SELECT MODELS
Never use oven cleaners, chlorine bleach,
ammonia or glass cleaners with ammo-
nia. NOTE: Call an authorized servicer if
the glass-ceramic top should crack, break
or if metal or aluminum foil should melt
on the cooktop.
Allow cooktop to cool before clean-
ing.
General – Always clean cooktop after
each use with a damp paper towel and
Cooktop Cleaning Creme* (Part No.
20000001)**. Then buff with a clean, dry
cloth.
NOTE: Permanent stains will develop if
soil is allowed to cook on by repeatedly
using the cooktop when soiled.
Heavy Soils or Metal Marks – Dampen a
"scratchless" or "never scratch" scrubber
sponge. Apply Cooktop Cleaning Creme*
and scrub to remove as much soil as
possible. Apply a thin layer of the creme
over the soil, cover with a damp paper
towel and let stand 30 to 45 minutes (2 to
3 hours for very heavy soil). Keep moist by
covering the paper towel with plastic wrap.
Scrub again, then buff with a clean dry
cloth.
NOTE: Only use a CLEAN, DAMP
"scratchless" pad that is safe for non-
stick cookware. The pattern and glass
will be damaged if the pad is not damp,
if the pad is soiled, or if another type of
pad is used.

sponge and Cooktop Cleaning Creme*.

scribed previously. Do
not use the razor
blade for daily
cleaning as it
may wear
the pat-
tern on the
glass.

OFF and allow to cool. Clean residue with
razor blade scraper and Cooktop Cleaning
Creme*.
METAL FINISHES –
TRIM
Wash with soap and water, a glass cleaner,
or mild liquid sprays.
To prevent scratching or dulling of the
finish, do not use mildly abrasive, abra-
sive, harsh or caustic cleaners such as
oven cleaners.

OVEN INTERIOR

Follow instructions on page 11 for self-
cleaning oven.

OVEN RACKS

Clean with soapy water.
Remove stubborn soil with cleansing pow-
der or soap-filled scouring pad. Rinse and
dry.
Racks will permanently discolor and may
not slide smoothly if left in the oven during
a self-clean operation. If this occurs, wipe
the rack and embossed rack supports with
a small amount of vegetable oil to restore
ease of movement, then wipe off excess
oil.
PLASTIC FINISHES –
&
BACKGUARD TRIM END CAPS
When cool, clean with soap and water,
rinse and dry.
Use a glass cleaner and a soft cloth.
NOTE: Never use oven cleaners, abrasive or
caustic liquid or powdered cleansers on plastic
finishes. These cleaning agents will scratch or
mar finish.
NOTE: To prevent staining or discoloration,
wipe up fat, grease or acid (tomato, lemon,
vinegar, milk, fruit juice, marinade) immedi-
ately with a dry paper towel or cloth.
