Cleaning the Glass Cooktop {Cont.)
Cooktop Seal (on some models)
To clean the cooktop seal around the edges of the glass,
lay a wet cloth on it for a few minutes, then wipe clean
with nonabrasive cleaners.
Damage from Sugary Spills and Melted Plastic
Special care should be taken when removing hot substances to avoid permanent damage of the glass surface.
Sugary spillovers (such as jellies, fudge, candy, syrups) or melted plastics can cause pitting of the surface of your
cooktop (not covered by the warranty) unless the spill is removed while still hot. Special care should be taken when
removing hot substances.
Be sure to use a new, sharp razor scraper.
Do not use a dull or nicked blade.
1. Turn off all surface units. Remove hot pans.
2. Wearing an oven mitt:
a. Use a single-edge razor blade scraper (CERAMA
BRYTE ® Ceramic Cooktop Scraper) to move the
spill to a cool area on the cooktop.
b. Remove the spill with paper towels.
3. Any remaining spillover should be left until the surface
of the cooktop has cooled.
4. Don't use the surface units again until all of the
residue has been completely removed.
NOTE: If pitting or indentation in the glass surface has
already occurred, the cooktop glass will have to be
replaced. In this case, service will be necessary.

[,&WARNING
jACAUTION
i SHOCK OR BURN HAZARD: Before replacing oven light bulb, disconnect the electrical
power to the range at the main fuse or circuit breaker panel. Failure to do so may result
in electric shock or burn.
BURN HAZARD: The glass cover and bulb should be removed when cool. Touching hot
glass with bare hands or a damp cloth can cause burns.
Oven Light Replacement {on some models)
To remove:
1. Turn the glass cover counterclockwise 1/4 turn until
the tabs of the glass cover clear the grooves of the
socket. Wearing latex gloves may offer a better grip.
2. Using gloves or a dry cloth, remove the bulb by
pulling it straight out.
To replace:
1. Use a new 120/130-volt halogen bulb, not to exceed
50 watts. Replace the bulb with the same type of bulb
that was removed. Be sure the replacement bulb is
rated 120 volts or 130 volts (NOT 12 volts).
2. Using gloves or a dry cloth, remove the bulb from its
packaging. Do not touch the bulb with bare fingers.
Oil from skin will damage the bulb and shorten its life.
3. Push the bulb straight into the receptacle all the way.
4. Place the tabs of the glass cover into the grooves of
the socket. Turn the glass cover clockwise 1/4 turn.
For improved lighting inside the oven, clean the glass
cover frequently using a wet cloth. This should be
done when the oven is completely cool.
5. Reconnect electrical power to the oven.
