Cleaning Various Parts of Your Wall Oven
Before cleaning any part of the wall oven, be sure all controls are turned OFF and the
oven is COOL. REMOVE SPILLOVERS AND HEAVY SOILING AS SOON AS POSSIBLE.
REGULAR CLEANINGS WILL REDUCE THE NUMBER OF MAJOR CLEANINGS LATER.
How to Clean
Use hot, soapy water and a cloth. Dry with a clean cloth. DO NOT scour or use all-purpose
cleaners, ammonia, powdered cleansers or commercial oven cleaner. They can scratch
and discolor aluminum.
For general cleaning, use hot soapy water and a cloth. For more difficult soils and built-
up grease, apply a liquid detergent directly onto the soil. Leave on soil for 30 to 60 minutes.
Rinse with a damp cloth and dry. DO NOT use abrasive cleaners, spray cleaners or scouring
pads on any of these materials. These cleaners can permanently damage the control pad
surface.
Before cleaning the control panel, turn control to OFF and remove the control knob. To
remove, pull knob straight off the shaft. Clean as instructed above. Squeeze excess water
from the cloth before wiping the panel; especially when wiping around the control. Excess
water in or around the control may cause damage to the appliance. To replace knob after
cleaning, line up the flat sides of both the knob and the shaft, then push the knob into place.
Gentle scouring with a soapy scouring pad will remove most spots. Rinse with a 1:1 solution
of clear water and ammonia. If necessary, cover difficult spots with an ammonia-soaked
paper towel for 30 to 40 minutes. Rinse with clean water and a damp cloth, and then scrub
with a soap-filled scouring pad. Rinse and wipe dry with a clean cloth. Remove all cleaners
or the porcelain may become damaged during future heating.
Clean with hot, soapy water and a dishcloth. Rinse with clean water and a cloth. Cover
stubborn spots with an ammonia-soaked paper towel for 30 to 40 minutes. Rinse. Cleaners
made especially for stainless steel are recommended. Be sure to rinse the cleaners as
bluish stains may occur during heating and cannot be removed.
Remove racks. See "Removing and Replacing Oven Racks" under Before Setting Oven
Controls. Use a mild, abrasive cleaner, following manufacturer's instructions. Rinse with
clean water and dry. After cleaning the racks, rub the sides of the racks with wax paper
or a cloth containing a small amount of baby oil or salad oil (this will make the racks glide
easier into the rack positions).
To clean oven door, wash with hot, soapy water and a clean cloth. DO NOT immerse the
door in water.
Care should be taken not to damage or remove the oven door gasket.
