Care and €Meaning(cont oued)
Specia Care of Continuous-Cleaning
Oven interior (on some models)
The Continuous-Cleaning Oven 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
This 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 oven shelves,
the oven bottom or on the inside of the oven door.
Remove these to clean with a commercial oven clean-
er 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 bot-
tom and shelves and in placing and removing dishes
and food to avoid scratching, rubbing or otherwise
damaging the porous finish on the oven walls
To Clean the Continuous-Cleaning Oven:
1. Let range parts cool before handling We recom-
mend rubber gloves be worn when cleaning
2. Remove shelves and cookware
3. Soil visibility may be reduced by operating the oven
at 400°R Close the door and turn OVEN CON-
TROL knob to 400°E Time for at least four hours,,
Repeated cycles may be necessary before
improvement in appearance is apparenL
REMEMBER: During the operation of the oven, the
door and other range surfaces will get hot enough
to cause burns. Do not touch. Let the range cool
before replacing oven shelves.
4. If a spillover or heavy soiling occurs on the porous
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 it
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.
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 mar 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_
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.
