CARE AND CLEANING

Oven Air Vents

 

Never block the vents (air openings) of the range.

 

They provide the air inlet and outlet that are necessary

 

for the range to operate properly with correct

 

combustion. Air openings are located at the rear of the

 

cooktop, at the top and bottom of the oven door, and

 

at the bottom of the range, under the kick panel or

 

storage drawer (depending on the model).

Vent appearance and location vary.

 

Lift-Up Cooktop (on models with standard twin burners)

Clean the area under the cooktop often. Built-up soil, especially grease, may catch on fire.

To make cleaning easier, the cooktop may be lifted up.

To raise the cooktop:

1.Be sure the burners are turned off.

2.Remove the grates.

3.Grasp the two front burner wells and lift up.

Some models have dual support rods that will hold the cooktop up while you clean underneath it.

Clean under the cooktop with hot, soapy water and

a clean cloth. If you

removed your surface burners while cleaning, make sure they are properly seated when replacing them.

After cleaning, lower the cooktop (be careful not to pinch your fingers).

Removable Kick Panel (on some models)

The kick panel may be removed for cleaning under the range.

To remove, lift up the bottom of the panel slightly to disengage the panel from the tabs at the base of the range. Pull the bottom of the panel forward until the spring clips are released at the top of the panel.

To replace, insert the two slots at the bottom of the panel onto the two tabs at the base of the range and push the top of the panel forward to engage the spring clips.
