CARE & MAINTENANCE
Porcelain oven interior
With proper care, the porcelain enamel interior will
retain its fi nish for many years.
Soap and water can be used to clean the interior.
Heavy splattering or spills may require cleaning
with a mild abrasive cleaner.
Do not allow spills with high acid content such as
milk, tomatoes, fruit juices or pie fi lling, to remain
on the surface. They may cause dull spots even after
cleaning.
Household ammonia may make cleaning easier.
Place 1/2 cup of ammonia in a shallow glass pan
and leave in a cold oven over night. The ammonia
fumes will help loosen burned on grease and food.
Cautions about using spray-on oven cleaners
Do not spray oven cleaner on the electrical controls
and switches as it could cause a short circuit and
result in sparking or fi re.
Do not spray oven cleaner directly onto the oven
heating elements.
Do not allow a fi lm from the oven cleaner to remain
on the temperature sensor as it could cause the oven
to heat improperly. The sensor is located on the top
of the oven. Carefully wipe the bulb clean after each
oven cleaning, being careful not to move the sensor
since a change in its position could affect how the
oven bakes.
Do not spray oven cleaner on the outside of the
oven door, handles or any exterior surface of the
oven, cabinet or painted surfaces. The cleaner can
damage these surfaces.
Oven shelves
Clean the shelves with an abrasive cleaner or steel
wool. After cleaning, rinse the shelves with clean
water and dry with a clean cloth.
Oven heating elements
Do not clean the bake element or the broil element.
Any food residue will burn off when the elements
are heated.
The bake element can be gently lifted to clean
the oven fl oor. Ensure the element is cool before
cleaning.
Control knobs
The control knobs may be removed for easier
cleaning. Make sure the knobs are in the "OFF"
position and then pull straight off the stems for
cleaning.
The knobs can be cleaned in a dishwasher or by
hand. Make sure the insides of the knobs are dry
before replacing on the appliance.
Painted surfaces
The painted surfaces include the sides, the control
panel, the door and the kick plate. Clean these with
soap and water or a vinegar and water solution.
Do not use commercial oven cleaners, cleansing
powders, steel wool or harsh abrasives on any
painted surface.
