For general cleaning, use a soft cloth, clean with mild dish detergent & water or a 50/50 solution
of vinegar & water. Follow by rinsing the area with clean water; dry & polish with a soft cloth.
Glass cleaners may be used if sprayed on a soft cloth 1st. DO NOT spray liquids directly on the
control pad and display areas. DO NOT use large amounts of water on the control panel - excess
water on the control area may cause damage to the appliance. DO NOT use other liquid
cleaners, abrasive cleaners, scouring pads, or some paper towels - they will damage the finish.
Before cleaning the control panel, turn all controls to OFF & remove the control knobs. To
remove, pull each knob straight off the shaft. Use the general cleaning instructions provided in the
paragraph above.
Gentle scouring
with a soapy scouring
pad will remove
most spots.
Rinse with a 1:1 solution
of
clean water & ammonia.
If necessary,
cover difficult
spots with an ammonia-soaked
paper towel
for 30 to 40 minutes.
Rinse with clean water and a damp cloth, then scrub with a soap-filled
scouring
pad. Rinse & wipe dry with a clean cloth. Remove

Remove oven racks. See "Removing & Replacing Oven Racks" under Before Setting Oven
Controls.
Use a mild, abrasive cleaner, following the cleaner's recommendations. Rinse with
clean water & let dry. After cleaning the racks, rub the sides of the racks with wax paper or a
cloth containing a small amount of salad oil (this will make the racks glide easier into the oven
rack positions).
Use soap & water to thoroughly clean the top, sides & front of the oven door. Rinse well. You
may use a glass cleaner on the outside glass of the oven door. DO NOT immerse the door in
water. DO NOT spray or allow water or the glass cleaner to enter the door vents. DO NOT
use oven cleaners, cleaning powders or any harsh abrasive cleaning materials on the outside of
the oven door. DO NOT clean the oven door gasket. The oven door gasket is made of a woven
material, on Self-Cleaning models, which is essential for a good seal. Care should be taken not
to rub, damage or remove this gasket.

mended to use mild dish soap and water or a 50/50 solution of water and vinegar.
