CleaningProcedure
Oven Racks
• Clean with soapy water.
• Remove stubborn soil with cleansing powder or soap-filled scouring pad. Rinse and dry.
Racks will permanently discolor and may not slide smoothly if left in the oven during a self-clean operation. If this
occurs, wipe the rack and embossed rack supports with a small amount of vegetable oil to restore ease of movement,
then wipe off excess oil.
Plastic Finishes
• When cool, clean with soap and water, rinse and dry.
- Backguard trim
• Use a glass cleaner and a soft cloth.
- End caps

marinade)immediately with a dry paper towel or cloth.
Sealed Gas Burners
• Clean frequently. Allow burner to cool. Clean with soap and plastic scouring pad. For stubborn soils, use a
non-abrasive cleaner. Try to prevent the cleaner from seeping into the gas ports as this will affect the flame. If the
cleaner does enter the ports, clean with a soft bristle brush or a straight pin, especially the port below the ignitor.
Do not enlarge or distort holes.
• Be careful not to get water into burner ports.
