HOW TO CLEAN

The porcelain enamel finish is sturdy but breakable if misused. This finish is acid-resistant. However, any acidic foods spilled (such as fruit juices, tomato or vinegar) should not be permitted to remain on the finish.

If acids spill on the cook-top while it is hot, use a dry paper towel or cloth to wipe it up right away. When the surface has cooled, wash wish soap and water. Rinse well.

Painted surfaces include the sides of the range. Clean these with soap and water or vinegar and water solution.

Do not use commercial oven cleaners, cleaning powders, steel wool or harsh abrasives on any painted surfaces.

The Clean up spatters with a damp cloth. Remove heavier soil with warm, soapy water.

The control knobs may be removed for easier cleaning. To remove a knob, pull it straight off the stem. Wash the knob in soap and water but do not soak.

Be sure all the controls are turned OFF and the surface units are cool before attempting to remove them.

To clean the surface units, turn the control to the highest setting for a minute. The coils will burn off any soil.

To remove:

Push in the edge of surface unit toward the receptacle. Then lift it just enough to clear the burner bowl. Do not lift the surface unit more than 25 mm (1 in.)

Pull the surface unit straight away from the receptacle.

Lift out the burner bowl.

To replace:

Line up openings in the burner bowl with the surface unit receptacle.

Holding the surface unit as level as possible, carefully push surface unit terminal into the receptacle.

When the terminal is pushed into the receptacle as far as it will go, push down the edge of the surface unit opposite the receptacle.

Do not immerse the surface units in liquids of any kind. Do not clean the surface unit in a dishwasher. Do not bend the surface unit plug terminals.

Remove the surface units. Then lift out the drip bowls.

For best results, clean the drip bowls by hand. Place them in a covered container with ¼ cup ammonia to loosen the soil. Then scrub with a soap-filled scouring pad. Rinse with clean water and polish with a clean soft cloth.

Clean the area under the drip bowls often. Built-up soil, specially grease, may catch fire.

Clean only porcelain enamel drip bowls in a dishwasher, not chrome.

Do not cover the drip bowls with foil. Using foil so close to the receptacle could cause shock, fire or damage to the range.
