Cleaning and Maintenance
● Make sure all the control knobs are off and the appliance
is cool before cleaning.
● Make sure all the appliance surfaces, burner grates and
burners are cool before cleaning or disassembling.
● DO NOT use bleach or rust removers on the cooktop or
burner grates.
● DO NOT obstruct the flow of combustion and ventilation
air.
● Keep the appliance area clear of combustible materials,
gasoline and other flammable vapors and liquids.
● Clean oven with oven cleaner only. Follow directions on
the container.
● Never use a wire brush or metallic item for cleaning burner
ports or orifices. Brush may “shed” bristles that may lodge
in the orifice or burner ports and cause a fire or explosion.
● Clean all surfaces as soon as possible after boilovers or
spillovers.
● Use warm soapy water only to clean the burner grates,
cooktops, painted surfaces, porcelain surfaces, stainless
steel surfaces and plastic items on your range or cooktop.
Do not use grit or acid-type cleaners. Do not use cleaners
with ammonia, Cleaners of these types are corrosive and
could damage component parts in the range.
● DO NOT use steel wool, or abrasive cleaners, or acid type
cleaners such as chlorine bleach on your cooktop or grate
systems. They will damage your range or cooktop. Use
only non-abrasive plastic scrubbing pads.
● DO NOT allow foods containing acids (such as lemons or
tomato juice, or vinegar) to remain on porcelain or painted
surfaces. Acids may remove the glossy finish. Wipe up
egg spills when cooktop is cool.
● DO NOT wash warm porcelain surfaces. Allow these
areas to cool before cleaning. You could burn yourself or
the porcelain could crack.
● Pitting and discoloration will result if spills are allowed to
remain for any length of time on stainless steel.
● DO NOT allow spillovers to remain on the burner caps.
The caps could become permanently stained.
● When cleaning around the burners use care to prevent
damage to the electrode (if so equipped). If a sponge or
cloth should catch the metal igniter electrode, it could
damage or break the electrode. If this occurs the burner
will not light.
The Oven Door

When removing the door:
● Do not place excessive weight on an open oven door or
stand on an open oven door as, in some cases, it could
cause the range to tip over, break or damage the door
to the extent that the range would be unsafe to use, or
cause serious injury to the user.
● When opening the oven door, allow steam and hot air to
escape before reaching in oven to check, add or remove
food.

turned off before removing the door. Failure to do so
could result in electrical shock or burns.
