CONTINUOUS-CLEANING
OVEN
FINISH
(some models)
The rough surfaces In your oven have a continuous-
cleaning finish. Spatters spread and fill the pores of this
special finish and then gradually burn away at medium
to high temperatures.
Heavy splllovers or believers need a little help from you:
Use clear water and a detergent or a cleanser such
as Fantastik®, Liquid Ajax®, Top Job®, Liquid Lyso!®
or Mr. Clean®, mixed in water, and a soft cloth or
nylon brush to clean any heavy spillovers.
Do not
use paper
towels or sponges
because
particles of these mateMals will rub elf and c!og the
pores of the oven finish.
Crusty and varnish-like
stains clog the p_'res h, the
finish and must be removed
or broken ___p before
cleaning
takes place.
They can be loosened
by
gently tapping
the stain with a wooden
or plastic
utensil.
After cleaning the oven surface, rinse it well using
three tablespoons
of vinegar mixed with a quart of
cold water. Blot up excess liquid.
Never scrape or use abrasive materials such as
scouring powders, commercial oven cleaners or
steel scouring pads for cleaning up spillovers. These
materials will scratch and damage the finish.
The remaining
sell will gradually burn off with normal
oven
use.

The hlgherthe
oven temperature, the faster the cleaning
action.
Cleaning time depends on type and amount of
soil, oven temperature and length of oven use.
If stubborn stains remain after normal oven use, you can
operate the oven empty at 400°F for additional continu-
ous cleaning action.
Some foods may leave a discoloration even when the
surface is clean.

You can protect
the oven bottom
from spillovers
b_
using a piece of foil under your utensil.
Cut the foil
slightly
larger than the pan and turn up the edges. Use
two oven racks and put the foil on the lower rack below
the pan. Do not use foil on the same rack as the
pan.
This wiP reflect
heat away,
Do not cover
an entire
oven rack
with foil. The foil can block normal
heat
flow and cause
poor baking
results.
Do not place any foil on the
oven bottom.
Foil used on the oven
bottom
may damage
the oven sur-
face;
therefore,
it should
not be
used.
Avoid spilling salt on the continuous-cleaning
finish.
Salt may become trapped In the pores and may cause
rusting.
Never use oven cleaner
on the continuous-clean-
ing finish.
Such cleaners
will damage
the finish.

REMOVAL
OF PACKAGING

of the product is an application
of household
liquid dish washing detergent,
mineral o11,or cooking oil. Apply with
soft cloth and allow to soak. Wipe with soft cloth. DO NOT use plastic pad or equivalent. This procedure is also safe
