Care and Cleaning
Clean the area under the cooktop often. Built-up soil,
especially grease, may catch on fire.
To make cleaning easier, the cooktop may be lifted up.
To raise the cooktop:
1. Be sure the burners are turned off.
2. Remove the grates.
3. Grasp the two front burner wells and lift up.
Some models have dual
support rods that will hold
the cooktop up while you
clean underneath it.
After cleaning under the
cooktop with hot, soapy
water and a clean cloth,
lower the cooktop. Be
careful not to pinch your fingers.
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 kick panel, storage
drawer or broiler drawer (depending on the model).
Vent appearance and location vary
Lift-up Cooktop
(on models with standard twin burners)
Removable Kick Panel (on some models)
The kick panel may be removed for cleaning under
the range.
To remove, lift up the
bottom of the panel slightly
to disengage the panel from
the tabs at the base of the
range. Pull the bottom of the
panel forward until the spring
clips are released at the top of
the panel.
To replace, insert the two
slots at the bottom of the panel
onto the two tabs at the base
of the range and push the top
of the panel forward to engage
the spring clips.
Removable Broiler Drawer (on some models)
To remove:
1. When the broiler is cool, remove the grid and pan.
2. Pull the broiler drawer out until it stops, then push
it back in about one inch.
3. Grasp the handle, lift and pull the broiler drawer
out. Clean the broiler drawer with hot soapy water.
To replace:
Hold the broiler drawer in the raised position as you
slide it partway into the range. Then lower the drawer
and push it completely closed.
