Care and cleaning of the range.
Be sure electrical power is off and all surfaces are cool before cleaning any part of the range.
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.
