Safety Instructions

Care and cleaning of the range.

Be sure electrical power is off and all surfaces are cool before cleaning any part of the range.

WARNING: If your range is removed for cleaning, servicing or any reason, be sure the anti-tip device is re-engaged properly when the range is replaced. Failure to take this precaution could result in tipping of the range and cause injury.

Standard Twin Burner Assemblies (on some models)

Tips Installation Instructions Operating Instructions

Grate

Drip pan (if so equipped)

Surface burner

CAUTION:

Do not operate the cooktop without all burner parts, drip pans (if so equipped) and grates in place.

For cleaning information on sealed burners, see next section. Sealed burner cooktops do not lift up.

On models with standard twin burners, the cooktop lifts up for easy access.

Turn all controls OFF before removing burner parts and drip pans (if so equipped).

The burner grates and drip pans (if so equipped) can be lifted off, making them easy to clean.

The holes in the surface burners of your range must be kept clean at all times for proper ignition and an even, unhampered flame.

You should clean the surface burners routinely, especially after bad spillovers, which could clog these holes.

Wipe off surface burners. If heavy spillover occurs, remove the surface burners from the range. Burners lift out for cleaning. Lift up the cooktop and then lift out the surface burners.

To remove burned-on food, soak the surface burner in a solution of mild liquid detergent and hot water. Soak the surface burner for 20–30 minutes.

For more stubborn stains, use a cleanser like Soft Scrub® brand or Bon Ami® brand. Rinse well to remove any traces of the cleanser that might clog the surface burner openings.

Do not use steel wool because it will clog the surface burner openings and scratch the surface burners. If the holes become clogged, clean them with a sewing needle or twist-tie.

Before putting the surface burner back, shake out excess water and then dry it thoroughly by setting it in a warm oven for 30 minutes. Then place it back in the range, making sure it is properly seated and level.

Check the flame pattern of each burner. If the flames are “jumpy” (not steady), clean the holes again with a sewing needle or twist-tie.

Clean these holes thoroughly on each burner.

Drip Pans (if so equipped)

Remove the grates and lift out the drip pans. Drip pans can be cleaned in a dishwasher or by hand.

When replacing the drip pans, make sure they are in the correct position.

To get rid of burned-on food, place them in a covered container (or plastic bag) with 1/4 cup ammonia to loosen the soil. Then scrub with a soap-filled scouring pad if necessary.

CAUTION: Do not clean the drip pans in a self-cleaning oven.
