CARE AND CLEANING

(continued)

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.

After cleaning under the cooktop with hot, soapy

water and a clean cloth, 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.

Fluorescent Night Light (on some models)

CAUTION: Do not touch the bulb with wet hands or when the bulb is hot. Never wipe the light area with a wet cloth. Electrical power must be shut off if you have to replace the bulb.

1. With a phillips screwdriver, remove the two screws.

2.Lift canopy straight up.
