Oven Shelves
Clean the shelves with an abrasive cleanser or
steel wool. After cleaning, rinse the shelves with
clean water and dry with a clean cloth_
Oven Bottom
The oven bottom has a porcelain enamel finish. To
make cleaning easier, protect the oven bottom from
excessive spillovers by placing a cookie sheet on the
shelf below the shelf you are cooking on. You can use
aluminum foil if you do not cover the whole shelf_ This
is particularly important when baking a fruit pie or
other foods with a high acid contenL Hot fruit fillings
or other foods that are highly acidic (such as milk,
tomatoes or sauerkraut, and sauces with vinegar or
lemon juice) may cause pitting and damage to the
porcelain enamel surface and should be wiped up
immediately
if a spillover does occur on the oven bottom, allow
the oven to cool firstĀ° Remove the oven bottom for
easier clean-up and to prevent damage to the contin-
uous cleaning oven coating (on some models),,
Frequent wipings with mild soap and water (particu-
larly after cooking meat) wil! prolong the time between
major cleanings Rinse thoroughly. Soap left on the
oven bottom can cause stains.
For heavy soil, use an abrasive cleaner or a soap-
filled scouring pad, A commercial oven cleaner may
also be used, following the package directions.
Oven Light BuBb (on some models)
The light bulb is located
in the upper left corner of
the oven. Before replac-
ing your oven light bulb,
disconnect the electrical
power to the range at the
main fuse or circuit breaker panel or unplug the range
from the electrical outlet Let the bulb cool completely
before removing it, Replace the bulb with a 40 watt
appliance bulb onlyo Do not touch a hot bulb with a
damp cloth as the bulb will break,.
Porcelain Oven nterior
(on all models except Continuous Cleaning models)
With proper care, the porcelain enamel interior will
retain its attractive finish for many years.
Soap and water will normally do the job. Heavy spat-
tering or spillovers may require cleaning with a mild
abrasive cleanser. Soapy, wet pads may also be usedĀ°
Do not allow food spills with a high sugar or acid con-
tent (such as milk, tomatoes, sauerkraut, fruit juices
or pie filling) to remain on the surfacer They may
cause dull spots even after cleaning.
Household ammonia may make the cleaning job easi-
er. Place 1/2 cup (125 ml) ammonia in a shallow glass
pan and leave in a cold oven overnight,. The ammonia
fumes will help loosen the burned-on grease and food_
When necessary, you may use a commercial oven
cleaner. Follow the package directions.
Cautions about using spray-on oven cleaners:
oBe careful where the oven cleaner is sprayed.
oDo not spray oven cleaner on the electrical controls
and switches (on some models) because it could
cause a short circuit and result in sparking or fire,
o Do not allow a film from the cleaner to remain on the
temperature sensing bulb--it could cause the oven
to heat improperly. (The bulb is located at the rear of
the oven..) Carefully wipe the bulb clean after each
oven cleaning, being careful not to move the bulb as
a change in its position could affect how the oven
bakes.
Do not spray any oven cleaner on the outside oven
door, handles or any exterior surface of the oven,
cabinets or painted surfaces_ The cleaner can dam-
age these surfaces. e
