Care and cleaning of the range.
Be sure all controls are off and all surfaces are cool before cleaning any part of the range.
Control Knobs
The control knobs may be removed for easier
cleaning.
Make sure the knobs are in the OFF
positions and pull them straight off the
stems for cleaning.
The knobs can be cleaned in a dishwasher
or they may also be washed with soap and
water. Make sure the insides of the knobs are
dry before replacing.
Replace the knobs in the
OFF position to
ensure proper placement.
How to Remove Protective Shipping Film and Packaging Tape
Carefully grasp a corner of the protective
shipping film with your fingers and slowly
peel it from the appliance surface. Do not
use any sharp items to remove the film.
Remove all of the film before using the
appliance for the first time.
To assure no damage is done to the finish
of the product, the safest way to remove
the adhesive from packaging tape on new
appliances is an application of a household
liquid dishwashing detergent. Apply with a
soft cloth and allow to soak.
NOTE: The adhesive must be removed from all
parts. It cannot be removed if it is baked on.
WARNING:
If your range is removed for cleaning, servicing or any
reason, be sure the anti-tip device is reengaged properly when the range is
replaced. Failure to take this precaution could result in tipping of the range and
cause injury.

Burner Assembly
The burner assemblies should be washed
regularly and, of course, after spillovers.
Turn all controls off before removing burner parts.
The burner grates, burner heads and burner
caps can be removed for easy cleaning.
The electrode of the spark igniter is exposed
beyond the surface of the burner base. When
cleaning the cooktop, be careful not to snag the
electrode of the spark igniter with your cleaning
cloth. Damage to the igniter could occur. To
avoid snagging a cloth on the spark igniter,
leave the burner heads in place when cleaning
the cooktop.
Be careful not to push in any cooktop controls
while cleaning the cooktop. A slight electrical
shock might result which could cause you to
knock over hot cookware.
Wash burner parts with an all-purpose
non-abrasive cleaner and warm water. Soak
stubborn soil. Dry them with a cloth—do not
reassemble while wet.
To reassemble the surface burners:
Place burner heads over the electrodes on
the cooktop, in the correct locations
according to their size.
Place the matching size caps onto the
heads. Make sure that the heads and caps
are placed in the correct locations.
After cleaning,
first replace the
vent grille and
vent grille cap.
Replace the
side grates so
that they fit
over the tabs
on the vent
grille. Make
sure the grates
are positioned
securely over
the burners
and that they
are stable and level.
CAUTION:
DO NOT OPERATE THE BURNER
WITHOUT ALL BURNER PARTS
IN PLACE.
Make sure the slot in the burner
head is positioned over electrode.
