CARE AND CLEANING

CARE AND CLEANING

Proper care and cleaning are important so your range will give you efficient and satisfactory service. Follow these directions carefully in caring for it to help assure safe and proper maintenance.

BE SURE ELECTRICAL POWER IS DISCONNECTED BEFORE CLEANING ANY PART OF YOUR RANGE.

Standard Twin Burners

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

Grate

Surface burner

Turn all controls OFF before removing burner parts.

The burner grates can be lifted off, making them easy to clean.

Clean these holes thoroughly on each burner.

The holes in the surface burners of your range must be kept clean at all times for proper ignition and an even, unhampered flame.

You should clean the surface burners routinely, especially after bad spillovers, which could clog these holes. Wipe off surface burners.

If heavy spillover occurs, remove the surface burners from the range. The cooktop lifts up for easy access to the burners. Remove the screw from each burner.

Burners lift out for cleaning. Lift up the cooktop and then lift out the surface burners.

To remove burned-on food, soak the surface burner in a solution of mild liquid detergent and hot water. Soak the surface burner for 20 to 30 minutes. For more stubborn stains, use a cleanser like Soft Scrub¨ brand or Bon Ami¨ brand. Rinse well to remove any traces of the cleanser that might clog the surface burner openings. Do not use steel wool because it will clog the surface burner openings and scratch the surface burners. If the holes become clogged, clean them with a sewing needle or twist-tie.

Before putting the surface burner back, shake out excess water and then dry it thoroughly by setting it in a warm oven for 30 minutes. Then place it back in the range, making sure it is properly seated and level. Replace the screw.

Check the flame pattern of each burner. If the flames are ÒjumpyÓ (not steady), clean the holes again with a sewing needle or twist-tie.

from the pan. Carefully pour
