How to Remove Packaging Tape
To assure no damage is done to the finish
of the product, the safest way to remove
the adhesive left from packaging tape on
new appliances is an application of a
household liquid dishwashing detergent,
mineral oil or cooking oil.
Oven Vent
(electric coil models only)
The oven is vented through an opening
under the right rear surface unit.
Oven Vent
(glass cooktop models only)
On models with glass cooktops, the oven
is vented through an opening at the rear
of the cooktop.
Oven Shelves
Clean the oven shelves with an abrasive
cleanser or steel wool.
Control Knobs
The control knobs may be removed for easier
cleaning.
Before removing the knobs for cleaning,
please note that the knobs are in the OFF
position. When replacing the knobs,
check the OFF position to insure proper
placement.
The knob stem has a groove in each side.
The groove on one side has a spring clip.
Broiler Pan & Grid
After broiling, remove the broiler pan
from the oven. Remove the grid from the
pan. Carefully pour out the grease from
the pan into a proper container.
Wash and rinse the broiler pan and grid in
hot water with a soap-filled or plastic
scouring pad.
Apply with a soft cloth and allow to soak. Wipe
dry and then apply an appliance polish to
thoroughly clean and protect the surface.
NOTE: The plastic tape must be removed from all
chrome trim. It cannot be removed if it is baked on.
Never cover the opening with aluminum foil or
any other material.
Never cover the opening with aluminum foil or
any other material.
After cleaning, rinse the shelves with
clean water and dry with a clean cloth.
The other groove is clear (see
illustration). Check the inside of the knob
and find the molded rib.
Wash the knobs in soap and water or a
vinegar and hot water solution but do
not soak.
Replace the knob by fitting the molded
rib inside the knob into the clear groove
on the stem.
If food has burned on, sprinkle the grid
with detergent while hot and cover with
wet paper towels or a dishcloth. Soaking
the pan will remove burned-on foods.
Both the broiler pan and grid may be
cleaned with a commercial oven cleaner.
Both the broiler pan and grid can also be
cleaned in a dishwasher.
