GENERAL
CARE AND CLEANING
(continued)
Lift-Up Cooktop
Clean the area under the cooktop often. Built-up soil,
especially grease, may catch fire.
To make cleaning easier, the entire cooktop may be
lifted up and supported in the up position.
Be sure all burners are turned off before raising the
cooktop. Then remove the grates and drip pans, grasp
the two front burner wells and lift up. Dual support
rods will hold the cooktop up while you clean
underneath it.
After cleaning under the cooktop with hot, soapy
water and a clean cloth, lower the cooktop. Be careful
not to pinch your fingers.

The light bulb is located in the upper left corner of the oven. Before
replacing the bulb, disconnect electrical power to range at the main fuse or
circuit breaker panel or unplug the range from the electrical outlet. Let the
bulb cool completely before removing it. Replace the bulb with a 40 watt
appliance bulb only. Do not touch a hot bulb with a damp cloth as the bulb
will break.

If food has burned on, sprinkle the rack while hot,
with detergent and cover with wet paper towels or a
dishcloth. That way, burned-on foods will soak loose
while the meal is being served.
