Cleaning the Oven-Door Gasket
This gasket helps trap hot air in the oven by sealing the seam around the front of the oven chamber when the
door is closed. The gasket needs occasional cleaning to remove cooking residue that may compromise the seal
• Be extremely careful in cleaning the fragile gasket to avoid compromising its ability to form a tight seal
around the front of the oven chamber.
• Do not rub, scrub, or pinch the gasket; do not use harsh or abrasive cleaners and cleaning tools.
1. Dab the door gasket with a soft cloth moistened with a mild-soap and water solution.
2. Rinse the gasket with a soft cloth moistened with clean water.
Cleaning the Oven-Rack Supports
• The oven-rack supports are screwed to the oven walls and should not be removed for cleaning.
• The supports will be cleaned during self-cleaning. Wipe them as you would the oven-chamber walls after a
self-cleaning cycle. (See Using Self-Clean Mode, Pg. 36.)
Cleaning the Oven Racks
• Do not self-clean the oven racks. Self-cleaning discolors the racks and makes them hard to slide.
•
glide mechanism. Carefully wipe a GlideRack mechanism with a damp cloth.
• For heavy soil, use a scouring pad. (Clean with soap and water, or a solution of ½ cup of ammonia to 1 gallon
of water.)
Cleaning the Meat-Temperature Probe
The probe has silicone handles, a wire cable, a plug, and a stainless-steel skewer.
Do not immerse the probe in water. Doing so will likely damage the probe's electronic circuitry.
1. Clean the skewer with a plastic scouring pad and hot, soapy water.
2. Gently wipe the cable with a cloth moistened with soapy water.
3. Wipe the handles and plug with a soft sponge soaked with warm, soapy water.
4. Carefully wipe soap with a damp cloth, keeping water away from the probe's electrical circuitry.
5. Thoroughly dry all parts of the probe with a clean, soft cloth.
Cleaning the Oven-Light Lens
1. Softly rub the oven-light lens with the plastic-scrubber side of a sponge moistened with warm, soapy water.
2. With a clean, soft cloth moistened with clean water, rinse the lens.
3. With a soft, lint-free cloth, fully dry the lens.
