Porcelain enamel is acid resistant, but not acid proof. Acid foods
such as citrus juices, tomatoes, rhubarb, vinegar, alcohol or milk,
should be wiped up and not allowed to bake onto the porcelain during
the next use. Over a period of time, the porcelain may craze (get fine
hairlike lines) This will not affect oven performance.
See Self-Cleaning instructions, Pages 34 and 35.
NOTE: Due to the high temperatures used for self-cleaning, the
oven may develop fine hairlike lines or surface roughness. This
is a common condition and does not affect either the cooking
or the cleaning performance of the oven.

Dry. If food has burned onto the oven and is difficult to remove,
the spots can be soaked with a cloth saturated with household
ammonia. Close the door and allow it to soak for an hour or two,
or until the food soil can be easily removed with a damp soapy
cloth or mild abrasive. A solution of about 3 tablespoons of
household ammonia in a half cup of water may be placed in the
warm oven over night. This will loosen hardened residue and
spillage so that it may be easily wiped up. The ammonia solution
may be added to warm water for a thorough wiping of the oven.
