CARE & CLEANING
Cleaning the cooktop and surface burners
To clean the burner head ignition ports
Each burner head has a small ignition port (See Fig. 1).
Should you experience ignition problems it may be that
this port hole is partially blocked with soil. With the burner
head in place, use a small wire gauge needle or the end
of a paper clip to clear the ignition port (center burner not
shown).
To avoid possible burns DO NOT attempt any of the
cleaning instructions provided below before turning OFF
all of the surface burners and allow them to cool.

wire
holder
glass
shield
The interior oven light is
located at the rear of the
oven interior back wall
and is protected with a
glass shield held by a wire
holder.
The glass shield must
always be in place
to protect and shield
the oven interior light
whenever using the oven.
Be sure the range is unplugged and all parts are COOL
before replacing oven light. Wear a leather-faced glove
for protection against possible broken glass.
Aluminum foil and oven liners
Using a liner in the
oven restricts the heat
and air ow needed to
obtain the best possible
cooking results for any
oven, including the
warmer drawer (on
some models).
Do not use oven bottom liners or use aluminum foil to
cover the oven bottom or any oven racks.
Fig. 1 - Cooktop burner head
NEVER cover any slots, holes or passages in
the oven bottom or cover an entire rack with
materials such as aluminum foil. Doing so blocks
air ow through the oven and may cause carbon
monoxide poisoning. Aluminum foil linings may
trap heat, causing a re hazard.
Aluminum foil and oven liners (cont’d)
During self-clean the oven temperature can become hot
enough to melt aluminum cooking utensils or aluminum
foil if left in the oven. This could result in damage to the
oven interior porcelain nish.
To clean the surface burner heads
For proper gas ow it may be necessary to clean the
burner head and slots. To clean, rst use a clean DAMP
cloth to soak up any spills. Remove any food from between
the burner slots using a small nonabrasive brush like a
toothbrush and afterwards wipe up using a damp cloth. For
stubborn soils, use a small-gauge wire or needle to clean.
IMPORTANT
• The burner heads are secured to the cooktop and must
be cleaned in place. DO NOT remove from cooktop.
• For proper ow of gas and ignition of burners DO NOT
allow spills, food, cleaning agents or any other
material to enter the gas orice port opening.
