Care And Cleaning; Oven Heating Elements - GE JCP67FWW - Profile 40" Electric Range Owner's Manual

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.
BE SURE ELECTRIC POWER IS OFF BEFORE
CLEANING ANY PART OF THE RANGE.
Surface Units and Drip Pans
To clean the surface units, turn the control to the
highest setting for a minute. The coils will burn off
any soil.
CAUTION
• Be sure all the controls are turned to OFF and
the surface units are cool before attempting to
remove them.
• Do not immerse the surface units in liquids
of any kind.
• Do not clean the surface units in a dishwasher.
• Do not bend the surface unit plug terminals.
• Do not attempt to clean, adjust or in any way repair
the plug-in receptacle.
To remove a surface unit:
To remove the drip pans for cleaning, the surface
units must be removed first.
Surface unit
Receptacle
Lift the surface unit about 1 inch above the drip pan
and pull it out.
Do not lift the surface unit more than 1 inch.
If you do, it may not lie flat on the drip pan when
you plug it back in.

Oven Heating Elements

Do not clean the bake element or the broil
element. Any soil will burn off when the elements
are heated.
The bake element can be lifted gently to clean the
oven floor. If spillovers, residue or ash accumulate
around the bake element gently wipe around the
element with warm water.

If your range is removed for
cleaning, servicing or any reason,
be sure the anti-tip device is re-
engaged properly when the range
is replaced. Failure to take this
precaution could result in tipping
of the range and cause injury.
Repeated lifting of the surface unit more
than 1 inch above the drip pan can permanently
damage the receptacle.
To replace a surface unit:
• Replace the drip pan into the recess in the
cooktop. Make sure opening in the pan lines up
with the receptacle.
• Insert the terminals of the surface unit through the
opening in the drip pan and into the receptacle.
• Guide the surface unit into place so it rests evenly.
Drip Pans
Remove the surface units. Then lift out the drip pans.
For best results, clean the drip pans by hand.
Place them in a covered container (or a plastic bag)
with 1/4 cup ammonia to loosen the soil. Then scrub
with a soap filled scouring pad if necessary. Rinse
with clean water and polish with a clean soft cloth.
The drip pans may also be cleaned in the dishwasher.
Black drip pans (on some models) may be cleaned in
a self-cleaning oven after they have been thoroughly
rinsed. However, self-cleaning them may cause them
to lose their original luster and shine.
Clean the area under the drip pans often.
Built-up soil, especially grease, may catch on fire.
Do not cover the drip pans with foil. Using foil
so close to the receptacle could cause shock, fire or
damage to the range.
