General Directions
Do not clean bake element or broil element. Any soil will burn
off when element is heated. Bake element is hinged and can be
lifted to clean oven bottom.
Drain fat, cool pan and grid slightly. (Do not let soiled pan and
grid stand in oven to cool.) Sprinkle with soap. Fill the pan with
warm water. Let pan and grid stand for a few minutes. Wash or
scour if necessary. Rinse and dry. The broiler pan and grid may
also be cleaned in the dishwasher.
The burner bowls can be removed for ease in cleaning. For
extra dried on soil, soak the bowls in warm soapy water.
The coil elements do not need to be cleaned. Any food spilled
on the element during cooking will burn off. Never immerse coil
elements in water.
Pull off knobs. Wash gently but do not soak. Dry and return
controls to oven, making sure to match flat area on the knob to
the flat area on shaft.
Lift front of rangetop to open and clean. Some models have a
prop to hold rangetop during cleaning.
Clean the outside of the door and the window area with warm
soapy water.
Seamless Silicon Oven Door Gasket
Some ovens have black or dark gray silicon that can be
cleaned with soap and water. Do not allow harsh cleaners to
get on silicon gasket.
Braided Oven Door Gasket
Do not clean the braided oven door gasket. Gasket should not
be moved while cleaning. Avoid getting any cleaning materials
on gasket.
Wash all surfaces with cloth dampened in soapy water. Rinse
and polish with a dry cloth. If knobs are removed, do not allow
water to run down inside surface while cleaning.
Cool before cleaning. Frequent wiping with mild soap and water
prolongs time between thorough cleanings. If using a
commercial cleaner, follow the cleaner manufacture's
instructions. Be sure to rinse and dry completely.
For heavy soil, clean by hand and rinse thoroughly.
