Servicing
and Cleaning
Turn off the range line fuse or circuit breakers at the main
power source, and turn off the manual gas shut-off valve.
Make sure the range is cold. Remove the service drawer
(warmer drawer on some models) and open the oven door.
Lift the range at the front and slide it out of the cut-out
opening without creating undue strain on the flexible gas
conduit. Make sure not to pinch the flexible gas conduit at
the back of the range when replacing the unit into the cut-
out opening. Replace the drawer, close the door and switch
on the electrical power and gas to the range.
