37 CARE AND CLEANING
ENGLISH
Cooktop Surface
To avoid burns, do not clean the cooktop surface until it has
cooled. Foods with high acid or sugar content could cause a
dull spot if allowed to set. Wash and rinse when the surface
has cooled. For other spills such as oil/grease spattering, etc.,
wash with soap and water when the surface has cooled. Then
rinse and polish with a dry cloth.
NOTE
Do not lift the cooktop surface. Lifting the cooktop
surface can lead to damage and improper operation of the
range.

Oven air vents
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.
NOTE
Do not block the vents and air openings of the range.
They provide the air inlet and outlet that are necessary for
the range to operate properly with correct combustion.
Control Panel
To prevent activating the control panel during cleaning, unplug
the range. Clean up splatters with a damp cloth using a glass
cleaner. Remove heavier soil with warm, soapy water. Do not
use abrasives of any kind.
Front manifold panel and knobs
It is best to clean the manifold panel after each use of the
oven. For cleaning, use a damp cloth and mild soapy water or
a 50/50 solution of vinegar and water. For rinsing, use clean
water and polish dry with a soft cloth.
NOTE
 Do not use abrasive cleansers, strong liquid cleaners,
plastic scouring pads or oven cleaners on the manifold
panel. Doing so will damage the finish.
 Do not try to bend the knobs by pulling them up or
down or by hanging a towel or other objects on them.
This can damage the gas valve shaft.
 The control knobs may be removed for easy cleaning.
 To clean the knobs, make sure that they are in the “OFF”
position and pull them straight off the stems.
 To replace the knobs, make sure the knob has the “OFF”
position centered at the top, and slide the knob directly
onto the stem.
NOTE
To prevent scratching, do not use abrasive cleaners on any
of these materials.
NOTE
 Do not use a steel wool pad; it will scratch the surface.
 To clean the stainless steel surface, use warm sudsy
water or a stainless steel cleaner or polish.
 Always wipe in the direction of the metal surface finish.
