Oven Bottom
The oven bottom has a porcelain enamel finish.
To make cleaning easier, protect the oven bottom from
excessive spi_lovers by placing a cookie sheet on the
shelf below the shelf you are cooking on_ You can use
aluminum foil if you do not cover the whole shelf. This is
particularly important when baking a fruit pie or other
foods with a high acid content. Hot fruit fillings or other
foods that are highly acidic (such as tomatoes, sauerkraut
and sauces with vinegar or lemon juice) may cause
pitting and damage to the porcelain enamel surface
and should be wiped up immediately_
If a spillover does occur on the oven bottom, allow
the oven to cool first_ Remove the oven bottom for easier
clean-up and to prevent damage to the continuous
cleaning oven coating (on some models)..

Frequent wipings with mild soap and water (particularly
after cooking meat) will prolong the time between major
