Burner Caps
The surface burner caps should be routinely removed and cleaned.
ALWAYS clean the burner caps after a spill-over. Keeping the burner caps
clean will prevent improper ignition and uneven flames. To clean, pull
burner cap straight up from the burner base. Wipe off surface burner caps
with warm, soapy water and a soft cloth after each use. Use a non-abrasive
cleanser such as Bon Ami™ and a soft brush or soft Scotch Brite™ pad for
cooked-on foods. Dry thoroughly after cleaning. For best cleaning and to
avoid possible rusting,
DO NOT clean in dishwasher or self-cleaning oven.
Burner Base
The base should be wiped regularly with hot soapy water at the end of
each cooling period. DO NOT use steel wool, abrasive cloths, cleanser, or
powders. To remove encrusted materials, soak the area with a hot towel to
loosen the material, then use a wooden nylon spatula. DO NOT use a
metal knife, spatula, or any other metal tool to scrape the aluminum base.
Note: For stubborn stains, use a non abrasive cleanser such as Bon Ami™
and a soft brush or soft Scotch Brite™ pad.
Cleaning Tip: For difficult to clean burner caps and heads, place parts in a
zip seal bag with ammonia.
Control Panel
DO NOT use any cleaners containing ammonia or abrasives. They could
remove the graphics from the control panel. Use hot, soapy water and a
soft clean cloth.
Oven Surfaces
Several different finishes have been used in your electric oven. Cleaning
instructions for each surface are given below. Your oven features a Self-
Clean cycle for the oven interior. See the “Self-Clean Cycle” section for
complete instructions. NEVER USE AMMONIA, STEEL WOOL PADS OR
ABRASIVE CLOTHS, CLEANSERS, OVEN CLEANERS, OR ABRASIVE
POWDERS. THEY CAN PERMANENTLY DAMAGE YOUR OVEN.

Cleaning and Maintenance
Any piece of equipment works better and lasts longer when maintained
properly and kept clean. Cooking equipment is no exception. Your
range must be kept clean and maintained properly. Make sure all
controls are in the “OFF” position. Disconnect power if you are going to
clean thoroughly with water.
Surface Burners
Wipe up spill-overs as soon as possible after they occur and before
they get a chance to burn in and cook solid. In the event of a
spill-over, follow these steps:
1. Allow the burner and grate to cool to a safe temperature level.
2. Lift off the burner grate. Wash in warm soapy water.
3. Remove the burner cap and burner head and clean per
instructions below.
4. Wipe up any spills which remains on the sealed top surface.
5. Replace burner cap, burner head, and grates, after drying
thoroughly.
Note: When replacing burner head, arrow must be pointing towards
back of range.
If ports on the sealed burners are clogged, clean with a straight pin.
DO
NOT
enlarge or distort the ports.
DO NOT
use a toothpick to clean the
ports. When replacing burner head, carefully align the tabs underneath
the cap with the outside edge of burner. Make sure the tabs are not
aligned with the igniter and the burner cap is level.
