Oven Shelves

Clean the shelves with an abrasive cleanser or steel wool. After cleaning, rinse the shelves with clean water and dry with a clean cloth.

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 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). Lower cooktop gently to avoid blowing out pilot flames (on standing pilot models).

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, storage

 

drawer or broiler drawer (depending on the model).

Vent appearance and location vary.

Care and Cleaning

Removable Storage Drawer (on some models)

The storage drawer is a good place to store cookware and bakeware. Do not store plastics and flammable material in the drawer.

The storage drawer may be removed for cleaning under the range. Clean the storage drawer with a damp cloth or sponge. Never use harsh abrasives or scouring pads.

To remove the storage drawer:

1. Pull the drawer straight out until it stops.

2. Tilt the front of the drawer up and free of the range.

To replace the storage drawer:

1.Set the stops on the back of the drawer over the stops in the range.

2.Slide the drawer evenly and straight back, so that the rails in the range are engaged.

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.
