Tips Care and Cleaning
Drip Pans (electric coil models only)
Remove the surface units. Then lift out the drip pans.
For best results, clean the drip pans by hand. Place them in a covered container (or a plastic bag) with 1/4 cup ammonia to loosen the soil. Then scrub with a soap- filled scouring pad if necessary. Rinse with clean water and polish with a clean soft cloth.
The drip pans may also be cleaned in a dishwasher.
Clean the area under the drip pans often.
Do not cover the drip pans with foil. Using foil so close to the receptacle could cause shock, fire or damage to the range.
Service Troubleshooting
Support rods
Be sure all surface units are turned off before raising the cooktop.
Some models have a cooktop that can be lifted up for easier cleaning.
The entire cooktop may be lifted up and supported in the up position. Grasp the front sides of the cooktop and lift.
The surface units and drip pans do not need to be removed before raising the cooktop, however, you may remove one to make raising the cooktop easier.
After cleaning under the cooktop with hot, mild soapy water and a clean cloth, lower the cooktop. Be careful not to pinch your fingers.

Oven Heating Elements
Do not clean the bake element or the broil element. Any soil will burn off when the elements are heated.
To clean the oven floor, gently lift the bake element. Clean with warm soapy water.
