How to Clean
Using a soft cloth, clean with mild dish detergent and water or a 50/50
solution of vinegar and water. Follow by rinsing the area with clean water;
dry and polish with a soft cloth.
Glass cleaners may be used if sprayed on a soft cloth first. DO NOT spray
liquids directly on the control pad and display area. 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.

damage the control panel surface.
Gentle scouring with a soapy scouring pad will remove most spots. Rinse

The oven door gasket is located on the oven door and visible when the
door is opened. This gasket is essential for a good seal. Care should be
taken not to rub, damage or remove the gasket.
