How to Clean
Use hot, soapy water and a cloth. Dry with a clean cloth.

Before cleaning the control panel, turn all controls to OFF and remove the control knobs. To
remove, pull each knob straight off the shaft. Clean using hot, soapy water and a dishcloth. Be
sure to squeeze excess water from the cloth before wiping the panel; especially when wiping
around the controls. Excess water in or around the controls may cause damage to the appli-
ance. To replace knobs after cleaning, line up the flat sides of both the knob and the shaft;
then push the knob into place.

Cleaners made especially for stainless steel as Stainless Steel Magic, or other similar cleaners
are recommended. Always follow the manufacturer’s instructions. Be sure to rinse the cleaners
as bluish stains may occur during heating and cannot be removed.

Remove racks. See "To remove and to replace an Oven Rack" under Setting Oven Controls.
Use a mild, abrasive cleaner, following manufacturer's instructions. Rinse with clean water
and dry. After cleaning the racks, rub the sides of the racks with wax paper or a cloth containing
a small amount of baby oil or salad oil (this will make the racks glide easier into the rack
positions).

Gentle scouring with a soapy scouring pad will remove most spots. Rinse with a 1:1 solution of
clear water and ammonia. If necessary, cover difficult spots with an ammonia-soaked paper
towel for 30 to 40 minutes. Rinse with clean water and a damp cloth and then scrub with a
soap-filled scouring pad. Rinse and wipe dry with a clean cloth. Remove all cleaners or the
porcelain may become damaged during future heating. DO NOT use spray oven cleaners on
the cooktop.

To clean oven door, wash with hot, soapy water and a clean cloth. DO NOT immerse the door
in water.

DO NOT clean the oven door gasket. The oven door gasket is made of a woven material
which is essential for a good seal. Care should be taken not to rub, damage or remove the
gasket.

Before cleaning any part of the range, be sure all controls are turned OFF and the
range is cool. Remove spillovers and heavy soiling as soon as possible. Regular
cleaning will reduce the effort required for major cleaning later.
