Do not use a steel wool pad; it will
scratch the surface.
To clean the stainless steel surface, use
warm, sudsy water or a stainless steel
cleaner or polish. Always wipe the surface
in the direction of the grain. Follow the
cleaner instructions for cleaning the
stainless steel surface.

Stainless Steel Surfaces (on some models)
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 reengaged
properly when the range is replaced. Failure to take this precaution could result in
tipping of the range and cause injury.
Control Panel
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.
Painted Surfaces
Painted surfaces include the sides of the range
and the door, top of control panel and the
drawer front. Clean these with soap and water
or a vinegar and water solution.
Do not use commercial oven cleaners, cleaning
powders, steel wool or harsh abrasives on any
painted surface.
How to Remove Protective Shipping Film and Packaging Tape
Carefully grasp a corner of the protective
shipping film with your fingers and slowly peel
it from the appliance surface. Do not use any
sharp items to remove the film. Remove all of
the film before using the appliance for the first
time.
To ensure no damage is done to the finish
of the product, the safest way to remove
the adhesive from packaging tape on new
appliances is an application of a household
liquid dishwashing detergent. Apply with
a soft cloth and allow to soak.
NOTE: The adhesive must be removed from
all parts. It cannot be removed if it is baked on.
Control Knobs
The control knobs may be removed for easier
cleaning.
Make sure the knobs are in the OFF positions
and pull them straight off the stems for
cleaning.
The knobs can be cleaned in a dishwasher or
they may also be washed with soap and water.
Make sure the inside of the knobs are dry
before replacing.
Replace the knobs, in the OFF position to
ensure proper placement.
Porcelain Enamel Cooktop (on some models)
The porcelain enamel finish is sturdy but
breakable if misused. This finish is acid-
resistant. However, any acidic foods spilled
(such as fruit juices, tomato or vinegar)
should not be permitted to remain
on the finish.
If acids spill on the cooktop while it is hot,
use a dry paper towel or cloth to wipe it up
right away. When the surface has cooled,
wash with soap and water. Rinse well.
For other spills such as fat spatterings,
wash with soap and water or cleansing
powders after the surface has cooled.
Rinse well. Polish with a dry cloth.
