Care and cleaning of the range.
Cleaning the Oven Bottom
The oven bottom has a porcelain enamel finish.
To make cleaning easier, protect the oven
bottom from excessive spillovers. This is
particularly important when baking a
fruit pie or other foods with high acid
content. Hot fruit fillings or foods that
are acidic in content, such as tomatoes
or sauerkraut, and sauces with vinegar
or lemon juice, may cause pitting and
damage to the porcelain enamel surface.
To protect the oven bottom surface, place
a piece of aluminum foil slightly larger
than the baking dish on the shelf below
to catch any boilovers. It should not
completely cover the shelf as this
would cause uneven heat in the oven.
Aluminum foil should not be placed
on the oven bottom.
If a spillover does occur on the oven
bottom, allow the oven to cool first. You
can clean the bottom with soap and
water, a mild abrasive cleanser, soap-filled
steel wool pads or an oven cleaner
following package directions.
Removable Oven Bottom
First remove the shelves from the oven.
The oven bottom lifts from the front.
Grasp each side of the oven bottom, push
it to the back of the oven, lift upward
from the front until it is clear—lift it to
remove from the front.
NOTE: If the oven bottom is replaced incorrectly,
it may warp and cause undesirable baking results.
Broiler Compartment
The broiler pan is held in place by the
broiler side supports.
To remove the broiler pan:
Gently pull forward on the drop
down broiler door.
Pull the broiler pan forward on the
broiler side supports. Grasp the
sides of the broiler pan and remove
it from the broiler compartment.
To replace the broiler pan:
Place the broiler pan on the broiler
side supports and push it all the way
into the broiler compartment.
Close the broiler door.
