General Care & Cleaning
Before cleaning any part of the oven, be sure all controls are turned OFF and the oven is COOL. REMOVE SPILLOVERS AND
HEAVY SOILING AS SOON AS POSSIBLE. REGULAR CLEANINGS NOW WILL REDUCE THE EXTENT AND DIFFICULTY OF
MAJOR CLEANING LATER.

&Vlnyl cleaners, ammonia, powdered cleaners or commercial oven cleaner. They can scratch and
discolor aluminum.

they can scratch.

remove, pull each knob straight off: the shaft. Clean using hob soapy water and a dishcloth.
Rinse with clean water using a dishcloth. Be sure to squeeze excess water from the cloth
before wiping the panel; especially when wiping around the controls. Excess water in or
around the controls may cause damage to the appliance. To replace knobs after cleaning,
line up the fiat sides of both the knob and the shaft; then push the knob into place.
Oven Racks
Clean stainless steel with hot, soapy water and a dishcloth. Rinse with dean water and a
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 from the surface as bluish stains may
occur during heating that cannot be removed.
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 dimcuit spots with an ammonia-soaked
paper towel for 30 to 40 minutes. Rinse with clean water and a damp cloth, and then scrub
with a soap-filled 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.
Porcelain Coated Racks:
Some ovens come with lubricated porcelain oven racks, which can remain in the oven during
the self-clean cycle. Do not clean this vegetable oil lubrication off: the racks. It is important
that the sides of the oven racks always have a light coating of vegetable oil. To maintain
optimal rack performance, re-apply a thin layer of vegetable oil to the sides of the rack
after every self-clean cycle or when the rack becomes dimcuit to slide.
Oven 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 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.
