Refrigerator:
The interior should be cleaned regularly. Re-
move shelves and wash the lining with lukewarm
water to which a mild soap may be added. Dry
thoroughly, especially around door frame and
door gasket. Warm water only should be used
to wash the cooling evaporator, ice trays and
shelves. Never use strong chemicals or abrasive
cleaning materials on any part of the cabinet.
See manufacturer's information.

Power Range Hood:

Range/Oven (option):
a.
General:
Regular cleaning with a warm detergent
solution and soft cloth will keep your range
looking bright and new. This should be done
as soon as range cools.
b.
Oven Interior:
Clean as soon as possible after use when
the oven is cool. Grease spatters that are
allowed to become hard and baked on be-
come very diffi cult to remove. Care must be
taken to avoid bending the thermal sensing
element, which could cause a variation
between the oven temperature and the dial
setting. If oven cleaners are used, protect
aluminum gas tubing, thermostat sensing
element and electrical components from
the cleaners. Thoroughly rinse oven with
a solution of one tablespoon vinegar to one
cup of water and wipe dry.
c.
Top Burners:
Top burners (caps and grates) may be
cleaned with a detergent solution. If any
burner port should become clogged, clean
with a toothpick. Never use pins or other
metal objects to clean the ports, as they may
become enlarged. If the burner is washed
in a sink, dry immediately by shaking off all
excess water and lighting the burner until all

Micro/Convection Oven:
Consult owners manuals for detailed instruc-
tions. Keep the door and inside of your micro-
wave oven clean. Grease, soil or spatter should
not be allowed to build up. A build up of soil
will absorb microwave energy, just the same as
the food you are cooking and may increase the
cooking time.
a. When food spatters or spilled liquids adhere
to walls, wipe with a damp cloth. Mild deter-
gents may be used if the oven gets very dirty.
The use of harsh detergents or abrasives is
not recommended.
b. The outside oven surface should be cleaned
with soap and water, rinsed and dried with
a soft cloth. To prevent damage to the op-
erating parts inside the oven, water should
not be allowed to seep into the ventilation
openings.
c. If the control panel becomes wet, clean with
a soft, dry cloth. Do not use harsh deter-
gents or abrasives on control panel. When
cleaning the control panel, leave the oven
door open to prevent oven from accidentally
turning on. After cleaning touch cancel pad
to clear display window.
d. It is necessary to remove the glass tray for
cleaning. Wash the tray in warm sudsy water
or in a dishwasher.
e. The roller ring and oven cavity fl oor should
be cleaned regularly to avoid excessive
noise. Simply wipe the bottom surface of
the oven with mild detergent water or win-
dow cleaner and dry. The roller ring may be
washed in mild sudsy water or dishwasher.
Cooking vapors collect during repeated use
but in no way affect the bottom surface on
roller ring wheels. When removing the roller
