CARE & CLEANING

Cleaning the cooktop and surface burners

CAUTION

To avoid possible burns use care when cleaning the cooktop. DONOT attempt to clean the cooktop whenever the cooktop or burner heads are still hot.

Any additions, changes or conversions required in order for this appliance to satisfactorily meet the application needs must be made by an authorized qualified Agency.

Routinely clean the cooktop. Wipe with a clean, damp cloth and wipe dry to avoid scratches. Keeping the surface burner head ports and slots clean will prevent improper ignition and an uneven flame. See the following sections for more instructions.

To clean recessed and contoured areas of cooktop

If a spill occurs on or in the recessed or contoured areas, blot up spill with an absorbent cloth. Rinse with a clean, damp cloth and wipe dry.

To clean burner grates

•Clean when the grates are cool.

•Use nonabrasive plastic scrubbing pad and mild abrasive cleanser.

•Food soils containing acids may affect the finish. Clean immediately after the grates are cool.

•Thoroughly dry grates immediately following cleaning.

To clean burner caps

•Remove caps from burner heads after they have cooled.

•Clean heavy soils with a plastic scrubbing pad and absorbent cloth.

•Thoroughly dry burner caps immediately following cleaning including the bottom and inside of cap.

•Do not use abrasive cleaners. They can scratch porcelain.

•Do not clean burner caps in the dishwasher.

•Do not operate surface burners without burner caps properly in place. See IMPORTANT notes below.

IMPORTANT

Always keep the surface burner caps in place whenever a surface burner is in use.

When replacing the burner caps, be sure the burner caps are seated firmly on top of the burner heads.

The surface burner heads are secured to the cooktop and must be cleaned in place on the cooktop.

To clean the surface burner heads

For proper gas flow it may be necessary to clean the burner head and slots (See Figs. 1 & 2). To clean, first use a clean DAMP cloth to soak up any spills. Remove any food from between the burner slots using a small nonabrasive brush like a toothbrush and afterwards wipe up using a damp cloth. For stubborn soils located in the slots, use a small-gauge wire or needle to clean.

Any spill on or around the electrode must be carefully cleaned. Take care not to hit the electrode with any thing hard or it could be damaged.

To clean the burner head ignition ports

Each burner head (except Powerplus boil burner) has a small ignition port located as illustrated. Should you experience ignition problems it may be that this port hole is partially blocked with soil. With the burner head in place, use a small wire gauge needle or the end of a paper clip to clear the ignition port (See Fig. 1 - center oval burner not shown).

Replacing oven light

CAUTION

Be sure the range is unplugged and all parts are COOL before replacing oven light. Wear a leather-faced glove for protection against possible broken glass.

The light bulb is located at the rear of the oven and is covered with a glass shield held by a wire holder. The glass shield must be in place whenever the oven is in use.

To replace the oven light bulb:

1.Turn electrical power off at the main source or unplug the range.
