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 rack
below the rack you are cooking on.
This is particularly important when baking
a fruit pie or other foods with a high acid
content. Hot fruit fillings or other foods
that are highly acidic (such as tomatoes,
sauerkraut, and sauces with vinegar or
lemon juice) may cause pitting and
damage to the porcelain enamel surface
and should be wiped up immediately.
We don’t recommend using aluminum
foil on the oven bottom. It can affect air
flow if the holes are blocked and it can
concentrate heat at the bottom of the oven,
resulting in poor baking performance.
To clean up spillovers, use soap and water,
an abrasive cleaner or soap-filled scouring
pad. Remove the oven bottom for easier
clean-up and to prevent damage to
the continuous cleaning oven coating
(on some models).
Care and cleaning of the range.
Lift-Off Oven Door
The oven door is removable, but it is heavy. You may
need help removing and replacing the door.
To remove the door, open it a few inches to
the special stop position that will hold the
door open. Grasp firmly on each side and
lift the door straight up and off the hinges.
NOTE: Be careful not to place hands between the
hinge and the oven door frame as the hinge could
snap back and pinch fingers.
To replace the door, make sure the hinges
are in the special stop position. Position
the slots in the bottom of the door squarely
over the hinges. Then lower the door
slowly and evenly over both hinges at the
same time. If the hinges snap back against
the oven frame, pull them back out.
To clean the inside of the door:
Do not allow excess water to run into
any holes or slots in the door .
Because the area inside the gasket is
cleaned during the self clean cycle, you
do not need to clean this by hand. Any
soap left on the liner causes additional
stains when the oven is heated.
The area outside the gasket can be
cleaned with a soap-filled steel wool or
plastic pad.
To clean the outside of the door:
Use soap and water to thoroughly clean
the top, sides and front of the oven door.
Rinse well. You may also use a glass
cleaner to clean the glass on the outside
of the door.
Spillage of marinades, fruit juices, tomato
sauces and basting materials containing
acids may cause discoloration and should
be wiped up immediately. When the
surface is cool, clean and rinse.
Do not use oven cleaners, cleansing
powders or harsh abrasives on the
outside of the door.
Lift the door straight up and off
the hinges.
The gasket is designed with a gap
at the bottom to allow for proper
air circulation.
Do not rub or clean the door gasket—
it has an extremely low resistance
to abrasion.
If you notice the gasket becoming
worn, frayed or damaged in any way
or if it has become displaced on the
door, you should have it replaced.
