DOS
Read these cleaning instructions and the
●
'Safety and warnings' section before you
start cleaning your range.
Before cleaning or removing any part,
●
make sure that everything on the range
has been turned off.
Unless suggested otherwise in the chart
●
following, allow any part to cool to a safe
temperature before cleaning. If you do
need to handle a warm or hot part
(eg grill or griddle), take extreme care.
Wear long protective mitts to avoid burns
from steam or hot surfaces.
Try using any cleaner on a small area first,
●
to ensure it doesn't stain.
See the pages following this chart for
●
instructions on removing and replacing
different parts of the range for cleaning
or maintenance.
To help you identify any parts, see
●
illustrations in section 'Introduction' and
after this cleaning chart.
Ensure the anti-tip device is re-engaged if
●
you move the range for cleaning. Failure
to do this may result in the oven tipping,
and adults and children may be killed.

CARE AND CLEANING
HOW?
1 Soften any stubborn stains
under a hot soapy cloth.
2 Clean with a solution of
mild detergent and hot
water, then wipe dry with
a microfiber cloth.
3 For extra shine, use a
suitable stainless steel
cleaner and polish,
following manufacturer's
instructions.
Always rub the stainless
steel in the direction of the
polish lines.
DON'TS
Do not use aerosol cleaners until
●
the range has completely cooled.
The propellant substance in these
●
cleaners could catch fire in the
presence of heat.
Do not let soiling or grease
●
accumulate anywhere in or on the
range. This will make future cleaning
more difficult and may present a
fire hazard.
Do not use any abrasive or harsh
●
cleaners, cloths, scouring pads or
steel wool. These will scratch your
range and damage its appearance.
Do not use a steam cleaner to clean
●
any part of the range.
Do not perform any cleaning or
●
maintenance on parts not specifically
named in the chart below. If in doubt,
contact Customer Care.
Do not lift the black grill and
●
griddle frames off the cooktop.
IMPORTANT!
Always read the label to make
●
sure your stainless steel cleaner
does not contain chlorine
compounds as these are
corrosive and may damage the
appearance of your cooktop.
Do not use and take care not to
●
spill any stainless steel cleaner
on the knobs, oven handles, or
the kickstrip grate. These are
not stainless steel parts and
their surface may be damaged
by stainless steel cleaner.
When cleaning the back trim
●
and the top of the oven door,
be careful not to let any liquid
run down the vent holes.
