CARE AND CLEANING

Proper care and cleaning are important so your range will give you efficient
and satisfactory service. Follow these directions carefully in caring for it to 
help assure safe and proper maintenance.

BE SURE ELECTRIC POWER IS OFF BEFORE CLEANING ANY PART 
OF THE RANGE.

If your range is removed for cleaning, servicing or any reason, 
be sure anti-tip device is re-engaged properly when the range

is replaced. Failure to take this precaution could result in tipping of
the range and cause injury. 

How to Remove the Range for Cleaning and Servicing

Follow these steps to remove the range for servicing
or cleaning hard to reach surfaces.

1. Shut off the gas supply to the range.

2. Disconnect the electrical supply to the range.

3. Disconnect the gas supply tubing to the range.

4. Slide the range forward to free the range foot from

the Anti-Tip bracket. See the Installation
Instructions for the location of the bracket.

5. Reverse these steps to re-install the range. If the 

gas line has been disconnected, check for gas leaks
after re-connection. See the Installation Instructions
for the gas lead test method.

NOTE: A trained technician should make the gas
installation, disconnection and re-connection of the 
gas supply to the appliance.

Lift-Up/Off Cooktop

Clean the area under the cooktop often. Built-up soil,
especially grease, may catch on fire.

To make cleaning easier, the cooktop may be lifted
up or off.

Be sure all burners are turned off before raising
the cooktop. 
Then remove the grates. Grasp the two
front burner wells and lift the cooktop up or off. Be
careful of the pilots when the cooktop is up.

After cleaning underneath the cooktop with hot,
soapy water and a clean cloth, 
lower or replace the
cooktop. Be careful not to pinch your fingers.
