How to Clean

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. Be sure to 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 into place.

Clean in the dishwasher and dry upon removal. If soils are not removed, follow these cooktop

cleaning instructions:Gentle scouring with a soapy scouring pad will remove most spots. Rinse with

a 1:1 solution of clear 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, and 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 rangetop.

Clean with hot, soapy water and a dishcloth. Rinse with clean water and a cloth. Cover stubborn spots

with an ammonia-soaked paper towel for 30 to 40 minutes. Rinse. Cleaners made especially for

stainless steel are recommended. Be sure to rinse the cleaners as bluish stains may occur during

heating and cannot be removed.

Oven racks can be removed or left in the oven during the self-cleaning cycle for cleaning. If removed,

clean by using a mild, abrasive cleaner, following manufacturer's instructions. Rinse with clean water

and dry.

If the racks are cleaned in the self-clean cycle, their color will turn slightly blue and the finish will be

dull. After the self-clean cycle is completed, and the oven has cooled, rub the sides of the racks with

wax paper or a cloth containing a small amount of baby oil or salad oil (this will make the racks glide

easier into the rack positions).

The holes in the burners of your range must be kept clean at all times for proper ignition and a

complete, even flame.Clean burner holes routinely with a small gauge wire or needle and especially

after bad spillovers which could clog these holes.

To remove and replace burner units per your model, see "To Remove and Replace Burners" under

General Cleaning. To clean, soak the burners in a 1:1 clean water and ammonia solution for 30 to

40 minutes. For stubborn stains, scrub with soap and water or a mild abrasive cleanser and a damp

cloth. Before putting the burner back, dry it thoroughly by setting it in a warm oven for 30 minutes.

Then replace it, making sure it is properly seated and level. DO NOT put burner units in the

dishwasher.

To clean oven door, wash with hot, soapy water and a clean cloth. DO NOT immerse the door in water.

DO NOT clean the oven door gasket. (Self-cleaning oven only: The oven door gasket is made of a woven

material which is essential for a good seal). Care should be taken not to rub, damage or remove the

gasket.
