and door seal areas wipe off with a
damp cloth� Mild detergent may be
used if they get very dirty� The use
of harsh detergent or abrasive is not
recommended�
Do not use commercial oven
cleaners.

sharp metal scrapers to clean the oven
door glass since they can scratch the

it with a soft, dry cloth� Do not use harsh
detergents or abrasives on the control
panel� When cleaning the control panel

the glass tray for cleaning� Wash
the tray in warm soapy water or in a

surface or roller ring wheels� After
removing the roller ring from the cavity
floor for cleaning, be sure to replace it in
