Exterior Cleaning

with a soft cloth or paper towel.
Do not use abrasives, steel wool, cleaners containing ammonia, acids or commercial oven cleaners on any exterior parts of the range, except
the porcelain enamel cooktop. If a metal cleaner or polish is used on metal trim, be sure the label specifies that it is safe for use on chrome and

Most cleaning of your steel/aluminum control panel can be done using a clean cloth with warm soapy
water or other mild household cleaners.
Sometimes, applying few drops of a recommended cooktop cleaning/polishing cream (with silicone) will
remove any remaining soil and will leave a protective coating which will keep your range looking like new.
Cooktop cleaning/polishing cream can be purchased through authorized service centers or major
depmtment stores.
Models with glass panel:
Use a clean cloth or a sponge with warm, soapy water or paper towel and spray glass cleaner to clean the

the shafts.
