Stiff Bristle Nylon Brush
If heavy soiling has occurred on the
porous surjiace,
remove as much of the soil
as possible using a small amount of water and a stiff bristle nylon brush. Use
water sparingly and change it frequently, keeping it as clean as possible, and be
sure to blot it up with paper towels, cloths, or sponges. Do not
rub or scrub
with
paper towels, cloths or sponges, since they will leave unsightly lint on the oven
finish. If water leaves a white ring on the finish as it dries, apply water again and
bfot
it with a clean sponge, starting at the edge of the ring and working toward
the center.
For special cleaning instructions, see page 14.
Cool before cleaning. Frequent wiping with mild soap and water (particularly
after cooking meat) will prolong time between major cleanings. Rinse
thoroughly. Soap left on liner can cause stains. For heavy soil, use nonabrasive
cleaner and follow label instructions, using thin layer of cleaner. Use of rubber
gloves is recommended. Wipe or rub lightly on stubborn spots. Wipe off any
cleaner that gets on thermostat bulb found in back or on side, near top of oven.
The oven bottom panel can be removed for cleaning (see page 15). Use same
directions for cleaning as for Porcelain Enamel Oven Interior above.
