Porcelain Oven Interior
With proper care, the
porcelain enamel finish
on the inside of the
oven will stay new-
looking for years.
Let the range cool
before cleaning.
We recommend that
you wear rubber
gloves when cleaning
the range.
Soap and water will normally do the job.
Heavy spattering or spillovers may require cleaning
with a mild abrasive cleaner. Soapy, wet metal pads
may also be used. Do not allow food spills with a
high sugar or acid content (such as milk, tomatoes,
sauerkraut, fruit juices or pie filling) to remain on
the surface. They may cause a dull spot even after
cleaning.
Household ammonia may make the cleaning job
easier. Place 1/2 cup in a shallow glass or pottery
container in a cold oven overnight. The ammonia
fumes will help loosen the burned-on grease and food.
Metal Parts
Do not use steel wool, abrasives, ammonia or commercial oven
cleaners. To safely clean surfaces; wash, rinse and then dry with a
soft cloth.
If necessary, you may use an oven cleaner.
Follow package directions.
Cautions about using spray-on oven cleaners:
• Do not spray on the electrical controls and switches
because it could cause a short circuit and result in
sparking or fire.
• Do not allow a film from the cleaner to build up
on the temperature sensor—it could cause the oven
to heat improperly. (The sensor is located at the top
of the oven.) Carefully wipe the sensor clean after
each oven cleaning, being careful not to move the
sensor as a change in its position could affect how
the oven bakes.
• Do not spray any oven cleaner on the outside of
the oven door, handles or any exterior surface of the
oven, wood or painted surfaces. The cleaner can
damage these surfaces.
