Plastic or foods with a high sugar content:
These types of soils need be removed immediately if
spilled or melted onto the ceramic cooktop surface.
Permanent damage (such as pitting of the cooktop surface)
may occur if not removed
immediately
.
After turning the surface elements OFF, use a razor blade
scraper or a metal spatula with a mitt and scrape the soil
from the hot surface (as illustrated). Allow the cooktop to
cool, and use the same method for heavy or burned on
soils.
Do not use the following on the cooktop:
Do not use abrasive cleaners and scouring pads, such
as metal and some nylon pads. They may scratch the
cooktop, making it more difficult to clean.
Do not use harsh cleaners, such as chlorine bleach,
ammonia or oven cleaners, as they may etch or
discolor the cooktop.
Do not use dirty sponges, cloths or paper towels, as
they can leave soil or lint on the cooktop which can
burn and cause discoloration.
Caution for aluminum use on the cooktop
Aluminum Foil -
Use of aluminum foil on a hot cooktop
will damage the ceramic cooktop. Do not use thin
aluminum cooking utensils or allow aluminum foil to
touch the ceramic cooktop under ANY circumstances.
Aluminum utensils -
The melting point of aluminum is
much lower than that of other metals. Care must be
taken when aluminum pots or pans are used on the
cooktop. If aluminum pans are allowed to boil dry when
using the cooktop, not only will the utensil be
destroyed, but it may fuse to, break or mark the
ceramic glass surface, permanently damaging the
cooktop surface.
Maintenance
Replacing an Oven Light
The light bulb is located at the rear of the oven and is
covered with a glass shield held by a wire holder. The glass
shield must be in place whenever the oven is in use.
To replace the oven light bulb:
1.
Turn electrical power off at the main source or unplug
the range.
2.
Press wire holder to one side to release the glass
shield.
3.
Replace bulb with a new 40 watt appliance bulb.
4.
Replace glass shield over bulb and snap wire holder
into place.
5.
Turn power back on again at the main source (or plug
in the range back in).
6.
The clock will then need to be reset. To reset, see
Setting the Clock and Minute Timer
in this Use and
Care Guide.
CAUTION:
Make sure the appliance and lights are
cool and power to the appliance has been
turned off before replacing the light
bulb(s). Failure to do so could result in
electrical shock or burns.
Be sure the range is unplugged and all
parts are COOL before replacing light.
Wear a leather-faced glove for protection
against possible broken glass.
