CARE & CLEANING

Cleaning the cooktop and surface burners

CAUTION

To clean the burner head ignition ports

Each burner head has a small ignition port (See Fig. 1).

Should you experience ignition problems it may be that this

port hole is partially blocked with soil. With the burner head

in place, use a small wire gauge needle or the end of a

paper clip to clear the ignition port (center burner not

shown).

To avoid possible burns 

DO NOT

 attempt any of the

cleaning instructions provided below before turning OFF

all of the surface burners and allow them to cool.

Replacing interior oven light

To replace the interior oven light:

1. Turn electrical power off at the main source or unplug

the range.

2. While holding the glass shield in place, press wire

holder to one side to release the glass shield.

3. Remove glass shield. 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

the range back in).

6. The clock will need to be reset. To reset review

“Setting the clock” section in this manual.

wire

holder

glass

shield

The interior oven light is

located at the rear of the

oven interior back wall

and is protected with a

glass shield held by a wire

holder.

The glass shield must

always be in place to

protect and shield the

oven interior light

whenever using the oven.

Be sure the range is unplugged and all parts are COOL

before replacing  oven light. Wear a leather-faced glove

for protection against possible broken glass.

CAUTION

Aluminum foil and oven liners

Using a liner in the

oven restricts the heat

and air flow needed to

obtain the best possible

cooking results for any

oven, including the

warmer drawer (on

some models).

Do not use oven bottom liners or use aluminum foil to

cover the oven bottom or any oven racks.

ignition port

slots

orifice port

Fig. 1 - Cooktop burner head

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.

WARNING

Aluminum foil and oven liners 

(cont’d)

During self-clean the oven temperature can become hot

enough to melt aluminum cooking utensils or aluminum

foil if left in the oven. This could result in damage to the

oven interior porcelain finish.

For proper gas flow it may be necessary to clean the burner

head and slots. To clean, first use a clean DAMP cloth to

soak up any spills. Remove any food from between the

burner slots using a small nonabrasive brush like a

toothbrush and afterwards wipe up using a damp cloth. For

stubborn soils, use a small-gauge wire or needle to clean.

To clean the surface burner heads

IMPORTANT

The burner heads are secured to the cooktop and

must be cleaned in place. DO NOT remove from

cooktop.

For proper flow of gas and ignition of burners 

DO NOT

allow spills, food, cleaning agents or any other

material to enter the gas orifice port opening.
