Control knobs (some models)
If the control panel needs cleaning turn the control knobs to OFF "O", then pull knobs straight off
the shafts.
Most cleaning of your steel/aluminum control panel can be done using a clean cloth with warm
soapy water or other mild household cleaners.
Sometimes, applying few drops of a recommended cooktop cleaning/polishing cream (with
silicone) will remove any remaining soil and will leave a protective coating which will keep your
range looking like new.
Cooktop cleaning/polishing cream can be purchased through authorized servicecenters or major
department stores.

not to let water/cleaner go behind the glass or near the knob activated controls.
Replace knobs; engage the flat surface inside the knob cavity with the flat on the shaft. Pushknobs onto the shafts.

For normal soil:
1. Allow cooktop surface to cool.

warm, soapy water.
3. If needed, use a soapy steel wool pad or other mild household cleaners.
4. Be sureto rinse off the cleaners or the porcelain may become damaged during
future heating.
For heavy, burned-on soil:
1. Allow cooktop surface to cool.
2. Usea soap filled scouring pad with warm water or cover heavily soiled spots
with a solution of clear water and ammonia. Scour gently. Rinseand wipe dry

cial oven cleaners on the exterior I
surfaces including rangetop and door
frame.
If any soil remains, apply a few drops of a recommended cooktop cleaning cream on the spots and rub gently using a clean
damp cloth or scouring pad. Buff with a dry cloth until all soil and cream are removed. Frequent cleaning with the cooktop
cleaning cream leaves a protective coating which helps in preventing scratches and abrasions.

still hot. Use caution when following the steps below.
