Care and cleaning of the oven.
It’s a good idea to wipe the control panel
after each use. Clean with mild soap and
water or vinegar and water, rinse with
clean water and polish dry with a soft
cloth. When cleaning, the control panel
should be at room temperature and not
in direct sunlight.
Do not use abrasive cleansers, strong
liquid cleansers, plastic scouring pads or
oven cleaners on the control panel—they
will damage the finish. A 50/50 solution
of vinegar and hot water works well.
Be sure electrical power is off and all surfaces are cool before cleaning any part of the oven.
How to Remove Protective Shipping Film and Packaging Tape
Carefully grasp a corner of the protective
shipping film with your fingers and slowly
peel it from the appliance surface. Do
not use any sharp items to remove the
film. Remove all of the film before using
the appliance for the first time.
To assure no damage is done to the
finish of the product, the safest way to
remove the adhesive from packaging
tape on new appliances is an application
of a household liquid dishwashing
detergent. Apply with a soft cloth and
allow to soak.
NOTE: The adhesive must be removed from all
parts. It cannot be removed if it is baked on.
Oven Racks
Clean the oven racks with an abrasive
cleanser or steel wool.
After cleaning, rinse the racks with clean
water and dry with a clean cloth.
Porcelain Oven Interior
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 steel wool pads
may also be used.
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 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.
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.
