BROILING CHART
For best results, place food 3 in. (7 cm) or more from the broil 
element. Times are guidelines only and may need to be adjusted 
for individual foods and tastes. Recommended rack positions are 
numbered from the bottom (1) to the top (5). For diagram, see the 
“Positioning Racks and Bakeware” section.
RANGE CARE
General Cleaning
IMPORTANT: Before cleaning, make sure all controls are off and 
the oven and cooktop are cool. Always follow label instructions 
on cleaning products. Do not wipe down any of the inside 
surfaces until the oven has completely cooled down. Applying a 
cool damp cloth to the inner door glass before it has cooled 
completely could result in the glass breaking.
Soap, water and a soft cloth or sponge are suggested first unless 
otherwise noted.
EXTERIOR PORCELAIN ENAMEL SURFACES
(on some models)
Food spills containing acids, such as vinegar and tomato, should 
be cleaned as soon as the entire appliance is cool. These spills 
may affect the finish.
Glass cleaner, mild liquid cleaner or non-abrasive scrubbing 
pad:
Gently clean around the model and serial number plate 
because scrubbing may remove numbers.
CERAMIC GLASS 
(on some models)
Do not use steel wool, abrasive powder cleansers, chlorine 
bleach, rust remover or ammonia because damage may occur.
Always wipe with a clean, wet cloth or sponge and dry thoroughly 
to prevent streaking and staining.
Cooktop Polishing Creme is recommended regularly to help 
prevent scratches, pitting and abrasions and to condition the 
cooktop, and can be ordered as an accessory. See “Assistance 
or Service” to order.
A Cooktop Scraper is also recommended for stubborn soils, and 
can be ordered as an accessory. See “Assistance or Service” to 
order. The Cooktop Scraper uses razor blades. Store razor 
blades out of the reach of children.
Light to moderate soil
Paper towels or clean damp sponge:
Clean while the cooktop is still warm. You may want to wear 
oven mitts while doing so.
Sugary spills (jellies, candy, syrup)
Cooktop Scraper:
Clean while the cooktop is still warm. You may want to wear 
oven mitts while doing so.
Cooktop Polishing Creme and clean damp paper towel:
Clean as soon as cooktop has cooled down. Rub creme into 
surface with a damp paper towel or soft cloth. Continue 
rubbing until white film disappears.
Heavy soil, dark streaks, specks and discoloration
Cooktop Polishing Creme or non-abrasive cleanser:
Rub product into soil with a damp paper towel or soft cloth. 
Continue rubbing until white film disappears.
Burned-on soil
Cooktop Polishing Creme and Cooktop Scraper:
Rub creme into soil with damp paper towel. Hold scraper as 
flat as possible on surface and scrape. Repeat for stubborn 
spots. Polish entire cooktop with creme and paper towel.
Metal marks from aluminum and copper
Cooktop Polishing Creme:
Clean as soon as cooktop has cooled down. Rub creme into 
surface with a damp paper towel or soft cloth. Continue 
rubbing until white film disappears. The marks will not totally 
disappear but after many cleanings become less noticeable.
Tiny scratches and abrasions
Cooktop Polishing Creme:
Rub creme into surface with a damp paper towel or soft 
cloth. Continue rubbing until white film disappears. Scratches 
and abrasions do not affect cooking performance and after 
many cleanings become less noticeable.
