Burner drip pans (bowls)
In most cases you will need to replace the drip pans and bowls under the grates on a gas range or stove as well as under the heating element of the electric stove or range every couple of years. This is due to the fact that if those are stained, you will be unable to clean them completely.
Glass cooktops and windows
Remember that you should clean ceramic and glass cooktops only with products that were specifically manufactured for that same purpose.
You can clean your glass oven windows with any oven glass cleaner, but note that it is dangerous to clean hot glass surfaces.
Knob care
It is absolutely safe to clean your knobs on the range or oven using only a little dish detergent as well as a damp rag. However, in case the lettering and the numbers have worn away, it is best to replace the knobs to begin with.
Light bulbs
You can always replace light bulbs in the oven or range, but you may have to remove the glass covering first in order to reach it. The majority of interior oven lights need a universal 40 watt appliance bulb.
Oven
If the oven is self-cleaning, it is best to read the manual first in order to learn how this feature works. It functions through heating the interior of the oven to the temperature so hot that it can incinerate the residue inside the oven. In most cases, you should avoid cleaning a self-cleaning oven’s interiors with a spray cleaner. The owner’s manual will provide you with more accurate info.
