Porcelain Enamel Oven Cleaning (Side
Oven, If
equipped)
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
1.
Allow a dish of ammonia to sit in the oven overnight or for several hours with the 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 cleaner. If necessary, 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 the oven to heat improperly.
Carefully wipe the bulb clean after each oven cleaning, being careful not to move the
bulb. A change in its position could affect how the oven bakes. Avoid bending the bulb
and capillary tube.
3.
DO NOT spray any cleaner on the oven door trim or gasket, handles or any exterior
surfaces of the range, wood or painted surfaces. The cleaner can damage these surfaces.
To Clean
the Oven
Bottom
Clean using hot, soapy water, a mild abrasive cleanser, a soap-filled abrasive pad or 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
the oven).
