Care and cleaning of the range.
Oven Vent and Cooktop Air Inlet
The oven is vented through an opening
in the cooktop under the grille. The
cooktop takes in air through the air inlet
located through the cooktop. Never cover these openings with
aluminum foil or any other material.
This would prevent the vents from
working properly.
Control Panel
If desired, the touch pads may be turned off
before cleaning.
See the Control Lockout section.
Clean up splatters with a damp cloth.
Remove heavier soil with warm soapy
water. Do not use abrasives of any kind.
Turn on the touch pads after cleaning.
Removable Oven Floor
To remove the oven floor for easier cleaning:
Remove the oven door using the
instructions in the Lift-Off Oven Door
section.
Grasp oven floor at the rear finger
slots on each side, lift it up, push it
back and pull it out.
Clean the oven floor with warm
soapy water.
IMPORTANT: Always replace the
removable floor before the next use.
