CARE AND CLEANING
Your range is designed so you can care for it easily. You can do most cleaning with items
found around your home. Cleaning your range whenever spills or soiling occurs will help to
keep it looking like new.
Electrical Shock Hazard
Make sure all controls are off and the range is cool before cleaning.
Failure to do so can result in death, electrical shock, or burns.
Cleaning porcelain oven
Porcelain has a smooth finish, and is a type of glass fused to metal. With proper care, the
porcelain enamel walls in this oven will retain a good looking finish for many years.
Food soil that is allowed to harden and bake on can be difficult to remove.
Clean the oven before it is entirely cool (not while it is hot) with detergent and water - using a
soap-filled steel wool pad on burned spots. Rinse and wipe dry.
Commercial oven cleaners may be used on conventional porcelain lined ovens. Do not spray
any oven cleaners on the electrical elements, controls, or switches because it could
cause a short circuit and result in sparking or fire. Do not let commercial oven cleaners
contact the heat seals or exterior surfaces of the range. This will cause damage. Follow
instructions carefully. After using cleaners, thoroughly rinse the oven with a solution of one
tablespoon vinegar to one cup water. Oven cleaners can coat or damage the thermostat
-sensing device (long tube in oven) so that it will not sense temperature correctly. If you are
using a commercial oven cleaner, try to avoid any contact with the rod-shaped bulb of the
thermostat. Be sure that any residue that touches the bulb is carefully removed.
Oven racks are removed by pulling forward, tilting and lifting up. Racks may be washed with
detergent and water. Scour heavily soiled areas with a soap-filled steel wool pad.
Oven and surface heating elements
Both the oven and the surface heating elements clean themselves when they are turned on.
Food spilled on a hot element will burn off. Do not immerse the surface elements in water.
TO REMOVE SURFACE ELEMENTS:
Surface elements can be removed to make
cleaning easier. To avoid the possibility of
a burn or electric shock, always be
certain that the controls for all surface
units are at the "OFF" position and all
coils are cool before attempting to lift or
remove a surface unit. To remove, lift up
edge of element opposite terminal and pull
out to clear the reflector pans.
