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 cooktop.
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.
The holes in the burners of your range must be kept clean at all times for proper ignition and
a complete, even flame. Clean the burner holes routinely with a small gauge wire or needle
and especially after bad spillovers which could clog these holes.
To remove and replace burner units per your model, see "To Remove and Replace Burners"
under General Cleaning. To clean, soak the burners in a 1:1 solution of ammonia and water
for 30 to 40 minutes. For stubborn stains, scrub with soap and water or a mild abrasive
cleanser and a damp cloth. Dry the burners thoroughly in a warm oven for 30 minutes. Then
replace them, making sure they are properly seated and level. DO NOT wash burner units
in the dishwasher.
