Painted Surfaces
Painted surfaces include the door,
top of the control panel and the drawer
front. Clean these with soap and water or
a vinegar and water solution.
Oven Racks
All oven racks may be cleaned by hand
with an abrasive cleaner or steel wool.
After cleaning, rinse the racks with clean
water and dry with a clean cloth. Gray
porcelain-coated oven racks may remain
in the oven during the self-cleaning
cycle without being damaged. The shiny,
silver-colored oven racks may remain
in the oven during the self-cleaning
cycle, but they will lose their luster and
become hard to slide.
Oven Light Bulbs
NOTE: The glass cover should be
removed only when cold. Wearing latex
gloves may offer a better grip.
CAUTION
: Before replacing your
oven light bulb, disconnect the electrical
power to the oven at the main fuse or
circuit breaker panel.
Be sure to let the light cover and bulb
cool completely.
For your safety, do not touch a bulb with
bare hands or a damp cloth. It can also
shorten the bulb life.
To remove:
Turn the glass cover
counterclockwise 1/4 turn until the
tabs of the glass cover clear the
grooves of the socket.
Using gloves or a dry cloth, remove
the bulb by pulling it straight out.
To replace:
Use a new 130-volt Halogen bulb,
not to exceed 50 watts.
Using gloves or a dry cloth, remove
the bulb from its packaging. Do not
touch the bulb with bare fingers.
Do not use commercial oven cleaners,
cleaning powders, steel wool or harsh
abrasives on any painted surface.
It will be necessary to grease all oven
rack side edges with a light coating of
vegetable oil after cleaning them by hand
or in the oven. This will help maintain
the ease of sliding the racks in and out of
the oven.
Receptacle
Push the bulb straight into the
receptacle all the way. Then replace
the screen.
NOTE: The screen must be replaced or
the life of the bulb will be reduced.
Place the tabs of the glass cover into
the grooves of the socket. Turn the
glass cover clockwise 1/4 turn.
For improved lighting inside
the oven, clean the glass cover
frequently using a wet cloth. This
should be done when the oven is
completely cool.
Reconnect electrical power to
the oven.
Use gloves
