See instructions for Cavity porcelain enamel, 12" Electric Proofing Oven
Porcelain enamel is acid resistant, but not acid proof. Acid foods such as citric 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 procelain may
craze (get fine hairlike lines).
See Self-Cleaning instructions, Pages 31 and 32.
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.
Hot sudsy water.
• Wash, rinse thoroughly, and dry.
Mild Cleaners: Bon-ami ® , ammonia, or ammonia and water, Soft Scrub
• Apply to a damp sponge or cloth. Rub lightly. Rinse thoroughly. 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.
