Care & Cleaning
General cleaning
Remove soils using hot, soapy water. Do not allow food
spills with a high sugar or acid content (such as mill<,
tomatoes, saukerkraut, fruit juices or pie filling) to remain
on the surface as they may cause a dull spot even after
cleaning. Remove spillovers and heavy soiling as soon as
possible. Regular cleaning will reduce the effort required for
major cleaning laten
Follow fhese cleaning precautions:
° Allow the oven to cool before cleaning.
° Wear rubber gloves when cleaning the appliance
manually.
NEVER cover any slots, holes or passag-
es in the oven bottom or cover an entire oven rack wlih
materials such as aluminum foil. Doing so blocks air flow
through the oven and may cause CARBON MONOXIDE
poisoning. Aluminum loll linings may trap heat, causing a
fire hazard.
Cleaning porcelaln enamel oven and broller drawer:
The oven interior is porcelain on steel, it is safe to clean
using oven cleaners.
Adhere to the following precautions when using
spray oven cleaners:
• DO NOT spray cleaner on the electrical controls or
switches because it could cause a short circuit and
result in sparking or fire.
DO NOT allow a film from the cleaner to build up on
the temperature sensing bulb; it could cause the oven
to heat improperly. The bulb is located in the rear of
the oven. Carefully wipe the bulb clean after each oven
cleaning, being careful not to move the bulb. A change
in its position could affect how the oven bakes. Avoid
bending the bulb and capillary tube.
DO NOT spray any cleaner on the oven door trim or
gasket, broiler drawer glides, handles or any exterior
surfaces of the range, plastic or painted surfaces. The
cleaner can damage these surfaces.
Cleaning oven bottom
The oven bottom is porcelain enamel and can be removed
for easier cleaning.
Gentle scouring with a soapy nonabrasive plastic scrubbing
pad will remove most spots. Rinse with a 1:1 solution of
clear water and ammonia.
If necessary, cover difiqcult spots with an ammonia-soaked
paper towel for 30 to 40 minutes. Rinse with dean water
and a damp cloth, and then scrub with a soap-filled non-
abrasive scouring pad. Rinse and wipe dry with a clean
cloth.
Ammonia must be rinsed before operating
the oven. Provide adequate ventilation.
To remove heavy soil:
1. Allow a dish of ammonia to sit in the oven overnight
or for several hours with the oven door closed. Clean
softened dirt spots using hob soapy water. Rinse well
with water and a clean cloth.
2. If soil remains, use a nonabrasive scouring pad or a
nonabrasive cleaner. If necessary, use an oven cleaner
following manufacturer's instructions. DO NOT mix
ammonia with other cleaners.
3. Clean any soil from the oven frame, the door liner
outside the oven door gasket and the small area at the
front center of the oven bottom. Clean with hot, soapy
water. Rinse well using clean water and a cloth.
