Plastic or foods with a high sugar content:

These types of soils need be removed immediately if spilled

or melted onto the ceramic cooktop surface. Permanent

damage (such as pitting of the cooktop surface) may occur

if not removed immediately.

After turning the surface elements OFF, use a razor blade

scraper or a metal spatula with a mitt and scrape the soil

from the hot surface (as illustrated). Allow the cooktop to

cool, and use the same method for heavy or burned on

soils.

Damage to the ceramic glass cooktop may occur if you

use an abrasive type cleaning pad. Only use cleaning

products that have been specifically designed for ceramic

glass cooktops.

Caution for aluminum use on the cooktop

Aluminum Foil - Use of aluminum foil on a hot cooktop

will damage the ceramic cooktop. Do not use thin

aluminum cooking utensils or allow aluminum foil to

touch the ceramic cooktop under ANY circumstances.

Aluminum utensils - The melting point of aluminum

is much lower than that of other metals. Care must be

taken when aluminum pots or pans are used on the

cooktop. If aluminum pans are allowed to boil dry

when using the cooktop, not only will the utensil be

damaged or destroyed, but it may fuse to, break or

mark the ceramic glass surface, permanently

damaging the cooktop surface.

Do not use the following on the cooktop:
• Do not use abrasive cleaners and scouring pads, such as

metal and some nylon pads. They may scratch the

cooktop, making it more difficult to clean.

• Do not use harsh cleaners, such as chlorine bleach,

ammonia or oven cleaners, as they may etch or discolor

the cooktop.

• Do not use dirty sponges, cloths or paper towels, as they

can leave soil or lint on the cooktop which can burn and

cause discoloration.

WARNING

Replacing the oven light

The light bulb is located at the rear of the oven and is

covered with a glass shield held by a wire holder. The glass

shield must be in place whenever the oven is in use.

To replace the oven light bulb:

1. Turn electrical power off at the main source or unplug

the range.

2. Press wire holder to one side to release the glass

shield.

3. Replace bulb with a new 40 watt appliance bulb.

4. Replace glass shield over bulb and snap wire holder

into place.

5. Turn power back on again at the main source (or plug

the range back in).

6. The clock will then need to be reset. To reset, see

Setting the clock and minute timer in this Use &

Care Guide.

Be sure the range is unplugged and all parts are COOL before

replacing oven light. Wear a leather-faced glove for protection

against possible broken glass.
