General Care & Cleaning
Use hot, soapy water and a cloth. Dry with a clean cloth.
For general cleaning
, use hot, soapy water and a cloth.
For more difficult soils and built-up
grease
, apply a liquid detergent directly onto the soil. Leave on soil for 30 to 60 minutes. Rinse
with a damp cloth and dry.
DO NOT
use abrasive cleaners on any of these materials; they can
scratch.
Before cleaning the control panel,
turn all controls to OFF and remove the control knobs. To
remove, pull each knob straight off the shaft. Clean as instructed above. Squeeze excess water
from the cloth before wiping the panel; especially when wiping around the controls. Excess water
in or around the controls may cause damage to the appliance. To replace knobs after cleaning,
line up the flat sides of both the knob and the shaft, then push the knob(s) into place.
Clean burner grates, broiler pan & insert in the dishwasher and dry upon removal. If soils are not
removed, follow the cooktop cleaning instructions below.
Gentle scouring with a soapy scouring pad will remove most spots. Rinse with a 1:1 solution of
clean water and ammonia.
If necessary,
cover difficult spots with an ammonia-soaked paper
towel for 30 to 40 minutes. Rinse with clean water and a damp cloth, then scrub with a soap-
filled scouring pad. Rinse and wipe dry with a clean cloth. Remove all cleaners or the porcelain
may become damaged during future heating.
DO NOT
use spray oven cleaners on the range top.
Remove racks. See "Removing & Replacing Oven Racks" under
Before Setting Oven Controls
.
Use a mild, abrasive cleaner, following the cleaner’s recommendations. Rinse with clean water &
let dry. After cleaning the racks, rub the sides of the racks with wax paper or a cloth containing a
small amount of salad oil (this will make the racks glide easier into the oven rack positions).
Use soap & water to thoroughly clean the top, sides & front of the oven door. Rinse well. You
may use a glass cleaner on the outside glass of the oven door.
DO NOT
immerse the door in
water.
DO NOT spray or allow water or the glass cleaner to enter the door vents.
DO NOT
use oven cleaners, cleaning powders or any harsh abrasive cleaning materials on the outside of
the oven door.
DO NOT
clean the oven door gasket. The oven door gasket is made of a woven
material, on Self-Cleaning models, which is essential for a good seal. Care should be taken not
to rub, damage or remove this gasket.
