Care and cleaning of the range.

Be sure all controls are off and all surfaces are cool before cleaning any part of the range.
How to Remove Packaging Tape
To assure no damage is done to the finish
of the product, the safest way to remove
the adhesive left from packaging tape on
new appliances is an application of a
household liquid dishwashing detergent,
mineral oil or cooking oil. Apply with a soft cloth and allow to soak.
Wipe dry and then apply an appliance
polish to thoroughly clean and protect
the surface.
NOTE: The plastic tape must be removed from all
chrome trim. It cannot be removed if it is baked on.
If your range is removed for cleaning, servicing or any reason, be sure the anti-tip
device is reengaged properly when the range is replaced. Failure to take this
precaution could result in tipping of the range and cause injury.
Oven Vent
The oven vent is located behind the right rear
surface unit.
This area could become hot during
oven use.
It is normal for steam to come out
of the vent, and moisture may collect
underneath it when the oven is in use.
The vent is important for proper air circulation.
Never block this vent.
Control Knobs
The control knobs may be removed for easier
cleaning.
To remove a knob, pull it straight
off the stem. If a knob is difficult to
remove, place a towel or dishcloth
between the knob and control panel
and pull gently. Wash the knobs in soap
and water or a vinegar and hot water
solution.
Before removing the knobs for
cleaning, please note that the knobs are
in the OFF position. When replacing the
knobs, check the OFF position to ensure
proper placement.
The knob stem has a groove in each
side. The groove on one side has a
spring clip. The other groove is clear
(see illustration). Check the inside of
the knob and find the molded rib. Replace the knob by fitting the molded
rib inside the knob into the clear
groove on the stem.
The knob stem is flat on one side (see
illustration). Check the inside of the
knob and find the molded flat area. Replace the knob by fitting the molded
flat area inside the knob onto the flat
area of the stem.
