Consumer Support Troubleshooting Tips Care and Cleaning Operating Instructions Safety Instructions Care and cleaning of the range. Receptacle Socket Bulb Tab Glass cover Oven Light Bulbs NOTE: The glass cover should be removed only when cold. Wearing latex gloves may offer a better grip. CAUTION: Before replacing your oven light bulb, disconnect the electrical power to the range at the main fuse or circuit breaker panel. Be sure to let the light cover and bulb cool completely. For your safety, do not touch a hot bulb with bare hands or a damp cloth. To remove: Turn the glass cover counterclockwise 1/4 turn until the tabs of the glass cover clear the grooves of the socket. Using gloves or a dry cloth, remove the bulb by pulling it straight out. To replace: Use a new 130-volt halogen bulb, not to exceed 50 watts. Using gloves or a dry cloth, remove the bulb from its packaging. Do not touch the bulb with bare fingers. Receptacle Use gloves or cloth Push the bulb straight into the receptacle all the way. Place the tabs of the glass cover into the grooves of the socket. Turn the glass cover clockwise 1/4 turn. For improved lighting inside the oven, clean the glass cover frequently using a wet cloth. This should be done when the oven is completely cool. Reconnect electrical power to the oven. Oven Heating Elements Do not clean the broil element. Any soil will burn off when the element is heated. Clean the oven floor with warm, soapy water. On some models, the bake element is not exposed and is under the oven floor. If spillovers, residue or ash accumulate on the oven floor, wipe up before self-cleaning. Wipe up heavy soil on the oven bottom. 34
