
Turn off the burner. To protect your hand fi'om
steam and heat, wear a barbecue mitt. Scrub the
grille by dipping a brass bristle barbecue brush
fi'equently into a bowl of water.
The steam created softens the food particles
and assists the cleaning process. The food
particles will drop into the drip tray or into the
radiant tray-holding dae ceramic briquettes. Be
sure to clean the drain tube, drip tray and liner
after they have cooled.
Back panel
and shelf
The back panel and shelf are made of stainless
steel.
Do not use a steel wool pad; it will scratch the
surface.
Clean with hot soapy water. Rinse and dry.
If the panel and shelf have food soil remaining,
uy a general kitchen cleaner, such as
Fantastik_, _ Simple Green _ or Formula 4092 _
For hard to clean soil use a standard stainless
steel cleaner such as Bon-Ami, _'Cameo _' or Bar
Keepers FriendP Apply- cleaner with a damp
sponge, rinse daoroughly and dlT. Always scrub
lightly in the direction of the grain.
After cleaning, use a stainless steel polish such
as Stainless Steel Magic?
12" oven
porcelain
interim
(48" ranges only)
With proper care, the porcelain enamel finish
on flae inside of the oven--top, bottom, sides,
back and inside of the door--will stay new-
looking for years.
Let the range cool before cleaning. We
recommend daat you wear rubber gloves when
cleaning the range.
Soap and water will normally do the job. Heavy
spattering or spillovers may-require cleaning
with a mild abrasive cleaner. Soapy, wet metal
pads may also be used. Do not allow food spills
with a high sugar or acid content (such as milk,
tomatoes, sauerkraut, fruit juices or pie filling)
to remain on dae surface. They may- cause a
dull spot even after cleaning.
Household ammonia may make the cleaning
job easier. Place 1/2 cup in a shallow glass or
potlel T container in a cold oven overuight.
The ammonia fumes will help loosen the
burued-on grease and food.
If necessary, you may use an oven cleaner.
Follow the package directions.
Cautions about using spray-on oven cleaners:
Do not spray on the electrical consols and
switches because it could cause a short circuit
and result in sparking or fire.
•Do not allow a film fi'om the cleaner I{) build
up on the temperature sensor--it could cause
the oven to heat improperly. (The sensor is
located at dae top of dae oven.) Carefully- wipe
the sensor clean after each oven cleaning,
being careful not to move the sensor as a
change in its position could affect how the
oven bakes.
•Do not spray any oven cleaner on the oven
door, handles or any exterior surface of the
oven, cabineks or painted surfaces.
The cleaner can damage these surfaces.
