Clean the area under the cooktop often. Built-up soil,
especially grease, may catch on fire.
To make cleaning easier, the cooktop may be lifted up.
To raise the cooktop:
1. Be sure the burners are turned off.
2. Remove the grates.
3. Grasp the two front burner wells and lift up.
Some models have dual
support rods that will hold
the cooktop up while you
clean underneath it.
Clean under the cooktop
with hot, soapy water and
a clean cloth. If you
removed your surface burners while cleaning, make
sure they are properly seated when replacing them.
After cleaning, lower the cooktop (be careful not to
pinch your fingers).
CARE AND CLEANING
Oven Air Vents
Never block the vents (air openings) of the range.
They provide the air inlet and outlet that are necessary
for the range to operate properly with correct
combustion. Air openings are located at the rear of the
cooktop, at the top and bottom of the oven door, and
at the bottom of the range, under the kick panel or
storage drawer (depending on the model).
Vent appearance and location vary.
Lift-Up Cooktop
(on models with standard twin burners)
Removable Kick Panel
(on some models)
The kick panel may be removed for cleaning under
the range.
To remove, lift up the bottom
of the panel slightly to
disengage the panel from the
tabs at the base of the range.
Pull the bottom of the panel
forward until the spring clips are
released at the top of the panel.
To replace, insert the two
slots at the bottom of the
panel onto the two tabs at the
base of the range and push the
top of the panel forward to
engage the spring clips.
