Care and cleaning of the range.
GEAppliances.com
Be sure all controls are off and all surfaces are cool before cleaning any part of the range.
If your range is removed for cleaning, servicing or any reason, be sure the anti-tip
device is re-engaged properly when the range is replaced. Failure to take this
precaution could result in tipping of the range and cause injury.
How to Remove Packaging Tape
To assure no damage is done to the finish
of the product, the safest way to remove
the adhesive left from packaging tape on
new appliances is an application of a
household liquid dishwashing detergent,
mineral oil or cooking oil.
Apply with a soft cloth and allow to soak.
Wipe dry and then apply an appliance
polish to thoroughly clean and protect
the surface.
NOTE:
The plastic tape (on some models) must be
removed from all chrome trim. It cannot be
removed if it is baked on.
Control Knobs
To Remove:
Be sure the knob is in the
OFF
position.
Pull straight off the stem. Using a
piece of string can make removing
the knob easier. Slip the string
under and around the knob,
pull straight out.
Wash the knob thoroughly with warm soapy
water. Dry completely with a soft cloth. DO NOT
let the knob soak.
To Replace:
Check the back of the knob.
The molded rib of the knob is
designed to fit perfectly onto the
knob stem.
Align the molded rib to the clear
groove in the knob stem. Push the
knob back as far as it will go.
