Care and Cleaning
(See Cleaning Guide)
Proper
care
und cleaning are
important so
your oven will give
yoLI efficient
and
satisfactory
service. F
O
I1
OW
these directions
carefully in caring for your oven to
assure
safe
and proper maintenance.
Porcelain Oven Interior
With proper care, the porcelain
enamel
t“inish
on the inside of the
oven-top, bottom, sides, back and
inside of’ the door-will stay
new-
Iooking
for years.
Let
oven cool before cleaning. We
recommend that you wear rubber
~IOVeS
when
cleaning the oven.
Soap and water will normally do
the
job. Heavy spattering or
spillovers may require cleaning
with a mild abrasive cleanser.
Soapy, wet metal pads may also be
used.
Do
not
allow
food spills with
a
high sugw- or acid content (such
as m i
I
k, tomatoes, sauerkraut, fruit
.juiccs
or pie filling) to remain on
the
surftice.
They may cause a dull
spot
even
after
cieani]yg.
Household ammonia may make the
cleuning
job easier. Place 1/2 cup in
d
shallow
glass
or pottery container
in
u
cold
oven
overnight. The
ammonia fumes will help loosen
the
burned-on grease and food.
If
necessury,
you may use a
commercial oven cleaner. Follow
package directions.
Removable Oven Bottom
The oven bottom can be removed
to make cleaning easier after heavy
spillovers and to enable you to
reach the oven burner.
-
——
To remove:
1. Slide the tab at the center front
of the oven bottom to the left.
2. Lift the oven bottom up and out.
To replace:
1.
Slip the oven bottom into the
oven so the tabs in the rear of the
oven bottom fit into the slots in the
oven back.
2. Lower the front of the oven
bottom into place and slide the
front tab to the right to lock the
oven bottom into place.
The oven bottom has a porcelain
enamel finish. To make cleaning
easier, protect the oven bottom
from excessive spillovers. This is
particularly important when baking
a fruit pie or other
f’oods
with high
acid content. Hot
f-ruit
f’illings
or
foods that are acid in content such
as milk, tomato or sauerkraut, and
sauces with vinegar or lemon juice,
may cause pitting and
damage
to
the porcelain enamel surface.
To protect the oven bottom
surface, place a piece of’ aluminum
foil slightly larger than
the
baking
dish or a small cookie sheet on a
lower shelf or under the baking
dish to catch any spillovers. It
should not completely cover the
shelf as this would cause uneven
heat in the oven. Aluminum
foil should not be placed on
the
oven bottom.
If a
spillover
does occur on the
oven
bottom allow the oven to cool first.
You
can
clean the bottom with soap
and water,
a
mild abrasive cleanser
or soap-filled abrasive
pads.
