How to Clean

Use hot, soapy water and a cloth. Dry with a clean cloth.

For general cleaning

, use hot, soapy water and a cloth. 

For more difficult soils

and built-up grease

, apply a liquid detergent directly onto the soil. Leave on

soil for 30 to 60 minutes. Rinse with a damp cloth and dry. 

DO NOT 

use

abrasive cleaners on any of these materials; they can scratch. To remove

control knobs, turn to the OFF position; grasp firmly and pull straight off the

shaft. To replace knobs after cleaning, line up the flat sides of both the knob

and the shaft; then push the knob into place.

Before cleaning the control panel, 

turn all controls to OFF and remove the

control knobs. To remove, pull each knob straight off the shaft. Clean using

hot, soapy water and a dishcloth. Rinse with a clean water and a dishcloth.

Cover stubborn spots with an    ammonia-soaked paper towel for 30 to 40

minutes. Rinse. Be sure to squeeze excess water from the cloth before wiping

the panel; especially when wiping around the controls. Excess water in or

around the controls may cause damage to the appliance. Cleaners made

especially for stainless steel such as Stainless Steel Magic, trademark of Magic

American Corp., or similar products are recommended. Always follow the

manufacturer's instructions. Be sure to rinse the cleaners as bluish stains may

occur during heating and cannot be removed. To replace knobs after cleaning,

line up the flat sides of both the knob and the shaft; then push the knob into

place.

Gentle scouring with a soapy scouring pad will remove most spots. Rinse with

a 1:1 solution of clear water and ammonia. 

If necessary

, cover difficult spots

with an ammonia-soaked paper towel for 30 to 40 minutes. Rinse with clean

water and a damp cloth, and then scrub with a soap-filled scouring pad. Rinse

and wipe dry with a clean cloth. Remove all cleaners or the porcelain may

become damaged during future heating. 

DO NOT

 use spray oven cleaners on

the cooktop.

Oven racks may be removed or left in the oven during the self-clean cycle for

cleaning. If removed, clean by using a mild, abrasive cleaner following

manufacturer's instructions. Rinse with clean water and dry.

If the racks are cleaned in the self-clean cycle, their color will turn slightly blue

and the finish will be dull. After the self-clean cycle is complete, and the oven

has cooled, rub the sides of the racks with wax paper or a cloth containing a

small amount of baby oil or salad oil (this will make the racks glide easier into

the rack positions).

To clean oven door, wash with hot, soapy water and a clean cloth. 

DO NOT

immerse the door in water.

DO NOT 

clean the oven door gasket. The oven door gasket is made of a woven

material which is essential for a good seal. Care should be taken not to rub,

damage or remove the gasket.

General Cleaning

Cleaning Various Parts of Your Range

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.
