Self-Cleaning Oven (some models)
Refer to your Electonic Oven Control Guide
During the self-cleaning cycle, the outside of the wall oven can
become very hot to the touch. DO NOT leave small children unattended near the
appliance. Use care when opening the oven door after self-cleaning cycle. Stand to
the side of the oven when opening the door to allow hot air or steam to escape.
Easy Clean Oven (some models)
Porcelain has a smooth finish and is a type of glass fused to metal. Oven cleaners
can be used on all interior oven surfaces.
General Cleaning
Remove soils using hot, soapy water. Do not allow food spills with a high sugar or
acid content (such as milk, tomatoes, saukerkraut, fruit juices or pie filling) to remain
on the surface as they may cause a dull spot even after cleaning.
To Remove Heavy Soil
1. Allow a dish of ammonia to sit in the oven overnight or for several hours with
the oven door closed. Clean softened spots using hot, soapy water. Rinse well
with water and a clean cloth.
2. If soil remains, use a soap-filled scouring pad or a nonabrasive cleaner. If
neccessary, use an oven cleaner following manufacturer's instructions. DO NOT
mix ammonia with other cleaners.
3. Clean any soil from the oven frame, the door liner outside the oven door gasket,
the small area at the front center of the oven bottom and the oven vent exit
(located below the backguard). Clean with hot, soapy water. Rinse well using
clean water and a cloth.
Adhere to the following precautions when using oven cleaners:
1. DO NOT spray on the electrical controls or switches because it could cause a
short circuit and result in sparking or fire.
2. DO NOT allow a film from the cleaner to build up on the temperature sensing
bulb; it could cause the oven to heat improperly. (The bulb is located in the rear
of the oven.) Carefully wipe the bulb clean after each oven cleaning, being
careful not to move the bulb. A change in its position could affect how the oven
bakes. Avoid bending the bulb and capillary tube.
3. DO NOT spray any cleaner on the oven door trim or gasket, handles or any
exterior surfaces of the range, wood or painted surfaces. The cleaner can
damage these surfaces.
Cleaning the Oven Bottom
The oven bottom in porcelain enamel oven models can be removed for
cleaning. See "To Remove and Replace Oven Bottom" under General Cleaning.
Clean using hot, soapy water, a mild abrasive cleanser, a soap-filled abrasive pad
or oven cleaner following manufacturer's instructions.
Oven Cleaning (continued)
Adhere to the following cleaning
precautions:
•Allow the oven to cool before cleaning.
• Wear rubber gloves when cleaning the
range manually.
REMOVE SPILLOVERS AND HEAVY SOIL-
ING AS SOON AS POSSIBLE. REGULAR
CLEANINGS WILL REDUCE THE NUM-
BER OF MAJOR CLEANINGS LATER.
Ammonia must be rinsed
before operating the oven. Provide
adequate ventilation.
DO NOT line the oven
walls, bottom, racks or any other part of
the range with aluminum foil. Doing so
will destroy heat distribution, produce
poor baking results and cause permanent
damage to the oven interior (aluminum
foil will melt to the interior surface of the
oven).
