Care and cleaning of the range.

Oven Shelves

Clean the oven shelves with an abrasive

cleanser or steel wool. After cleaning,

rinse the shelves with clean water and

dry with a clean cloth.

NOTE: The oven shelves may be cleaned in the

self-cleaning oven. However, the shelves will

darken in color, lose their luster and become hard

to slide if cleaned during the self-cleaning cycle.

To make the shelves slide more easily

apply a small amount of vegetable oil or

cooking oil to a paper towel and wipe

the edges of the oven shelves with the

paper towel.

(appearance may vary)

The gasket is designed with a gap at

the bottom to allow for proper air

circulation.

Do not rub or clean the door

gasket—it has an extremely low

resistance to abrasion.

If you notice the gasket becoming

worn, frayed or damaged in any way

or if it has become displaced on the

door, you should have it replaced.

Lift-Off Oven Door

The oven door is removable for easier

access to the light bulb.

Do not lift the door by the handle.

To remove the door, open it to the broil

stop position. Grasp firmly on each side

and lift the door straight up and off the

hinges.

Do not place hands between the hinge and the

oven door frame.

To replace the door, make sure the hinges

are in the broil stop position. Position the

slots in the bottom of the door squarely

over the hinges and slowly lower it over

both hinges.

To clean the inside of the door:

■ Because the area inside the gasket is

cleaned during the self-clean cycle, you

do not need to clean this by hand.

■ The area outside the gasket and the

front frame can be cleaned with a

soap-filled steel wool or plastic pad,

hot water and detergent. Rinse well

with a vinegar and water solution.

To clean the outside of the door:

■ Use soap and water to thoroughly

clean the top, sides and front of the

oven door. Rinse well. You may also use

a glass cleaner to clean the glass on the

outside of the door. Do not let water

drip into the vent openings.

■ Spillage of marinades, fruit juices,

tomato sauces and basting materials

containing acids may cause

discoloration and should be wiped up

immediately. When surface is cool,

clean and rinse.

■ Do not use oven cleaners, cleaning

powders or harsh abrasives on the

outside of the door.

Lift the door straight up and off the

hinges.
