CARE AND CLEANING

(continued)

Control Panel and Knobs

ItÕs a good idea to wipe the control panel after each use of the oven. 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 cleaners, plastic scouring pads or oven cleaners on the control panelÑthey will damage the finish. A 50/50 solution of vinegar and hot water works well.

The control knobs may be removed for easier cleaning. To remove knob, pull it straight off the stem.

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

Metal parts can be cleaned with soap and water. Do not use steel wool, abrasives, ammonia, acids or commercial oven cleaners. Dry with a soft cloth.

Oven Shelves

Clean the shelves with an abrasive cleanser or steel wool. After cleaning, rinse the shelves with clean water and dry with a clean cloth.

Oven Air Vents

Never block the vents (air openings) of the range. They provide the air inlet and outlet that are necessary for the range to operate properly with correct combustion.

Lift-Up Cooktop

Clean the area under the cooktop often. Built-up soil, especially grease, may catch on fire.

To make cleaning easier, the cooktop may be lifted up.

To raise the cooktop:

1.Be sure burners are turned off.

2.Remove the grates.

3.Grasp the sides

of the cooktop and lift it from the front until support rods snap into place.

The dual support rods will hold the cooktop up while you clean underneath it.

After cleaning under the cooktop with hot, soapy water and a clean cloth, lower the cooktop. Be careful not to pinch your fingers. Lower cooktop gently to avoid blowing out pilot flames (on standing pilot models).
