Care and CBeaning (continued)
Speciat Care of the Continuous-CJeaning
Oven Bnterior (on somemodels)
The Continuous-Cleaning Over1 cleans itself while
cooking. The oven walls are finished with a special
coating that cannot be cleaned in the usual manner
with soap, detergents, steel wool pads, commercial
oven cleaners, coarse abrasive pads or coarse brush-
es. Use of such cleansers and/or the use of oven
sprays will cause permanent damage.
The special coating is a porous ceramic material,
which is dark in color and feels slightly rough to the
touch. If magnified, the surface would appear as
peaks, valleys and sub-surface "tunnels." This rough
finish tends to prevent grease spatters from forming
little beads or droplets that run down the side walls of
a hard-surface oven liner, leaving unsightly streaks
that require hand cleaning. Instead, when spatter hits
the porous finish, it is dispersed and partially
absorbed. This spreading action increases the expo-
sure of oven soil to heated air and makes it somewhat
less noticeable.
Soil may not disappear completely and at some
time after extended usage, stains may appear that
cannot be removed.
The special coating works best on small amounts
of spatter. It does not work well with larger spills,
especially sugars, egg or dairy mixtures. The oven
bottom does not have the continuous cleaning oven
coating and can be removed and cleaned with a com-
mercial oven cleaner.
This special coating is not used on the oven
shelves, oven bottom or the inside of the oven
door. Remove these to clean with a commercial
oven cleaner to prevent damaging the Continuous-
Cleaning Oven coating.
Make sure the oven bottom is in place before
you turn the oven on for any reason.
Use care in removing and replacing the oven
bottom and shelves and in placing and removing
dishes and food to avoid scratching, rubbing or other-
wise damaging the porous finish on the oven walls.

surface, as soon as the oven has cooled; remove :
as much of the soil as possible using: a small:;:
amount of water and a stiff-bristle nylon brush. Use:
water sparingly and change it frequently, keeping itl
as clean as possible, and be sure to blot it up with
paper towels, cloths or sponges. Do not rub or
scrub with paper towels, cloths or sponges; since
they will leave unsightly lint on the oven finish. If
water leaves a white ring on the finish as it dries;
apply water again and blot it with a clean sponge,
starting at the edge of the ring and working toward
the center.
The oven bottom has a porcelain enamel finish:
The oven bottom comes out for cleaning away from
the Continuous-Cleaning Oven.
The inside of the oven door has a porcelain enam-
el finish. The oven door lifts off for cleaning away
from the Continuous-Cleaning Oven. For instructions
on how to clean the inside of the oven door refer: to
the Lift-Off Oven Door section.
Do not use soap, detergent, steel wool pads,
commercial oven cleaner, silicone: oven
sprays, coarse pads or coarse brushes on the
porous surface. These products will spot, clog
and damage the porous surface and reduce its
ability to work.
Do not scrape the porous surface with a knife
or spatula--they could permanently damage the
finish.
