Non-Self-Clean Oven Interior (on some models)
With proper care, the porcelain enamel
finish on the inside of the oven—top,
bottom, sides, back and inside of the
door—will stay new-looking for years.
Let the oven cool before cleaning. We
recommend that you wear rubber gloves
when cleaning the oven.
Soap and water will normally do the job.
Heavy spattering or spillovers may
require cleaning with a mild abrasive
cleaner. Soap-filled scouring pads may
also be used.
Do not allow food spills with a high sugar or acid
content (such as tomatoes, sauerkraut, fruit juices
or pie filling) to remain on the surface. They may
cause a dull spot even after cleaning.
Household ammonia may make the
cleaning job easier. Place 1/2 cup in a
shallow glass or pottery container in a
cold oven overnight.
The ammonia fumes will help loosen the
burned-on grease and food.
If necessary, you may use an oven cleaner.
Follow the package directions.
Do not spray oven cleaner on the electrical
controls and switches because it could cause a
short circuit and result in sparking or fire.
Do not allow a film from the cleaner to build up
on the temperature sensor—it could cause the
oven to heat improperly. (The sensor is located
at the top of the oven.) Carefully wipe the
sensor clean after each oven cleaning, being
careful not to move the sensor as a change in
its position could affect how the oven bakes.
Do not spray any oven cleaner on the oven
door, handles or any exterior surface of the
oven, cabinets or painted surfaces. The cleaner
can damage these surfaces.

Do not use a steel-wool pad; it will scratch
the surface.
To clean the stainless steel surface,
use warm sudsy water, a stainless steel
cleaner such as Kleen King
®
or an
all-purpose liquid or spray cleaner.
Always scrub in the direction of the
grain. Rinse thoroughly with a sponge
or cloth and clean water. Dry with a soft,
clean cloth.
After cleaning, use a stainless steel
polish, such as Stainless Steel Magic
®
,
Revere Copper and Stainless Steel
Cleaner
®
or Wenol All Purpose
Metal Polish
®
. Follow the product
instructions for cleaning the stainless
steel surface.
Stainless Steel Surfaces
(on some models)
Oven Heating Elements
Do not clean the bake element or the broil
element. Any soil will burn off when the
elements are heated.
To clean the oven floor, gently lift
the bake element. Clean with warm
soapy water.
Glass Surfaces
To clean the outside glass finish, use a
glass cleaner. Rinse and polish with a
dry cloth.
Do not allow the water or cleaner
to run down inside the oven door
while cleaning.
Painted Surfaces
Clean with soap and water or a vinegar
and water solution.
Do not use commercial oven cleaners,
cleansing powders, steel wool or harsh
abrasives on any painted surface.
