Removable Downdraft Vents and Grease Filters
Downdraft vents and filters should be cleaned
frequently—after every use is best.
To remove: Pull out the vent grills and lift out
aluminum grease filters.
To clean: Clean the grease filters in hot soapy water.
Do not clean in a dishwasher.
To replace:
1. The angled flanges at the top and bottom edges
of the filter should face toward the inside of the
unit with the top edge slanted outward.
2. Reinsert the vent grill.
Oven Shelves
Clean the shelves with an abrasive cleanser or
steel wool. After cleaning, rinse the shelves with
clean water and dry with a clean cloth.
NOTE: The oven shelves may be cleaned in self-
cleaning oven. However, they will darken, lose their
luster and become hard to slide. Wipe the shelf
supports with cooking oil after self-cleaning to make
the shelves slide more easily.
Broiler Pan and Rack
After broiling, remove the broiler pan from the oven.
Remove the rack from the pan. Carefully pour out
grease from the pan into a proper container. Wash and
rinse the broiler pan and rack in hot water with a
soap-filled or plastic scouring pad.
If food has burned on, sprinkle the rack with
detergent while hot and cover with wet paper towels
or a dishcloth. Soaking the pan will remove burned
on foods.
The broiler pan may be cleaned with a commercial
oven cleaner. Do not use an oven cleaner on the rack.
Grease Jars
Behind the lower compartment panel two grease jars
are mounted (one for each well) to catch fat and
drippings. To open the lower panel, grasp the handle
and pull flat to the floor.
The lid of the jar is permanently mounted and
connected by a tube to a spout at the front of each
grease well. The jar can be unscrewed from the lid to
be emptied and cleaned, or to be replaced. The jar is a
standard one pint jar. Quart canning jars may also fit.

CARE AND CLEANING
(continued)
-\–/--5"""""
Both the broiler pan and rack can also be cleaned in
the dishwasher.
Do not clean the broiler pan or rack in the self-
cleaning oven.
Do not store a soiled broiler pan and rack anywhere
in the range.
Do not use thin walled glass or plastic jars such as
those having contained food products. Such jars could
fracture or fail.
Different foods give different amounts of fat and
drippings so you should check the jar each time it is
used. If the jar is not emptied or replaced often
enough, the fat and drippings may overflow.
