Care and Cleaning
CAUTION: DO NOT OPERATE THE BURNER WITHOUT ALL BURNER PARTS AND DRIP PANS
(IF SO EQUIPPED) IN PLACE.
Drip Pans (on some models)
Remove the grates and lift out the drip pans. Drip
pans can be cleaned in dishwasher or by hand.
To get rid of burned-on food, p
lace them in a
covered container (or plastic bag) with 1/4 cup
ammonia to loosen the soil. Then scrub with a soap-
filled scouring pad if necessary.
When replacing the drip pans, make sure they are in
the correct position.
CAUTION: Do not clean the drip pans in the self-
cleaning oven.

Standard Twin Burners
(on some models)
On models with standard twin burners, the cooktop
lifts up for easy access.
Turn all controls OFF before removing burner
parts and drip pans (if so equipped).
The burner grates and drip pans (if so equipped)
can be lifted off, making them easy to clean.
The holes in the surface
burners of your range
must be kept clean at all
times for proper ignition
and an even,
unhampered flame.
You should clean the
surface burners
routinely, especially
after bad spillovers,
which could clog these
holes. Wipe off surface
burners. If heavy
spillover occurs, remove the surface burners from
the range. Burners lift out for cleaning. Lift up the
cooktop and then lift out the surface burners.
To remove burned-on food, soak the surface burner
in a solution of mild liquid detergent and hot water.
Soak the surface burner for 20 to 30 minutes. For
more stubborn stains, use a cleanser like Soft Scrub
®
brand or Bon Ami
®
brand. Rinse well to remove any
traces of the cleanser that might clog the surface
burner openings. Do not use steel wool because it
will clog the surface burner openings and scratch the
surface burners. If the holes become clogged, clean
them with a sewing needle or twist tie.
Before putting the surface burner back, shake out
excess water and then dry it thoroughly by setting it in
a warm oven for 30 minutes. Then place it back in the
range, making sure it is properly seated and level.
Check the flame pattern of each burner. If the flames
are “jumpy” (not steady), clean the holes again with a
sewing needle or twist tie.
