Cleaning and Maintenance
WARNING
BURN OR ELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZARD
Make sure all controls are OFF and oven is COOL
before cleaning. Failure to do so can result in burns or
electrical shock.
Stainless Steel Parts
All stainless steel body parts should be wiped regularly with hot soapy water at the end of each cooling period and with a liquid cleaner
designed for that material when soapy water will not do the job. DO NOT use steel wool, abrasive cloths, cleansers, or powders. If
necessary, scrape stainless steel to remove encrusted materials, soak the area with hot towels to loosen the material, then use a wooden or
nylon spatula or scraper. DO NOT use a metal knife, spatula, or any other metal tool to scrape stainless steel. DO NOT permit citrus or
tomato juice to remain on stainless steel surface, as citric acid will permanently discolor stainless steel. Wipe up any spills immediately.
Glass Surfaces
Clean with detergent and warm water. Glass cleaner can be used to remove fingerprints. If using glass cleaner ammonia, make sure
that it does not run down on exterior door surface.
Oven Racks
Clean with detergent and hot water. Stubborn spots can be scoured with a soap-filled steel wool pad.
This oven features an automatic pyrolytic self-cleaning cycle. During this cycle, the oven reaches elevated temperatures in order to
burn-off soil and deposits. An integral smoke eliminator helps reduce odors associated with the soil burn-off. A powder ash residue is
left in the bottom of the oven after completion of the self-clean cycle. The door latch is automatically activated after selecting the self-
clean setting. The latch ensures that the door cannot be opened while the oven interior is at clean temperatures.
Before starting the Self-Clean cycle:
1. Remove the oven racks, and any other items/utensils from the oven. The high heat generated during the cleaning cycle can
discolor, warp, and damage these items. DO NOT use foil or liners in the oven. During the self-clean cycle, foil can burn or melt and
damage the oven surface.
2. Wipe off any large spills from the oven bottom and sides. NEVER use oven cleaners inside a self-cleaning oven or on raised portions
of the door.
3. Some areas of the oven must be cleaned by hand before the cycle begins. Soils in these areas will be baked on and very difficult to
clean if not removed first. Clean the door up to the gasket, the door frame, and up to 2 inches inside the frame with detergent and
hot water. Rinse thoroughly and dry.
To start the Self-Clean cycle:
Self-Clean Cycle
CAUTION
DO NOT touch the exterior portions of the oven after self-cleaning cycle has
begun, since some parts become extremely hot to the touch! During the first
few times the self-cleaning feature is used, there may be some odor and
smoking from the curing of the binder in the high-density insulation used in
the oven. When the insulation is thoroughly cured, this odor will disappear.
During subsequent self-cleaning cycles, you may sense an odor characteristic
of high temperatures. Keep the kitchen well-vented during the self-cleaning
cycle.
