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 by the support rod that
catches and holds the top when it’s
all the way up.
Be sure all surface units are
turned off before raising the
cooktop. Grasp the front sides
of the cooktop and lift.
After cleaning under the cooktop
with hot, mild soapy water and a
clean cloth, put the cooktop back
in place. Be careful not to pinch
your fingers.
Outer Enamel Finish
(on models so equipped)
The porcelain enamel cooktop is
sturdy but breakable if misused.
This finish is acid-resistant.
However, any food spills that are
high in acid (such as fruit juices,
tomato or vinegar) should not be
permitted to remain on the finish.
Brushed Chrome Finish
(on models so equipped)
Clean the brushed chrome top
with warm, soapy water or an
purpose household cleaner and
immediately dry it with a clean,
soft cloth. Take care to dry the
surface following the “grain.” To
help prevent finger marks after
cleaning, spread a thin film of
baby oil on the surface. Wipe away
excess oil with a clean, soft cloth.
A good appliance wax will help
protect this finish.
Oven Light Bulb
The light bulb is located on the rear
wall of the oven. Before replacing
the bulb, disconnect electric power
to the range at the main fuse or
circuit breaker panel or unplug the
range from the electric outlet. Let
the bulb cool completely before
removing it. Do not touch a hot
bulb with a damp cloth. If you do,
the bulb will break.
Never touch the electrically live
collar on the bulb when replacing it.

cleaning easier, plug-in units are
removable.
Caution: Be sure all controls are
turned to OFF and surface units
are cool before attempting to
remove them.
After removing plug-in units,
remove the drip pans under the
units and clean them according to
directions in the Cleaning Guide.
Wipe around the edges of the
surface unit openings. Clean the
area below the units. Rinse all
washed areas with a damp cloth
or sponge.
Control Knobs
The control knobs may be removed
for cleaning.
To remove knob, pull it straight

remove, place a thin cloth (like a
handkerchief) or a piece of string
under and around the knob edge
and pull up.
Wash knobs in soap and water but
do not soak.
To replace knob, locate the groove
in each side of the knob stem. One
of the grooves contains a spring
clip and the other groove is clear.
Locate the molded rib inside the
knob. Fit the molded rib of the
knob into the clear groove on the
knob stem.
Make sure to replace the single
oven control knob on the correct
knob stem.
