Recommendation
For general cleaning, use hot, soapy water and a cloth. For more difficult soils and built-up
grease, apply a liquid detergent directly onto the soil. Leave on soil for 30-60 minutes. Rinse
with a damp cloth and dry. Do not use abrasive cleaners on any of these materials; they can
scratch. To remove control knobs, turn to off position; grasp firmly and pull straight off the
shaft. To replace knobs after cleaning, line up the flat sides of both knob and shaft; then push
knob into place.
Before cleaning the control panel, turn all controls off, activate oven lockout (on some models)
and if needed remove any knobs from panel. Do not use abrasive cleaners on any of these
materials; they can scratch. Clean using hot, soapy water and a dishcloth. Be sure to squeeze
excess water from dishcloth before wiping control panel; especially when wiping around the
controls area. Excess water in or around the controls may cause damage to the appliance.
When rinsing, use clean water and a dishcloth and be sure to squeeze excess water from
dishcloth before wiping the control panel.
Gentle scrubbing with a soapy no-scratch cleaning pad will remove most spots. Rinse with a 1:1
solution of clear water and ammonia. If necessary, cover difficult spots with an ammonia-
soaked paper towel for 30 to 40 minutes. Rinse with clean water and a damp cloth, and then
scrub with a soap-filled no-scratch cleaning pad. Rinse and wipe dry with a clean cloth. Do
not allow food spills with high sugar or acid content (milk, tomatoes, sauerkraut, fruit juices or
pie filling) to remain on the surface; they may cause a dull spot even after cleaning.
For oven interior remove excessive spill overs from oven cavity bottom before starting Flex
Clean. Clean any soils from oven frame and door liner outside the oven door gasket. For very
important cleaning precautions be sure to read all the instructions in the Flex Clean section.
Use soap & water to thoroughly clean the top, sides and front of the oven door. Rinse well. You
may use a glass cleaner on the outside glass of the oven door. Do not immerse the door in
water. Do not spray or allow water or the glass cleaner to enter the door vents. Do not use
oven cleaners, cleaning powders or any harsh abrasive cleaning materials on the outside of
the oven door.
Ceramic cooktop Do not use spray oven cleaners on the cooktop. See "Cooktop cleaning" and "Cooktop main-
tenance" later in the Care & Cleaning section.
Stainless Steel (some models) Only use cleaners and polishes that are specifically manufactured for cleaning stainless steel.
Always rub in direction of metal grain to avoid damaging. Do not use cleaners with high
concentrations of chlorides or chlorine. Do not use harsh scrubbing cleaners. Polish with a lint-
free cloth. Always be sure to wipe excess cleaner/polish off from the metal surface as bluish
stains may occur during future oven heating that cannot be removed. Clean heavier soils with
hot, soapy water and a dishcloth. Rinse and dry using clean water and a cloth.
