Routinely clean the cooktop. Wipe with a clean, damp cloth
and wipe dry to avoid scratches.
Keeping the surface burner head ports clean will prevent
improper ignition and an uneven flame. See the following
sections for more instructions.
Cleaning the cooktop and surface burners
CAUTION
To clean recessed and contoured areas of cooktop
If a spill occurs on or in the recessed or contoured areas,
blot up spill with an absorbent cloth. Rinse with a clean,
damp cloth and wipe dry.
To clean burner grates
•Clean when the grates are cool.
•Use nonabrasive plastic scrubbing pad and mild abrasive
cleanser.
•Food soils containing acids may affect the finish. Clean
immediately after the grates are cool.
• Thoroughly dry grates immediately following cleaning.
• To avoid possible burns DO NOT attempt any of the
cleaning instructions provided before turning OFF all of
the surface burners and allow them to cool.
• Any additions, changes or conversions required in order
for this appliance to satisfactorily meet the application
needs must be made by an authorized qualified Agency.
CARE & CLEANING
Raising and lowering the cooktop
1. Remove burner grates when cool from cooktop and
set aside.
2. Grasp the sides of the cooktop and then lift from the
front (See Fig. 1).
3. Lift the top high enough to allow the support rods to
snap into place. The lift-up rods will support the
cooktop in the raised position.
4. If necessary, clean underneath using hot, soapy water
and a clean cloth; then, dry.
5. To lower the cooktop, grasp the front corner of each
side of the top while pushing back on each rod with the
heel of your hand. This will release the notched
support. Hold the range top and gently slide the range
top down to the range.
WARNING
DO NOT turn the burners on when the cooktop is raised
for cleaning. Be sure that the top is completely lowered
and securely in place before turning on surface burners.
CAUTION
When lowering the lift-up range cooktop, grasp the sides
with fingertips only. Be careful not to pinch fingers. Do
not drop or bend the range cooktop when raising or
lowering. This could damage the cooktop surface.

General cleaning precautions
CAUTION
Remember to follow these cleaning precautions:
• Allow the oven to cool before cleaning.
• Wear rubber gloves when cleaning the appliance manually.
• Before cleaning any part of the range, be sure
all controls are turned OFF and the range is cool.
Remove spillovers and heavy soiling as soon as
possible. Regular cleanings will reduce the effort
required for major cleanings later.
• DO NOT line the oven walls, bottom, racks or any
other part of the appliance with aluminum foil.
Doing so will destroy heat distribution, produce poor
baking results and cause permanent damage to the
oven interior (aluminum foil will melt to the interior
surface of the oven).
• Ammonia must be rinsed before operating the oven.
Provide adequate ventilation.
WARNING
NEVER cover any slots, holes or passages in the
oven bottom or cover an entire rack with materials
such as aluminum foil. Doing so blocks air flow
through the oven and may cause carbon monoxide
poisoning. Aluminum foil linings may trap heat,
causing a fire hazard.
