materials; they can scratch.

turn all controls to OFF and remove the control knobs.
To remove, pull each knob straight off the shaft. Clean as instructed above. 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.
To replace knobs after cleaning, line up the flat sides of both the knob and the shaft,
then push the knob(s) into place.
Clean burner grates, broiler pan and insert in the dishwasher and dry upon removal. If
soils are not removed, follow the cooktop cleaning instructions below.

ammonia-soaked paper towel for 30 to 40 minutes. Rinse with clean water and a damp
cloth, then scrub with a soap-filled scouring pad. Rinse and wipe dry with a clean cloth.

Before Setting Oven
Controls
. Use a mild, abrasive cleaner, following manufacturer's instructions. Rinse
with clean water and dry. After cleaning the racks, 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).
The holes in the burners of your range must be kept clean at all times for proper ignition
and a complete, even flame.
Clean the burner holes routinely with a small gauge wire
or needle and especially after bad spillovers which could clog these holes.

Burners" under

ammonia and water for 30 to 40 minutes. For stubborn stains, scrub with soap and

warm oven for 30 minutes. Then replace them, making sure they are properly seated and
level.
DO NOT
wash burner units in the dishwasher.
To clean oven door, wash with hot, soapy water and a clean cloth.
DO NOT
immerse the
door in water.

remove the gasket.
