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 your range to
assure safe and proper maintenance.
Porcelain Enamel Finish
The porcelain enamel finish is
sturdy but breakable if misused.
This ftish is acid-resistant. However,
any acid foods spilled (such as fruit
juices, tomato or vinegar) should not
be permitted to remain on the finish.
Cleaning Under the Range
The area under the range can be
reached easily for cleaning by
removing the bottom drawer. To
remove, pull drawer out all the way,
tilt up the front and remove it. To
replace, insert glides at back of
drawer beyond stop on range glides.
Lift draw& if necessary to-insert
easily. Let front of drawer down,
then push in to close.
Oven Lamp
CAUTION: Before replacing your
oven bulb, disconnect the electrical
power for your range at the main
fuse or circuit breaker panel. Be
sure to let the lamp cover and bulb
cool completely before removing or
replacing.
To remove lamp: unscrew the 3
slotted screws in the lamp cover,
detach lens and frame and remove
bulb.
To replace lamp: use a high
temperature appliance bulb of same
size and wattage as original. Replace
the lamp cover and rescrew it back
into place. Reconnect electrical
power to the range.
Removable Oven Door
Hinge keeper In
normal poslhon
'
To remove the door, open completely,
press down lightly on door and slide
hinge keepers forward on each
hinge to lock the door open.
Grasp the door on both sides midway
between the
and bottom. Close
top
the door halfway (45°) and lift until
the hinges disengage from the
range body.
To replace, grasp door at sides. W.h
the door at an angle as shown, locate
the upper hinges in the two upper
slots on the front face of the oven.
Lower the door to the horizontal
position allowing the lower hinge to
engage. Press down lightly on door,
returning the hinge keepers to the
normal position and close the door.
CAUTION: If the door is not
horizontal, the hinges are not
properly engaged. Lift the door off
and reinstall it.

Solid Elements
The solid element is made of hiph
I
strength cast-iron alloy. The tri;
ring is stainless steel. A heat-
, door removal
resistant coating helps preserve the
surface of the element.
The solid element should be washed
with a damp cloth, dried, and wiped
over lightly with cooking oil.
Boiled-over material on the
element should be removed with a
slightly damp cloth as soon as
possible after the element cools.
Dry the element by switching it on
for a few minutes.
Clean very dirty solid elements
with a damp cloth and a little cleaning
powder with a scouring pad.
The matte black surface can be
maintained by treating it periodically
with the Cello Electrol@ polish
packed with your range. Use the
applicator to apply a very thin
on high for several minutes to bake
the polish to the element. When the
element is cooled, rub lightly with
a cloth or paper towel to remove
any excess polish. Before next use,
burn off the element by means of a
short preheating period. A slight
amount of smoke and odor will occur.
Cooking and pre-delivery factory
testing will permanently change the
trim ring to a gold color. This
normal characteristic of stainless
steel will not affect the operation or
performance of your elements.
Cleaning the trim ring with a good
quality stainless steel cleaner will
also restore the trim ring to its
original color, until it is reheated.
Failure to maintain the solid
elements as directed will result in
defacing the surface over a period
of time primarily due to corrosion
as the elements are made of cast
iron construction.
Do not use covers over the solid
elements. An element turned on
while the cover is in place can
permanently damage the cooktop.
Covers can also trap moisture which
may cause the elements to rust.
