Cleaning and Maintenance
Burner Flange
After the burner flange has cooled, it should be wiped with hot soapy water but do not allow water to
run or drip in the large center opening. DO NOT use steel wool, abrasive cloths, cleanser, or powders.
To remove encrusted materials, soak the area with a hot towel to loosen the material, then use a
wooden or nylon spatula. DO NOT use a metal knife, spatula, or any other metal tool to scrape the
burner flange.
• Wipe up any spills which remain on the sealed top surface.
• Replace burner base, burner head, and grates after drying thoroughly.
Control Panel
DO NOT use any cleaners containing ammonia or abrasives. They could remove the
graphics from the control panel. Use hot, soapy water and a soft clean cloth.
Control Knobs
MAKE SURE ALL THE CONTROL KNOBS POINT TO THE OFF POSITION BEFORE REMOVING.
Pull the knobs straight off. Wash in detergent and warm water. Dry completely and
replace by pushing firmly onto stem. DO NOT use any cleaners containing ammonia or
abrasives. They could remove the graphics from the knob.
Oven Surfaces
Several different finishes have been used in your oven.
NEVER USE AMMONIA, STEEL WOOL PADS OR ABRASIVE CLOTHS, CLEANSERS, OVEN CLEANERS, OR ABRASIVE POWDERS. THEY
CAN PERMANENTLY DAMAGE YOUR OVEN.
VDR models – Your oven features a self-clean cycle for the oven interior. See the “Self-Clean Cycle” section for complete
instructions.
Stainless Steel Parts
All stainless steel body parts should be wiped regularly with hot soapy water after they have cooled and with a liquid cleaner designed
for that material when soapy water will not do the job. DO NOT use steel wool, abrasive cloths, cleansers, or powders. If necessary,
scrape stainless steel to remove encrusted materials, soak the area with hot towels to loosen the material, then use a wooden or nylon
spatula or scraper. DO NOT use a metal knife, spatula, or any other metal tool to scrape stainless steel. DO NOT permit citrus or tomato
juice to remain on stainless steel surface, as citric acid will permanently discolor
stainless steel. Wipe up any spills immediately.
Glass Surfaces
Clean with detergent and warm water. Glass cleaner can be used to remove fingerprints. If using glass cleaner ammonia, make
sure that it does not run down on exterior door surface.
Oven Racks
Clean with detergent and hot water. Stubborn spots can be scoured with a soap-filled steel wool pad.
