solution of clear water and ammonia. If necessary, cover difficult 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

DO NOT use spray oven cleaners on the cooktop.
Porcelain oven racks
Porcelain oven racks may be left in the oven during the Self-Clean cycle. If further
cleaning is required, remove the racks after the oven has cooled & clean using a mild
non-abrasive cleaner following manufacturer's instructions. Rinse with clean water and
let dry. After the Self-Clean cycle is done and the oven has cooled, rub the sides of the
