Range Cleaning

small area first.
2. Always rub metal finishes in the direction of the polish lines for
maximum effectiveness and to avoid marring the surface.
3. Use only clean soft cloths, sponges, paper towels, fibrous brushes,
plastic, non-metal or steel wool soap pads for cleaning and scouring,
as recommended on the chart.
4. Any part of this appliance can be cleaned with hot sudsy water.
When rinsing is required, rinse thoroughly.
