Care and cleaning of the range.

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

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.

Control Panel

It’s a good idea to wipe the control panel after each use. Clean with mild soap and water or vinegar and water, rinse with clean water and polish dry with a soft cloth.

Do not use abrasive cleansers, strong liquid cleansers, plastic scouring pads or oven cleansers on the control panel—they will damage the finish. A 50/50 solution of vinegar and hot water works well.

Control Knobs

The control knobs may be removed for easier cleaning.

Before removing the knobs for cleaning, please note that the knobs are in the OFF position. When replacing the knobs, check the OFF position to insure proper placement.

The knob stem has a groove in each side. The groove on one side has a spring clip.

The other groove is clear (see illustration). Check the inside of the knob and find the molded rib.

Wash the knobs in soap and water or a vinegar and hot water solution but do not soak.

Replace the knob by fitting the molded rib inside the knob into the clear groove on the stem.
