CARE AND CLEANING
Proper care and cleaning are important so your oven
will give you efficient and satisfactory service. Follow
these directions carefully in caring for your oven to
assure safe and proper maintenance.
BE SURE ELECTRICAL POWER IS OFF AND
ALL SURFACES ARE COOL BEFORE
CLEANING ANY PART OF THE OVEN.
Broiler Pan and Grid
After broiling, remove the broiler pan and grid from
the oven. Remove the grid from the pan. Carefully
pour the grease from the pan into a proper container.
Wash and rinse the broiler pan and grid in hot water
with a soap-filled or plastic scouring pad.
If food has burned on, sprinkle the grid with
detergent while hot and cover with wet paper
towels or a dishcloth. Soaking the pan will remove
burned-on foods.
Both the broiler pan and grid may be cleaned with a
commercial oven cleaner.
Do not store a soiled pan and grid anywhere in
the oven.
Both the broiler pan and grid can also be cleaned in
the dishwasher.
Do not clean the broiler pan or grid in the self-
cleaning oven.
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.

Oven Light Replacement
CAUTION: Before replacing your oven light bulb,
disconnect the electrical power for your oven at
the main fuse or circuit breaker panel.
Be sure to let the light cover and bulb cool completely
before removing or replacing them. When in use, light
bulbs can become warm enough to break if touched
with a moist cloth or towel. When cleaning, avoid
touching warm lights with cleaning cloths if the light
cover is removed.
The oven light is covered
with a removable glass
cover which is held in
place with a wire.
Remove the oven door, if
desired, to reach the
cover easily.
To remove:
• Hold your hand under the cover so it doesn’t fall
when released. With fingers of the same hand, firmly
push back the wire cover holder. Lift off the cover.
DO NOT REMOVE ANY SCREWS.
• Replace bulb with 40-watt home appliance bulb.
To replace cover:
• Place it into the groove of the light receptacle. Pull
the wire forward to the center of cover until it snaps
in place. When in place, the wire holds the cover
firmly. Be certain the wire is in the depression in the
center of the cover.
• Connect the electrical power to the oven.
