soap left on die liner causes addiOonal
stains when die oven is heamd.

Oven Bottom
The oven bottom has a porcelain enamel
finish. To make cleaning easieI, protect
die oven bom)m from excessive spillovers
by placing a cookie sheet on die rack
below die rack you are cooking on.
This is particularly important when baking
a fruit pie oi other foods with a high acid
conmnt. Hot fl-uit fillings or other foods
that are highly acidic (such as tomatoes,
sauerkraut, and sauces with vinegar oi
lemon juice) may cause pitting and
damage m die porcelain enamel surface
and should be wiped up innnediately.
We don't iecommend using ahnninunl
foil on die oven bottom. It can affect air
flow if die holes are blocked and it can
concelmv_te heat at die bottom of die oven,
resulting in poor baking perfornlance.
To clean up spillovers, use soap and warn1,
an abrasive cleaner or soal)-filled scouring
pad. Remove die oven boEom for easier
clean-up.
