THE LIFE OF THE TOP in comparison to the general life expectancy of the range
itself.
It is very important that the burner be dry before replacing it in the range. A wet
burner will not allow the gas to ignite properly. This could result in a build-up of gas
which could result in an explosion or fire.
Aluminum Foil in Oven and Broiler
Aluminium foil when used improperly is a cause of many range fires. Make certain
that vents or air openings aren’t covered by the foil. If the vents located along the
sides of the oven bottom are blocked, poor cooking will result.
Never cover a rack completely. A piece of foil slightly larger than the cookware can
be placed on the rack beneath the cookware.
Remove and discard aluminum foil after each use. This will help prevent greases and
spilled food from accumulating and becoming a fire hazard.
Cleaners and Cleaning Materials
Do not use harsh cleaners or degreasers on or around functional parts (valves,
controls, etc., or aluminum tubing). This will damage or drastically reduce the life of
the part.
Use only a mild solution of soap and water on backguards, aluminum control
panels and painted surfaces. Never use harsh abrasives or cleaning powders that
may scratch or mar the surface. Make sure the cleaners and cleaning materials are
suitable for use on the area to be cleaned. Always keep cleaning materials in a safe
place. Never use a sharp metal scraper to clean glass, porcelain, or painted surfaces.
