part of the range.
• If your range is removed for cleaning, servicing, or

• The oven vent is located above the
right rear surface unit.
• This area could become hot during
oven use.
• It is normal for steam to come out of
the vent.
• The vent is important for proper air
circulation. Never block this vent.
Cleaning painted parts and decorative trim
• For general cleaning, use a cloth with hot and soapy water.
• For more dicult residue and built-up grease, apply a liquid detergent directly onto the area and
leave for 30 to 60 minutes. Wipe with a damp cloth and dry. Do not use abrasive cleaners on
any of these surfaces. They can scratch.

the appliance, wash the surface with dishwashing liquid and water prior to using the
Stainless Steel Appliance Cleaner or polish.
