Cleaning Various Parts of Your Oven
Before cleaning any part of the oven, be sure all controls are turned off and the oven is cool.
Remove spills and any heavy soiling as soon as possible. Regular cleaning will reduce the number of major cleaning
later.
Surface Type Recommendation
Aluminum and Vinyl • Use hot, soapy water and a cloth. Dry with a clean cloth.
Painted and plastic control • Using a soft cloth, clean with mild dish detergent and water or a 50/50 solution of
knobs vinegar and water. Follow by rinsing the area with clean water; dry and polish
with a soft cloth. Glass cleaners may be used if sprayed on a soft cloth first. Do
not spray liquids directly on the oven control and display area. Do not use large
amounts of water on the control panel - excess water on the control area may
cause damage to the appliance. Do not use other liquid cleaners, abrasive
cleaners, scouring pads, or paper towels - they will damage the finish.

• Gentle scouring with a soapy scouring pad will remove most spots. Rinse with a
1:1 solution of clear water and ammonia. If necessary, cover difficult spots with
an ammonia-soaked paper towel for 30 to 40 minutes. Rinse with clean water
and a damp cloth, and then scrub with a soap-filled scouring pad. Rinse and wipe
dry with a clean cloth. Remove all cleaners or the porcelain may become

Oven racks • Oven racks must be removed from oven cavity. Clean by using a mild, abrasive
cleaner following manufacturer's instructions. Rinse with clean water and dry.

door. Rinse well. You may use a glass cleaner on the outside glass of the door.
