CARE AND CLEANING

(continued)

Control Panel and Knobs

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 cleaners. A 50/50 solution of vinegar and hot water works well.

The control knobs may be removed for cleaning.

Before removing the knobs for cleaning, please note that the knobs on the left side and the knobs on the right side are in the proper OFF position. When replacing the knobs, check the OFF position to insure proper alignment.

To remove a knob, pull it straight off the stem. If the knob is difficult to remove, place a thin cloth (like a handkerchief) or a piece of string under and around the knob edge and pull up.

Clear groove

Molded rib

Wash the knobs in soap and water but do not soak.

To replace the knob, locate the groove in each side of the knob stem. Locate the molded rib inside the knob. Fit the molded rib of the knob into the clear groove on the knob stem.

Oven Light Bulb

NOTE: The lens should be removed only when cold. Wearing latex gloves may offer a better grip.

The light bulb is located on the rear wall of the oven. Before replacing the bulb, disconnect electrical power to the range at the main fuse or circuit breaker panel or unplug the range from the electrical outlet. Let the bulb cool completely before removing it. Do not touch a hot bulb with a damp cloth. If you do, the bulb will break.

To remove:

• Unscrew the cover and remove the bulb.

To replace:

Put in a new 40-watt appliance bulb. A 40-watt appliance bulb is smaller than a standard 40-watt household bulb.

Replace and tighten the cover.

Reconnect electrical power to the range.
