Porcelain Enamel Oven and Broiler Drawer
The oven interior is porcelain on steel, it is safe to clean using oven
cleaners.
General Cleaning
Remove soils using hot, soapy water. Do not allow food spills with a high
sugar or acid content (such as milk, tomatoes, saukerkraut, fruit juices or
pie filling) to remain on the surface as they may cause a dull spot even after
cleaning.
To Remove Heavy Soil
1. Allow a dish of ammonia to sit in the oven overnight or for several hours
with the oven door closed. Clean softened dirt spots using hot, soapy
water. Rinse well with water and a clean cloth.
2. If soil remains, use a soap-filled scouring pad or a nonabrasive cleaner. If
necessary, use an oven cleaner following manufacturer's instructions. DO
NOT mix ammonia with other cleaners.
3. Clean any soil from the oven frame, the door liner outside the oven door
gasket and the small area at the front center of the oven bottom. Clean
with hot, soapy water. Rinse well using clean water and a cloth.
Adhere to the following precautions when using oven cleaners:
1. DO NOT spray cleaner on the electrical controls or switches because it
could cause a short circuit and result in sparking or fire.
2. DO NOT allow a film from the cleaner to build up on the temperature
sensing bulb; it could cause the oven to heat improperly. (The bulb is
located in the rear of the oven.) Carefully wipe the bulb clean after each
oven cleaning, being careful not to move the bulb. A change in its
position could affect how the oven bakes. Avoid bending the bulb and
capillary tube.
3. DO NOT spray any cleaner on the oven door trim or gasket, broiler
drawer glides, handles or any exterior surfaces of the range, plastic or
painted surfaces. The cleaner can damage these surfaces.
To Clean the Oven Bottom
The oven bottom is porcelain enamel and can be removed for easier
cleaning. See "To Remove and Replace Oven Bottom" under General
Cleaning.
Clean using hot, soapy water, a mild abrasive cleanser, a soap-filled abrasive
pad or oven cleaner following manufacturer's instructions.
