General Care & Cleaning
(Cleaning Table)
Use caution when replacing the burner cap so the electrode is not damaged. This may cause a delayed ignition
or prevent the burner from igniting.
THE COOKTOP IS NOT REMOVABLE. Do not attempt to remove or lift the cooktop.
The cooktop is designed to make cleaning easier. Because the burners are sealed, cleanups are easy
when spillovers are cleaned up immediately. To clean, wipe with a clean, damp cloth and wipe dry.
For more information about cleaning the gas burners see Cleaning the Contoured Cooktop Well
Areas, Burner Cap, Burner Head and Burner Drip Pans in the General Care & Cleaning section.
For general cleaning, use a soft cloth, clean with mild dish detergent & water or a 50/50 solution of
vinegar & water. Follow by rinsing the area with clean water; dry & polish with a soft cloth. Glass
cleaners may be used if sprayed on a soft cloth 1st. DO NOT spray liquids directly on the control pad
and display areas. DO NOT use large amounts of water on the control panel - excess water on the
control area may cause damage to the appliance. DO NOT use other liquid cleaners, abrasive
cleaners, scouring pads, or some paper towels - they will damage the finish.
Before cleaning the control panel, turn all controls to OFF & remove the control knobs. To remove,
pull each knob straight off the shaft. Use the
general cleaning instructions provided in the paragraph
above.
Clean burner grates, broiler pan & insert in the dishwasher and dry upon removal. If soils are not
removed, follow the cooktop cleaning instructions below.
Gentle scouring with a soapy scouring pad will remove most spots. Rinse with a 1:1 solution of clean
water & ammonia.
If necessary, cover difficult spots with an 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 & wipe dry with a clean cloth. Remove all cleaners or the porcelain may become damaged
during future heating. DO NOT use spray oven cleaners on the range top.

Remove racks. See "Removing & Replacing Oven Racks" under Before Setting Oven Controls. Use
a mild, abrasive cleaner, following the cleaner’s recommendations. Rinse with clean water & let dry.
After cleaning the racks, rub the sides of the racks with wax paper or a cloth containing a small amount
of salad oil (this will make the racks glide easier into the oven rack positions).
Use soap & water to thoroughly clean the top, sides & front of the oven door. Rinse well. You may
use a glass cleaner on the outside glass of the oven door. DO NOT immerse the door in water. DO
NOT spray or allow water or the glass cleaner to enter the door vents. DO NOT use oven
cleaners, cleaning powders or any harsh abrasive cleaning materials on the outside of the oven door.
DO NOT clean the oven door gasket. The oven door gasket is made of a woven material, on Self-
Cleaning models, which is essential for a good seal. Care should be taken not to rub, damage or
remove this gasket.

or any other type of cleaners containing any abrasives, chlorides, chlorines or ammonia. It is
recommended to use mild dish soap and water or a 50/50 solution of water and vinegar.
