COIL ELEMENTS (on some models)
Cleaning Method:
■ Damp cloth: Make sure control knobs are off and elements are
cool.
Do not clean or immerse in water. Soil will burn off when hot.
BURNER BOWLS (on some models)
Before removing or replacing coil elements and burner bowls,
make sure they are cool and the control knobs are in the OFF
position.
Remove the coil element by pushing the edge of the coil element
toward the receptacle. Lift it enough to clear the burner bowl. Pull
the coil element straight away from the receptacle to remove. Lift
out the burner bowl.
Cleaning Method:
Chrome burner bowls
Wash frequently in warm, soapy water. (It is not recommended to
wash chrome bowls in a dishwasher.) A mild abrasive cleaner and
a plastic scrubber can be used to remove stubborn stains.
For heavily soiled bowls, place an ammonia soaked paper towel
on the stains and allow to soak for a short time, then gently scrub
with a plastic scrubber.
OVEN RACKS
Cleaning Method:
■ Steel-wool pad
■ For racks that have discolored and are harder to slide, a light
coating of vegetable oil applied to the rack guides will help
them slide.
STORAGE DRAWER OR WARMING DRAWER (on some
models)
Check that storage drawer or warming is cool and empty before
cleaning.
Cleaning Method:
■ Mild detergent
OVEN CAVITY

Food spills should be cleaned when oven cools. At high
temperatures, foods react with porcelain. Staining, etching,
pitting,or faint white spots can result.
Cleaning Method:
■ See the “Self-Cleaning Cycle” section, if available on your
model.
