Control Panel and Knobs
It’s a good idea to wipe the control panel after each
use. Clean with mild soap

water or
vine&ar

water, rinse with clean water and polish dry with a
soft cloth.
Do not use abrasive cleansers, strong liquid
cleansers, plastic scouring pads or oven cleansers
on the control panel—they
will damage the finish.
A 50/50 solution of vinegar and hot water solution
works well.
The control knobs may be removed for easier

Groove

Stetn
The knob stem has a groove in each side. The groove
on one side has a spring clip. The other groove is
clear (see illustration). When removing the knob, it
may be helpful to slip a thin cloth (such as a
handkerchief) or a piece of string under and around
the knob edge and pull up. Check the inside of the
knob and find the molded rib.
Wash the knobs in soap and water or a vinegar and
hot water solution but do not soak.
Replace the knob by fitting the molded rib inside the
knob into the
clear groove on the stem.
