Care And Cleaning; Broiler Pan And Grid; Shelves - GE JTP18 Use And Care Manual

Proper care and cleaning are important so your oven
will give you efficient and satisfactory service. Follow
these directions carefully in caring for your oven to
assure safe and proper maintenance.
Oven Shelves and the Convection Roasting Rack
Clean the oven shelves and the convection roasting
rack with a mild abrasive cleanser or steel wool.
After cleaning, rinse the shelves and rack with clean
water and dry with a clean cloth.
NOTE: The oven shelves and convection roasting
rack may be cleaned in the self-cleaning oven.
However, they will darken in color, lose their luster
and become hard to slide.
Wipe the shelf supports with cooking oil after self-
cleaning to make the shelves slide more easily.

Broiler Pan and Grid

After broiling, remove the broiler pan from the oven.
Remove the grid from the pan. Carefully pour out
grease from the pan into a proper container. Wash and
rinse the broiler pan and grid in hot water with a soap-
filled or plastic scouring pad.
If food has burned on, sprinkle the grid with detergent
while hot and cover with wet paper towels or a
dishcloth. Soaking the pan will remove burned on foods.
Both the broiler pan and grid may be cleaned with a
commercial oven cleaner.
Both the broiler pan and grid can also be cleaned in
the dishwasher.
Do not clean the broiler pan or grid in the self-
cleaning oven.
Do not store a soiled broiler pan and grid anywhere in
the oven.
Oven Heating Elements
Do not clean the bake element or the broil element.
Any soil will burn off when the elements are heated.
The bake element can be lifted gently to clean the
oven floor. If spillovers, residue or ash accumulate
around the bake element gently wipe around the
element with warm water.
