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 effort required for major cleanings later.

Surfaces					How to Clean
Aluminum (Trim Pieces) & Vinyl					Use hot, soapy water and a cloth. Dry with a clean cloth.

Glass, Painted and Plastic Control					For general cleaning, use hot, soapy water and a cloth. For more difficult soils
Knobs, Body Sides, and Decorative					and built-up grease, apply a liquid detergent directly onto the soil. Leave on
Trim					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. To remove
					control knobs, turn to the OFF position; grasp firmly and pull straight off the
					shaft. To replace knobs after cleaning, line up the flat sides of both the knob
					and the shaft; then push the knob into place.

Stainless Steel, Chrome Control Panel,					Before cleaning the control panel, turn all controls to OFF and remove the
Decorative Trim					control knobs. To remove, pull each knob straight off the shaft. Clean using
					hot, soapy water and a dishcloth. Rinse with a clean water and a dishcloth.
					Cover stubborn spots with an ammonia-soaked paper towel for 30 to 40
					minutes. Rinse. Be sure to 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. Cleaners made
					especially for stainless steel such as Stainless Steel Magic, trademark of Magic
					American Corp., or similar products are recommended. Always follow the
					manufacturer's instructions. Be sure to rinse the cleaners as bluish stains may
					occur during heating and cannot be removed. To replace knobs after cleaning,
					line up the flat sides of both the knob and the shaft; then push the knob into
					place.

Porcelain Enamel Broiler Pan and					Gentle scouring with a soapy scouring pad will remove most spots. Rinse with
Insert, Door Liner, Body Sides, Warmer					a 1:1 solution of clear water and ammonia. If necessary, cover difficult spots
Drawer (if equipped)					with an ammonia-soaked paper towel for 30 to 40 minutes. Rinse with clean
					water and a damp cloth, and 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.

Oven Racks					Oven racks may be removed or left in the oven during the self-clean cycle for
					cleaning. If removed, clean by using a mild, abrasive cleaner following

					manufacturer's instructions. Rinse with clean water and dry.


					If the racks are cleaned in the self-clean cycle, their color will turn slightly blue

					and the finish will be dull. After the self-clean cycle is complete, and the oven


					has cooled, 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).

Oven Door					To clean oven door, wash with hot, soapy water and a clean cloth. DO NOT
					immerse the door in water.
					DO NOT clean the oven door gasket. The oven door gasket is made of a woven
					material, on self cleaning models, which is essential for a good seal. Care
					should be taken not to rub, damage or remove the gasket.
