Porcelain Enamel Oven Cleaning
Porcelain has a smooth finish and is a type of glass fused to metal. Oven cleaners
can be used on all interior oven surfaces.
General Cleaning
Remove soils using hot, soapy water. Do not allow food spills with a high sugar or
acid content (such as milk, tomatoes, saukerkraut, fruit juices or pie filling) to remain
on the surface as they may cause a dull spot even after cleaning.
To Remove Heavy Soil

oven door closed. Clean softened spots using hot, soapy water. Rinse well with
water and a clean cloth.
2. If soil remains, use a soap-filled scouring pad or a nonabrasive (:leaner. If
necessa% use an oven cleaner following manufacturer's instructions. DO NOT
mix ammonia with other cleaners.
Adhere to the following precautions when using oven cleaners:
1. DO NOT spray on the electrical controls or switches because it could cause a short
circuit and result in sparking or fire.
2. DO NOT allow a film from the cleaner to build up on the temperature sensing
bulb located at the top left rear corner of the oven; it could cause tile oven to
heat improperly. Carefully wipe tile bulb (:lean after each oven cleaning, being
careful not to move the bulb. A change in its position could affect howthe oven
bakes. Avoid bending the bulb and capillary tube.
3. DO NOT spray any cleaner on tile oven door trim or gasket, handles or any
exterior surfaces of the range, wood or painted surfaces. Tile cleaner can
damage these surfaces.

oven cleaner following oven cleaner manufacturer's instructions.
DO NOT line the oven walls, bottom, racks or any other part of the
appliance with aluminum foil. Doing so will destroy heat distribution, produce poor
baking results and cause permanent damage to the oven interior (aluminum foil will
melt to the interior surface of tile oven).
