Oven Light Bulbs
NOTE:
The glass cover should be
removed only when cold. Wearing latex
gloves may offer a better grip.
CAUTION
:
Before replacing your
oven light bulb, disconnect the electrical
power to the oven at the main fuse or
circuit breaker panel.
Be sure to let the light cover and bulb
cool completely.
For your safety, do not touch a hot bulb
with bare hands or a damp cloth.
To remove:
Turn the glass cover
counterclockwise 1/4 turn until the
tabs of the glass cover clear the
grooves of the socket.
Using gloves or a dry cloth, remove
the bulb by pulling it straight out.
To replace:
Use a new 130-volt halogen bulb,
not to exceed 50 watts.
Using gloves or a dry cloth, remove
the bulb from its packaging. Do not
touch the bulb with bare fingers.
Push the bulb straight into the
receptacle all the way.
Place the tabs of the glass cover into
the grooves of the socket. Turn the
glass cover clockwise 1/4 turn to
engage.
For improved lighting inside
the oven, clean the glass cover
frequently using a wet cloth. This
should be done when the oven is
completely cool.
Reconnect electrical power to
the oven.

Care and cleaning of the range.
Burner Grates and Center Grate
Porcelain enamel burner grates and the
vent grille should be washed regularly
and, of course, after spillovers.
The grates may be washed either in the
dishwasher or you may wash them in hot
soapy water and rinse with clean water.
You may also use abrasive cleaners and
scouring pads to clean burner grates and
the vent grille. Dry the grates and grille
with a cloth—don’t put them back on the
cooktop wet.
To get rid of burned-on food, place the
grates and grille in a covered container.
Add 1/4 cup (59 mL) ammonia and let
them soak several hours or overnight.
Wash, rinse well and dry.
Although they’re durable, the grates
and grille will gradually lose their shine,
regardless of the best care you can give
them. This is due to their continual
exposure to high temperatures.
Do not operate a burner for an extended
period of time without cookware on the
grate. The finish on the grate may chip
without cookware to absorb the heat.
After cleaning, replace the center vent
grille first. Replace the side grates so that
the center extensions are oriented toward
the center of the cooktop. The rear
center extensions should slightly overlap
the vent grille. Make sure the grates are
positioned securely over the burners and
that they are stable and level.
Rubber Grate Feet
For stability, your cooktop has rubber
feet on the burner grates. If any of these
rubber feet should become damaged or
lost, replace them immediately.
