or cloth immediately after the Clean cycle is complete. Much

cups (14 oz [414 mL]) of water will remain
in the oven after the cycle is completed. If additional soils
remain, leave a small amount of water in the oven bottom
to assist with the cleaning.
7. If any soils remain, remove them with a non-scratch scrubbing
sponge or plastic scraper. Additional Clean cycles may be run
to help remove the stubborn soils.
IMPORTANT: Do not use oven cleaners. The use of chemicals,
including commercial oven cleaners or metal scouring pads,
may cause permanent damage to the porcelain surface of the
oven interior.
NOTES:
■ The range should be level to ensure that the entire surface
of the bottom of the oven cavity is covered by water at the
beginning of the Clean cycle.
■ For best results, use distilled or filtered water. Tap water
may leave mineral deposits on the oven bottom.
■ Before removing the residual water and loosened soils at the
end of the Clean cycle, insert a cloth or paper towel between
the lower edge of the oven door and the front frame to keep
water from spilling onto the front of the range and the floor.
■ Soil baked on through several cooking cycles will be more
difficult to remove with the Clean cycle.
■ Nonabrasive scrub sponges or eraser-style cleaning pads
(without cleaners) can be effective for cleaning the oven cavity
walls, oven door, and oven bottom for difficult soils. For best
results, moisten the pads and sponges before use.
■ Run an additional Clean cycle for stubborn soils.

otherwise noted.
EXTERIOR PORCELAIN ENAMEL SURFACES

Food spills containing acids, such as vinegar and tomato, should
be cleaned as soon as the entire range is cool. These spills may
affect the finish.
Cleaning Method:
■ Glass cleaner, mild liquid cleaner, or nonabrasive
scrubbing pad:
Gently clean around the model/serial/rating plate
because scrubbing may remove numbers.

may stain.

1. Remove food/residue with the Cooktop Scraper.
■ For best results, use the Cooktop Scraper while the
cooktop is still warm but not hot to the touch. It is
recommended to wear an oven mitt while scraping
the warm cooktop.
■ Hold the Cooktop Scraper at approximately a 45° angle
against the glass surface and scrape the residue. It will
be necessary to apply pressure in order to remove the
residue.
Allow the cooktop to cool down completely before proceeding
to Step 2.
