CARE & CLEANING (Cleaning Chart)
Cleaning various parts of your appliance
Before cleaning any part of the appliance, be sure all controls are turned off and the appliance is COOL. REMOVE
SPILLOVERS AND HEAVY SOILING AS SOON AS POSSIBLE. REGULAR CLEANING WILL REDUCE THE NUMBER OF
MAJOR CLEANING LATER.
Surfaces How to Clean
Aluminum (trim pieces) &
Vinyl
Use hot, soapy water and a cloth. Dry with a clean cloth.
Glass, Painted and Plastic
Body Parts, Control Knobs
& Decorative Trim Pieces
Using a soft cloth, clean with mild dish detergent and water or a 50/50 solution of vinegar
and water. Follow by rinsing the area with clean water; dry and polish with a soft cloth.
Glass cleaners may be used if sprayed on a soft cloth fi rst. DO NOT spray liquids directly
on the control pad and display area. Do not use large amounts of water on the control
panel - excess water on the control area may cause damage to the appliance. Do not
use other liquid cleaners, abrasive cleaners, scouring pads, or paper towels - they will
damage the fi nish. To remove control knobs, turn to the OFF position; grasp fi rmly and
pull straight off the shaft. To replace knobs after cleaning, line up the fl at sides of both
the knob and the shaft; then push the knob into place.
Porcelain Enamel
Burner Grates, Cooktop
Surface, Below Cooktop,
Broiler Pan & Insert (some
models), Door Liner, Oven
Bottom & Burner Drip Pans
Clean burner grates, broiler pan and insert (some models) in the dishwasher and dry
upon removal. If soils are not removed, follow the cooktop cleaning instructions below.
Gentle scouring with a soapy scouring pad will remove most spots. Rinse with a
1:1 solution of clear water and ammonia. If necessary, cover diffi cult spots with an
ammonia-soaked paper towel for 30 to 40 minutes. Rinse with clean water and a damp
cloth, then scrub with a soap-fi lled scouring pad. Rinse and wipe dry with a clean cloth.
Remove all cleaners or the porcelain may become damaged during future heating. DO
NOT use spray oven cleaners on the cooktop.
Stainless Steel
Oven Door & Drawer Front
Panel and Decorative Trim
Clean with hot, soapy water and dishcloth. Rinse with clean water and cloth. Do
not use cleaners with high concentrations of chlorides or chlorines. Do not
use harsh scrubbing cleaners. Only use kitchen cleaners that are especially made for
cleaning stainless steel. Always be sure to rinse the cleaners off from the surface as
bluish stains may occur during heating that cannot be removed.
Oven Racks Remove racks. See “To remove and to replace an oven rack” under Oven vent(s) and
racks. Use a mild, abrasive cleaner, following manufacturer’s instructions. Rinse with
clean water and dry. After cleaning the racks, rub the sides of the racks with wax paper
or a cloth containing a small amount of baby oil or salad oil (this will make the racks
glide easier into the rack positions).

CLEAN DOOR
Use soap & water to thoroughly clean the top, sides and front of the oven door. Rinse
well. You may use a glass cleaner on the outside glass of the oven door. DO NOT
immerse the door in water. DO NOT spray or allow water or the glass cleaner to
enter the door vents. DO NOT use oven cleaners, cleaning powders or any harsh
abrasive cleaning materials on the outside of the oven door.
DO NOT clean the oven door gasket. The oven door gasket is made of a woven
material, on Self-Cleaning models, which is essential for a good seal. Care should be
taken not to rub, damage or remove this gasket.
