Caring For Your Range
Burn and Electrical
Shock Hazard
Make sure all controls
are OFF and
the range is cool before cleaning.
Failure to do so can result in burns
or electrical
shock.
The control panel and knobs
1. Turn control knobs to the OFF position.
2. Pull control knobs straight off.
3. Use warm soapy water or spray glass
cleaner, and a soft cloth, to wipe the
control panel. Rinse and wipe dry.
4. Wash control knobs in warm soapy
water. Rinse well and dry. Do not soak.
5. Replace control knobs by pushing them
firmly into place.
NOTE: When cleaning, never use steel
wool, abrasives, or commercial
oven
cleaners which may damage the finish.
After cleaning, make sure all control knobs
point to the OFF position.
The surface units and
reflector bowls
Removing
1. Turn off all surface units.
2. Lift the edge of the unit opposite the
receptacle, just enough to clear the
element hold down clip and the reflector
bowl.
3. Pull the surface unit straight away from
the receptacle.
4. Lift out the reflector bowl. See "Cleaning
chart" on page 10 for cleaning
Replacing
1. Turn off all surface units.
2. Line up openings in the reflector bowl
with the surface unit receptacle and the
element hold down clip.
3. Hold the surface unit as level as possible
with the terminal just started into the
receptacle.
Push the surface unit
terminal into the receptacle.
4. When the terminal is pushed into the
receptacle as far as it will go, push down
the edge of the surface unit opposite the
receptacle. The element hold down clip
will keep the surface unit from moving
around.
Reflector bowls reflect heat back to the
utensils on the surface units. They also help
catch spills. When they are kept clean, they
reflect heat better and look new longer.
If a reflector bowl gets discolored, some
of the utensils may not be flat enough, or
some may be too large for the surface unit.
In either case, some of the heat that's
meant to go into or around a utensil goes
down and heats the reflector bowl. This
extra heat can discolor it.
Fire and Electrical
Shock Hazard
Do not line the reflector
bowls with
foil. Fire or electrical
shock could
result.
