Care and cleaning of the range.
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.
Air openings are located at the rear of
the cooktop, at the top and bottom of the
oven door and at the bottom of the range,
under the storage drawer or warming drawer
(depending on the model).
Lower Control Panel (Front Manifold Panel) and Knobs
It’s a good idea to wipe the control panel after
each use of the oven. Use a damp cloth to clean
or rinse. For cleaning, use mild soap and water
or a 50/50 solution of vinegar and water. For
rinsing, use clean water. Polish dry with a soft
cloth.
Do not use abrasive cleansers, strong liquid
cleaners, plastic scouring pads or oven cleaners
on the control panel—they will damage the
finish.
Do not bend knobs by pulling them up or down
or by hanging a towel or other such loads. This
can damage the gas valve shaft.
The control knobs may be removed for easier
cleaning. To remove a knob, pull it straight off
the stem. If knob is difficult to remove, place a
towel or dishcloth between the knob and control
panel and pull gently. Wash the knobs in soap
and water or a vinegar and hot water solution.
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.
Vent appearance and location vary.
Pull the knob straight off the stem.

Oven Shelves
If your oven is equipped with nickel oven
shelves, they should be removed from the oven
before beginning the self-clean cycle.
To clean the nickel shelves, use an abrasive
cleanser. After cleaning, rinse the shelves with
clean water and dry with a clean cloth. If the
shelves ever become hard to slide, wipe the shelf
edges or oven shelf supports with vegetable oil.
If your oven is equipped with gray porcelain-
coated shelves, they may be cleaned in the oven
during the self-clean cycle.
They may also be cleaned by using an abrasive
cleanser. After cleaning, rinse the shelves with
clean water and dry with a clean cloth. If the
shelves ever become hard to slide, wipe the shelf
edges or oven shelf supports with vegetable oil.
Oven Light Replacement
CAUTION: Before replacing your oven
light bulb, disconnect the electrical power to the range at
the main fuse or circuit breaker panel. Be sure to let the
light cover and bulb cool completely.
The oven light bulb is covered with a removable
glass cover that is held in place with a bail-
shaped wire. Remove the oven door, if desired,
to reach cover easily.
To remove:
Hold a hand under the cover so it doesn’t
fall when released. With fingers of the same
hand, firmly push back the wire cover
holder. Lift off the cover.
Do not remove any screws to remove
the cover.
Do not touch hot bulb with a wet cloth.
Replace bulb with a 40-watt household
appliance bulb.
To replace cover:
Place it into the groove of the light
receptacle. Pull the wire forward to the
center of the cover until it snaps into place.
When in place, the wire holds the cover
firmly. Be certain the wire is in the
depression in the center of the cover.
Connect electrical power to the range.
