RANGE MAINTENANCE AND
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.
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 range is cool. These spills may
affect the finish.
Cleaning Method:
■ Glass cleaner, mild liquid cleaner, or nonabrasive scrubbing
pad: Gently clean around the model/serial/rating plate because
scrubbing may remove numbers.
■ Affresh

NOTE: To avoid damage to stainless steel surfaces, do not use
soap-filled scouring pads, abrasive cleaners, Cooktop Cleaner,
steel-wool pads, gritty washcloths, or abrasive paper towels.

(not included):
See the Quick Start Guide for ordering information.
METALLIC PAINT (on some models)
Do not use abrasive cleaners, cleaners with bleach, rust
removers, ammonia, or sodium hydroxide (lye) because paint
surface may stain.
PORCELAIN-COATED GRATES AND CAPS
Food spills containing acids, such as vinegar and tomato, should
be cleaned as soon as the cooktop, grates and caps are cool.
These spills may affect the finish.
To avoid chipping, do not bang grates, and caps against each
other or hard surfaces such as cast iron cookware.
Do not reassemble caps on burners while wet. Do not clean in the
Self-Cleaning cycle.
Cleaning Method:
■ Nonabrasive plastic scrubbing pad and mildly abrasive
cleanser: Clean as soon as cooktop, grates, and caps are
cool.
■ Dishwasher (grates only, not caps):
Use the most-aggressive cycle. Cooked-on soils should be
soaked or scrubbed before going into a dishwasher.
Although the burner grates are durable, they may lose their
shine and/or discolor when washed in a dishwasher.
■ Gas Grate and Drip Pan Cleaner Part Number 31617 (not
included):
See the Quick Start Guide for ordering information.
SURFACE BURNERS
Food spills containing acids, such as vinegar and tomato, should
be cleaned as soon as the cooktop, grates, and caps are cool.
These spills may affect the finish.
To avoid chipping, do not bang grates and caps against each
other or hard surfaces such as cast iron cookware.
Do not reassemble caps on burners while wet.
Do not clean in the Self-Cleaning cycle.

To avoid damage to the cooktop controls, do not use steel wool,
abrasive cleansers, or oven cleaner.
To avoid damage, do not soak knobs. When replacing knobs,
make sure knobs are in the Off position.
On some models, do not remove seals under knobs.
Cleaning Method:

remove
CONTROL PANEL AND OVEN DOOR EXTERIOR
To avoid damage to the control panel, do not use abrasive
cleaners, steel-wool pads, gritty washcloths, or abrasive paper
towels.

OVEN RACKS
Cleaning Method:
■ Steel-wool pad
■ For racks that have discolored and are harder to slide, a light
coating of vegetable oil applied to the rack guides will help
them slide.
■ Dishwasher (steam rack water reservoir only, not racks):
Although the water reservoir is durable, it may lose its shine
and/or discolor when washed in a dishwasher.
STORAGE/WARMING DRAWER (on some models)
Check that storage/warming drawer is cool and empty before
cleaning.
Cleaning Method:
■ Mild detergent
OVEN CAVITY
Do not use oven cleaners.
Food spills should be cleaned when oven cools. At high
temperatures, foods react with porcelain. Staining, etching, pitting,
or faint white spots can result.
Cleaning Method:
■ Self-Cleaning cycle: See the “Self-Cleaning Cycle” or “Clean
Cycle” section first.
