REMOVESPILLOVERSAND HEAVY SOILINGAS SOON AS POSSIBLE.REGULAR CLEANING WILL REDUCE THE NUMBER OF
MAJOR CLEANING LATER.
Adhere to the following cleaning precautions:
• Allow the oven to cool before cleaning.
• Wear rubber gloves when cleaning the appliance manually.
General Cleaning
Remove soils using hot, soapy water. Do not allow food spills with a high sugar or acid content (such as milk, tomatoes,
saukerkraut, fruit juices or pie filling) to remain on the surface asthey may cause a dull spot even after cleaning.
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 spots
using hot, soapy water. Rinsewell with water and a clean cloth.
2. If soil remains, use a soap-filled 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.
Adhere to the following precautions when using oven cleaners:
1. DO NOT spray on the electrical controls or switches because it could cause a short circuit and result in sparking or fire.
2. DO NOTallowa film from thecleaner to build up onthetemperaturesensing bulb; itcould causetheovento heat improperly.
(Thebulb islocated inthe 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.
3. DO NOT spray any cleaner on the oven door trim or gasket, handles or any exterior surfaces of the range, wood or painted
surfaces. The cleaner can damage these surfaces.
Ammonia must be rinsed before operating the oven. Provide adequate ventilation.
DO NOT line the oven walls, bottom, racksor any other part of the appliance with aluminum foil. Doing so will
destroy heat distribution, produce poor baking results and cause permanent damage to the oven interior (aluminum foil will melt
to the interior surface of the oven).
Cleaning the Oven Bottom
The oven bottom in non self-clean oven models can be removed for cleaning. See "To Removeand ReplaceOvenBottom"
under General Cleaning.
Clean using hot, soapy water, a mild abrasive cleanser, a soap-filled abrasive pad or oven cleaner following manufacturer's
instructions.
