Range – Interior (Cont.)
Oven Heating Elements
Do not clean the bake element or the broil element. Any
soil will burn off when the elements are heated.
The bake element is not exposed and is under the oven
floor. Clean the oven floor with warm, soapy water.
Wipe up heavy soil on the oven bottom.
Normal Daily Use Cleaning
ONLY use ceramic cooktop cleaner on the glass
cooktop. Other creams may not be as effective.
For models with Precision Cooktop Sensor on the
left front element:
ONLY use water and dish detergent
on the Precision Cooktop Sensor. Do not use cream
based cleaners. Cleaners that have grit can cause build
up around sensor and restrict its ability to move freely.
To maintain and protect the surface of your glass cooktop,
follow these steps:
1. Before using the cooktop for the first time, clean it
with ceramic cooktop cleaner. This helps protect the
top and makes cleanup easier.
2. Daily use of ceramic cooktop cleaner will help keep
the cooktop looking new.
3. Shake the cleaning cream well. Apply a few drops of
ceramic cooktop cleaner directly to the cooktop.
4. Use a paper towel or non-scratch cleaning pad
for Ceramic Cooktops to clean the entire cooktop
surface.
5. Use a dry cloth or paper towel to remove all cleaning
residue. No need to rinse.
NOTE:
It is very important that you DO NOT heat the
cooktop until it has been cleaned thoroughly.
Burned-On Residue
NOTE:
DAMAGE to your glass surface may occur if you
use scrub pads other than those recommended.
For models with Precision Cooktop Sensor on the
left front element:
ONLY use non-scratch pads to clean
the surface of the Precision Cooktop Sensor. DAMAGE
to the sensor surface may occur if you use scrub pads
that are abrasive.
1. Allow the cooktop to cool.
2. Spread a few drops of ceramic cooktop cleaner on
the entire burned residue area.
3. Using the included non-scratch cleaning pad for
Ceramic Cooktops, rub the residue area, applying
pressure as needed.
4. If any residue remains, repeat the steps listed above
as needed.
5. For additional protection,
after all residue has been
removed, polish the entire
surface with ceramic
cooktop cleaner and a
paper towel.
Heavy, Burned-On Residue
For models with Precision Cooktop Sensor on the
left front element:
Do not use razor blades or scrapers
on Precision Cooktop Sensor surfaces.
1. Allow the cooktop to cool.
2. Use a single-edge razor blade scraper at approximately
a 45° angle against the glass surface and scrape the
soil. It will be necessary to apply pressure to the razor
scraper in order to remove the residue.
3. After scraping with the razor scraper, spread a few drops
of ceramic cooktop cleaner on the entire burned residue
area. Use the non-scratch cleaning pad to remove any
remaining residue.
4. For additional protection, after all residue has been
removed, polish the entire
surface with ceramic
cooktop cleaner and a
paper towel.
The ceramic cooktop scraper and all recommended supplies
are available through our Parts Center. See the Accessories
and Consumer Support sections at the end of this manual.
NOTE:
Do not use a dull or nicked blade.
Glass Cooktop
Use a non-scratch cleaning pad for
Ceramic Cooktops.
