Lift Up Cook-top
(Coil Surface Elements Models)
The cook-top can be lifted up for easier cleaning. The entire cook-top may be lifted up and
supported in the up position.
The surface units do not need to be removed; however, you may remove one to make
raising the cook-top easier. There are two side supports that lock into position when the
cook-top is lifted up.
After cleaning under the cook-top wit hot, mild soapy water and clean cloth, lower the
cook-top. Be careful not to pinch your fingers.
To lower the cook-top, push the rods back and gently lower the cook-top until it rests in
place.
Oven Vent
(Coil Surface Elements Models)
Never cover the opening with aluminum foil or any other material.
Glass Cook-top
(Ceramic Glass Cook-top
Models)
IMPORTANT: Prior to using your cook-top for the first time, apply some of the cook-top cleaning
cream supplied with your new range. Buff with a non-abrasive cloth or pad such a no scratch scrub
sponge. This will make cleaning easier when soiled from cooking. The special cook-top cleaning
cream leaves a protective finish on the glass to help prevent scratches and abrasion.
Also clean the glass surface after each use. This helps protect the top and makes clean up easier.
To clean the cook-top seal around the edge of the glass, let a wet cloth rest on it for a few minutes,
then wipe clean. Use a mild detergent if needed. Do not use a knife or any sharp object on the seal
because it will cut or damage it.
Sliding aluminum or cooper clad bottom pans on the cook-top can cause metal markings on the
cook-top surface. These marks should be removed immediately after the cook-top has cooled using
the cook-top cleaning cream. Metal marks can become permanent if not removed prior to future
use.
For light to moderate soil:
Apply a few drops of the cook-top cleaning cream (cleaner must be recommended for Ceramic
Glass cook-top) directly to the cook-top. Use a paper towel or a no scratch scrub sponge to
clean the entire cook-top surface. Make sure the cook-top is cleaned thoroughly, leaving no
residue.
For heavy, burned on soil:
Apply a few drops of the cook-top cleaning cream (cleaner must be recommended for Ceramic
Glass cook-top) directly to the soiled area. Rub the soiled area using a no scratch scrub sponge,
applying pressure as needed. Once the sponge has been used on the cook-top, do not use the
sponge for any other purpose.
If soils remain, carefully scrape soils with a metal razor blade scraper, holding scraper at a 30-
degree angle to the surface. Remove loosened soils with cook-top cleaner and buff surface
clean.
Store razor blades out of the reach of children.
Plastic or foods with a high sugar content:
These types of soils need be remove immediately if spilled or melted onto the ceramic cook-top
surface. Permanent damage (such as pitting of the cook-top surface) may occur if not removed
immediately. After turning the surface elements OFF, use a razor blade scraper or a metal
spatula with a mitt and scrape the soil from the hot surface (as illustrated). Allow the cook-top
to cool, and use the same method for heavy or burner on soils.
Lift-Off Oven Door
The oven door is removable for cleaning.
To remove:
Open the door to the fully opened position.
Pull up the lock located on both hinge supports and engage it in the hook of the hinge levers.
You may have to apply a little downward pressure on the door to pull the lock fully over the
hooks.
Grasp the door by the sides; pull the bottom of the door up and toward you to disengage the
hinge supports. Keep pulling the bottom of the door toward you while rotating the top of the
door toward the range to completely disengage the hinge levers.
To replace:
Proceed in reverse to reinstall the door. Make sure the hinge supports are fully engaged before
unlocking the hinge levers.
