How to Clean
Use hot, soapy water and a cloth. Dry with a clean cloth.
For general cleaning, use hot, soapy water and a cloth. For more difficult soils and built-
up grease, apply a liquid detergent directly onto the soil. Leave on soil for 30 to 60
minutes. Rinse with a damp cloth and dry. DO NOT use abrasive cleaners on any of these
materials; they can scratch.
Before cleaning the control panel, turn all controls to OFF and remove the control
knobs. To remove, pull each knob straight off the shaft. Clean as instructed above.
Squeeze excess water from the cloth before wiping the panel; especially when wiping
around the controls. Excess water in or around the controls may cause damage to the
appliance. To replace knobs after cleaning, line up the flat sides of both the knob and
the shaft, then push the knob(s) into place.
Clean burner grates, broiler pan and insert in the dishwasher and dry upon removal. If
soils are not removed, follow the cooktop cleaning instructions below.
Gentle scouring with a soapy scouring pad will remove most spots. Rinse with a 1:1
solution of clean water and ammonia. If necessary, cover difficult spots with an
ammonia-soaked paper towel for 30 to 40 minutes. Rinse with clean water and a damp
cloth, then scrub with a soap-filled scouring pad. Rinse and wipe dry with a clean cloth.
Remove all cleaners or the porcelain may become damaged during future heating. DO
NOT use spray oven cleaners on the range top.
Clean with hot, soapy water and a dishcloth. Rinse with clean water and a cloth. Cover
stubborn spots with an ammonia-soaked paper towel for 30-40 minutes. Rinse.
Cleaners made especially for stainless steel are recommended. Be sure to rinse the
cleaners as bluish stains may occur during heating and cannot be removed.
Remove racks. See "Removing and Replacing Oven Racks" under Before Setting Oven
Controls. Use a mild, abrasive cleaner, following manufacturer's instructions. Rinse
with clean water and dry. After cleaning the racks, rub the sides of the racks with wax
paper or a cloth containing a small amount of baby oil or salad oil (this will make the
racks glide easier into the rack positions).
To clean the oven door and exterior door frame, wash with hot, soapy water and a clean
cloth. DO NOT immerse the door in water.
DO NOT clean the oven door seal. The woven material of the oven door seal is essential
for a good seal. Care should be taken not to rub, damage or remove the oven door seal.
General Cleaning
Cleaning Various Parts of Your Range
Before cleaning any part of the range, be sure all controls are turned OFF and
the range is COOL. REMOVE SPILLOVERS AND HEAVY SOILING AS SOON AS
POSSIBLE. REGULAR CLEANINGS WILL REDUCE THE NUMBER OF MAJOR
CLEANINGS LATER.
