Care and cleaning of the range. www.GEAppliances.com

Be sure all controls are 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 reengaged properly when the range is replaced. Failure to take this precaution could result in tipping of the range and cause injury.

Safety Instructions

How to Remove Packaging Tape

To assure no damage is done to the finish of the product, the safest way to remove the adhesive left from packaging tape and cooktop labels on new appliances

is an application of a household liquid dishwashing detergent, mineral oil or cooking oil.

Apply with a soft cloth and allow to soak. Wipe dry and then apply an appliance polish to thoroughly clean and protect the surface.

NOTE: The adhesive must be removed from all parts. It cannot be removed if it is baked on.

Operating Instructions

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.

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

Burner cap

Burner head

Electrode Burner base

CAUTION: DO NOT OPERATE THE BURNER WITHOUT ALL BURNER PARTS IN PLACE.

Burner Assembly

The burner assemblies should be washed regularly and, of course, after spillovers.

Turn all controls off before removing burner parts.

The burner grates, burner heads and burner caps can be removed for easy cleaning.

The electrode of the spark igniter is exposed beyond the surface of the burner base. When cleaning the cooktop, be careful not to snag the electrode of the spark igniter with your cleaning cloth. Damage to the igniter could occur.

To avoid snagging a cloth on the spark igniter, leave the burner heads in place when cleaning the cooktop.

Be careful not to push in any cooktop controls while cleaning the cooktop. A slight electrical shock might result which could cause you to knock over hot cookware.

Wash burner parts with an all-purpose non-abrasive cleaner and warm water. Soak stubborn soil. Dry them with a cloth—do not reassemble while wet.

To reassemble, replace the burner head first, then the burner cap and finally the burner grate. Be sure the pins in the burner head are properly located in the burner base holes.
