Care and cleaning of the range.
Lift-Off Oven Door
To remove the door, open it a few inches to
the special stop position that will hold the door
open. Grasp firmly on each side and lift the door
straight up and off the hinges.
NOTE:
To replace the door, make sure the hinges are
in the special stop position. Position the slots
in the bottom of the door squarely over the
hinges. Then lower the door slowly and evenly
over both hinges at the same time. If the hinges
snap back against the oven frame, pull them
back out.
To clean the inside of the door:
n Do not allow excess water to run into any
holes or slots in the door .
n Because the area inside the gasket is cleaned
during the self-clean cycle, you do not need
to clean this by hand. Any soap left on the
liner causes additional stains when the oven
is heated.
n The area outside the gasket can be cleaned
with a soap-filled scouring pad.
To clean the outside of the door:
n Use soap and water to thoroughly clean the
top, sides and front of the oven door. Rinse
well. You may also use a glass cleaner to
clean the glass on the outside of the door.
n Spillage of marinades, fruit juices, tomato
sauces and basting materials containing
acids may cause discoloration and should be
wiped up immediately. When the surface is
cool, clean and rinse.
n Do not use oven cleaners, cleansing powders
or harsh abrasives on the outside of the door.
Oven Bottom
The oven bottom has a porcelain-enamel finish.
To make cleaning easier, protect the oven
bottom from excessive spillovers by placing a
cookie sheet on the rack below the rack you are
cooking on. This is particularly important when
baking a fruit pie or other foods with a high acid
content. Hot fruit fillings or other foods that are
highly acidic (such as tomatoes, sauerkraut, and
sauces with vinegar or lemon juice) may cause
pitting and damage to the porcelain-enamel
surface and should be wiped up immediately.
We don’t recommend using aluminum foil on
the oven bottom. It can affect airflow if the holes
are blocked and it can concentrate heat at the
bottom of the oven, resulting in poor baking
performance.
To clean up spillovers, use soap and water, an
abrasive cleaner or soap-filled scouring pad.
Rinse well to remove any soap before self-
cleaning.
Lift the door straight up and off
the hinges.
The gasket is designed with a gap
at the bottom to allow for proper
air circulation.
Do not rub or clean the door
gasket— it has an extremely low
resistance to abrasion.
If you notice the gasket becoming
worn, frayed or damaged in any
way or if it has become displaced
on the door, you should have it
replaced.
