General Cleaning

IMPORTANT: Before cleaning, make sure all controls are off and
the oven and cooktop are cool. Always follow label instructions
on cleaning products. Soap, water and a soft cloth or sponge are
suggested first unless otherwise noted.

EXTERIOR PORCELAIN ENAMEL SURFACES
(on some models)

Food spills containing acids, such as vinegar and tomato, should
be cleaned as soon as the entire appliance is cool. These spills
may affect the finish.

Glass cleaner, mild liquid cleaner or nonabrasive scrubbing
pad: Gently clean around the model and serial number plate
because scrubbing may remove numbers.

STAINLESS STEEL (on some models)

NOTE: Do not use soap-filled scouring pads, abrasive cleaners,
Cooktop Polishing Creme, steel-wool pads, gritty washcloths or
some paper towels. Damage may occur, even with one-time or
limited use.

Rub in direction of grain to avoid damaging.

Stainless Steel Cleaner & Polish (sample included): See
“Assistance or Service” section to order.

Liquid detergent or all-purpose cleaner: Rinse with clean
water and dry with soft, lint-free cloth.

Vinegar for hard water spots

CERAMIC GLASS (on some models)

Do not use steel wool, abrasive powder cleansers, chlorine
bleach, rust remover or ammonia because damage may occur.

Always wipe with a clean, wet cloth or sponge and dry thoroughly
to prevent streaking and staining.

Cooktop Polishing Creme (sample included) is recommended for
regular use to help prevent scratches, pitting and abrasions, and
to condition the cooktop. It may be ordered as an accessory. See
“Assistance or Service” to order.

A Cooktop Scraper is also recommended for stubborn soils, and
can be ordered as an accessory. See “Assistance or Service” to
order. The Cooktop Scraper uses razor blades. Store razor
blades out of the reach of children.
