52 MAINTENANCE
b Do hand clean door
Broiler Pan and Grid
• Do not store a soiled broiler pan or grid
anywhere in the range.
• Do not clean the broiler pan or grid in a self
cleaning mode. (Available on some models)
• Remove the grid from the pan. Carefully pour
out the grease from the pan into a proper
container.
• Wash and rinse the broiler pan and grid in hot
water with a soap-filled or plastic scouring pad.
• If food has burned on, sprinkle the grid with
cleaner while hot and cover with wet paper
towels or a dishcloth. Soaking the pan will
remove burned-on foods.
• Both the broiler pan and grid may be cleaned
with a commercial oven cleaner or in the
dishwasher.
Oven Racks
Remove the oven racks before operating the Self
Clean cycle (on some models) and EasyClean.
1 Clean with a mild, abrasive cleaner.
• Food spilled into the tracks could cause the
racks to become stuck.
2 Rinse with clean water and dry.
NOTE
• For models with Self Clean function:
- If the racks are cleaned using the Self Clean
cycle (not recommended), the color will turn
slightly blue and the finish will become dull.
After the Self Clean cycle is complete, and the
oven has cooled, rub the sides of the racks
with wax paper or a cloth containing a small
amount of oil. This will make the racks glide
more easily into the rack tracks.
Cooktop Surface
Glass-Ceramic Cooktop
CAUTION
• If any sugar or food containing sugar spills, or plastic or foil melts on the cooktop, remove the material
IMMEDIATELY with a metal razor scraper while the cooking surface is still hot to avoid the risk of damage
to the glass-ceramic surface. When used correctly, the scraper will not damage the cooktop surface. For
your safety, please use an oven mitt or pot holder while scraping the hot cooking surface.
• If water or food containing water spills, remove the spill IMMEDIATELY with a dry paper towel.
• Do not use scrub pads or abrasive cleaning pads. They may damage your cooktop surface.
• For your safety, wear an oven mitt or pot holder while using a scraper on the hot cooking surface.
Use ceramic cooktop cleaner on the glass cooktop. Other creams may not be as effective or may scratch,
damage or stain the cooktop surface. Wait for the cooktop to cool completely before using cooktop
cleaning cream.
To maintain and protect the surface of the glass cooktop, follow these steps:
1 Before using the cooktop for the first time, clean it with a ceramic cooktop cleaner. This helps protect
the top and makes cleanup easier.
2 Shake the cleaning cream well. Apply a few drops of cleaner directly to the cooktop.
3 Use a paper towel to clean the entire cooktop surface.
