Caring For Your Oven
Several finishes have been used on this
oven. To prevent damage to these
finishes, follow the suggested cleaning
method(s) for that finish.
Burn And Electrical Shock Hazard
Make sure all controls are OFF and
the oven is COOL before cleaning.
Failure to do so can result in bums
or electrical shock.
The control knobs and
command buttons
1. Turn control knobs to the OFF
position.
2. Pull control knobs and command
buttons straight off.
3. Wash in warm, soapy water.
4. Rinse well and dry completely. Do
not soak.
The control panel
1. Wipe with warm, soapy water or
spray glass cleaner, and a soft
cloth.
2. Rinse well.
3. Dry with soft cloth.
4. Replace control knobs and
command buttons by pushing them
firmly into place.
NOTE: When cleaning, never use steel
wool, abrasives, or commercial oven
cleaners which may damage the finish.
After cleaning, make sure all control
knobs point to the OFF position. Make
sure you have not turned oven ON when
replacing buttons. If oven has been
turned on, push Set/Cancel button.
Removing and replacing an
oven door
Both oven doors can be removed to
change optional oven door fronts. Do not
remove the single/upper oven door for
cleaning.
Personal Injury Hazard
. Oven doors are heavy. Use both
hands to remove the oven doors.
. Grasp only the sides of the oven
door. Do not use any portion of
the front frame or trim for lifting.
Failure to properly grasp the oven
door could result in personal injury
or product damage.
Screw
To remove:
1. Open the door completely.
2. Remove the two screws just above
the oven door hinges.
3. Close door to the Broil Stop position
(door will be open about 6 inches).
4. Hold the door firmly on both sides
and lift the door up and out of the
hinge slots to remove. Set the door
aside.
To replace:
1. Grasp door firmly on both sides.
Slide the hinge slot in the bottom of
the door over the hinges. Push the
door down and in to replace.
2. Open the door slightly past the
Broil Stop position and push it
down to make sure the door is
completely installed.
3. Open the door completely. Replace
the two oven door screws.
4. Close and open the door slowly to
make sure it is replaced properly.
NOTE: The inside of the Single/Upper
Oven door has a slot for the Oven Lock
Lever. Do not replace the Lower Oven
door on the Upper Oven cavity, or
damage to the interior finish may result
from the Lock Lever hitting the door
surface.
The standard-cleaning lower
oven (double oven)
The standard-cleaning lower oven has to
be hand cleaned. Use warm soapy
water, soapy steel wool pad, or a
commercial oven cleaner. See "Cleaning
Chart" on page 12 for further
instructions.
Using foil
To catch sugar or starchy spills from pies
and casseroles, use a piece of heavy-
duty aluminum foil or a shallow pan on
the rack under food. Foil or pan should
be slightly larger than the cooking
container.
NOTE: Do not use foil or foil liner to
cover the oven floor. Poor baking results
could occur.
