DIRECTIONS
Proiect the p0'rcelain enamel oven bosom by (1) using large enough
cookware to prevent boilovers; (2) placing a piece of aluminum foil,
that is slightly larger than the cookware, on the lower rack. NEVER
place foil directly on the oven bottom as foil may melt onto oven bot-
tom. Protect oven bottom against acid spills (milk, cheese, tomato,
lemon juice, etc.) or sugary spills (pie filling) as they may pit or dis-
color the oven bottom. See porcelain enamel for additional informa-
tion.
Clean with soapy water. Remove stubborn soil with cleansing
powder or soap filled scouring pad. Rinse and dry. NOTE: If racks
become difficult to slide, a thin coat of vegetable oil on the underside
of the rack will make sliding easier.
When surface is cool, clean with soap and water; rinse, and dry. Use
a glass cleaner and a soft cloth. NOTE: Never use oven cleaners,
abrasive or caustic liquid or powdered cleansers on plastic finishes.
These cleaning agents will scratch or marr finish. NOTE: To prevent
staining or discoloration, wipe up fat, grease or acid (tomato, lemon,
vinegar, milk, fruit juice, marinade) immediately with a dry paper
towel or cloth.
Clean porcelain with soap and water; rinse. Use cleansing powders
or a plastic scouring pad to remove stubborn soil. Wipe acid or
sugar stains as soon as area is cool as these stains may discolor or
etch the porcelain. Do not use metallic scouring pads as they will
scratch the porcelain.
To make cleaning the oven easier, place 1/2 cup household
ammonia in a shallow glass container and leave in a cold oven
overnight. The ammonia fumes will help loosen the burned on
grease and food. Oven cleaners can be used on the porcelain oven
only. Follow manufacturer's directions. If oven cleaner was used,
thoroughly rinse oven cavity and capillary tube which is located at
the top of the oven.
• Soap and water Wash with soap and water, rinse and dry. Do not remove door
gasket.
• Soap and water
• Paste of baking soda
and water
• Plastic scoudng sponge
or pad
• Mildly abrasive cleanser
All burners: For ease of cleaning, clean burners each time the
cooktop is used with warm soapy water. If a boilover occurs, remove
pan to another burner; cool burner and clean. To remove stubborn
soil, use a dry cloth and mildly abrasive cleanser. Use care to
prevent cleaner from clogging ports. Burner must be dry before use.
NOTE: Yellow tipping or distortion of the flame may occur until the
burner is completely dry.
Clean burner ports with a straight pin or small metal paper clip. Do
not enlarge or distort ports. Do not use a wooden toothpick as it may
break off and clog port. If ports are clogged or soiled, the burner
may not light properly or the flame may not be even.
Conventional burners: Dry burners in the oven set at 170°1=.
Sealed burners: Sealed burner can not be removed by the
consumer. When cleaning burner, use care to prevent damage to
the ignitor. Surface burner will not light properly if ignitor is damaged,
broken, soiled, or wet. When cleaning the ports, be sure to clean the
port directly below the ignitor.
