General Cleaning
Refer to the table at the beginning of this chapter for
more information about cleaning specific parts of the
oven.
Follow these cleaning precautions:
•
Allow the oven to cool before cleaning.
•
Wear rubber gloves when cleaning the appliance
manually.
Remove soils using hot, soapy water. Do not allow
food spills with a high sugar or acid content (such as
milk, tomatoes, sauerkraut, fruit juices or pie filling) to
remain on the surface as they may cause a dull spot
even after cleaning. Remove spillovers and heavy soil-
ing as soon as possible. Regular cleaning will reduce
the effort required for major cleaning later.
CAUTION
Before manually cleaning any part of the oven, be
sure all controls are turned off and the oven is cool.
The oven may be hot and can cause burns.
Remove all racks and accessories from the oven
before cleaning.
Ammonia must be rinsed before operating the oven.
Provide adequate ventilation.
CARE AND CLEANING
Cleaning Porcelain Enamel Oven
The oven interior is porcelain on steel, it is safe to
clean using oven cleaners.
To remove heavy soil:
1.
Allow a dish of ammonia to sit in the oven over-
night 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 nonabrasive 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.
