How to Remove the Storage Drawer or Kick Panel to Clean Under the Range
The area under the range can be reached easily for cleaning by removing the bottom drawer (on some models). To remove, pull the drawer out all the way, tilt up the front and remove it. To replace, insert glides at the back of the drawer beyond the stop on range glides. Lift the drawer if necessary to insert easily. Let the front of the drawer down, then push in to close.
Control Panel and Knobs
Clean up any spills or spatters with a damp cloth. Remove heavier soil with warm, soapy water.
Clean the control panel with mild liquid
dish detergent and a soft cloth. Rub the control panel lightly.
CAUTION: Do not use abrasives of any kind on the control panel. The lettering on models with touch pads is sensitive to abrasives and pressure.
To clean under models with a front kick panel, remove the panel by pulling it straight out at the bottom. To replace the panel, first hook the top tabs on and then the bottom tabs.
The control knobs may be removed for easier cleaning. To remove a knob, pull it straight off the stem. Wash the knobs in soap and water but do not soak.
