CARE & MAINTENANCE
Cooktop Maintenance
For everyday cleaning of marks, fingerprints and
non- sugary spillovers, apply a ceramic cooktop
cleaning product. Rinse and wipe dry with a clean
cloth or paper towel.
For boil overs, melts and hot sugary spills on the
cooktop, remove the spill or food item immediately
with a ceramic cooktop razor but beware hot
cooking surfaces. Hold the razer at a 45-degree
angle and scrape the spilled food to a cool area
of the cooktop, then clean it up with a dish cloth
or paper towel. Large spills should be removed
immediately to ensure they do not bake onto the
surface of the cooktop.
The control knobs are removable and can be
cleaned with a soft cloth and warm water.
For a burned-on residue
Let the cooktop cool, then, spread a few drops of
ceramic cooktop cleaning product on all the burned
residue area. Rub this area with a non-scratching
cleaning pad and if some residue remains, repeat
these steps.
For a heavy burned on residue
Let the cooktop cool, then use a ceramic cooktop
razor at a 45-degree angle and scrape to remove
the residue. After scraping the heavy residue,
spread a few drops of ceramic cooktop cleaning
product on all the burned residue area. Rub this
area with a non-scratching cleaning pad.
Porcelain oven interior
With proper care, the porcelain enamel interior will
retain its finish 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 filling, 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 fire.
Do not spray oven cleaner directly onto the oven
heating elements.
Do not allow a film 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 rear
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.
