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.
Painted Surfaces
Painted surfaces include the outside oven door, sides, control panel and
drawer front. Clean these with soap and water or a vinegar and water
solution. Do not use commercial oven cleaners, cleansing powders,
steel wool or harsh abrasives on any painted surface.
Glass Window
To clean the outside of the oven window, use a glass cleaner. Rinse and
polish with a dry cloth. Do not allow the water or cleaner to run down
inside the openings in the glass or the openings in the top of the oven door
while cleaning.
Control Panel and Knobs
It's a good idea to wipe the control panel after each
use. Clean with mild soap and water or vinegar and
water, rinse with clean water and polish dry with a
soft cloth.
Do not use abrasive cleansers, strong liquid cleansers,
plastic scouring pads or oven cleaners on the control
panel–they will damage the finish. A 50/50 solution
of vinewu- and hot water works well.
The control knobs may be removed for easier
cleaning. Before removing the knobs for cleaning,
please note that the knobs on the left side and the
knobs on the right side are in the proper OFF position.
When replacing the knobs, check the OFF position to
insure proper alignment.
To remove a knob, pull it straight off the stem. If a
knob is difficult to remove, place a thin cloth (like a
handkerchief,) or a piece of string under and around
the knob edge and pull up.
