IBecause the area inside the gasket is

stains when the oven is heated.

Oven Bottom
The oven bottom has a porcelain enamel
finish. To make deaning easier, protect the
oven bottom from excessive spillovers by
placing a cookie sheet on the shelf below
the shelf you are cooking on. This is
particularly important when baking a fruit
pie or other foods with a high add 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.
We don't recommend using aluminum foil
on the oven bottom. It can affect air flow if
the holes are blocked and it can concentrate
heat at the bottom of the oven, resulting in
poor baking performance.
To dean up spillovers, use soap and water,
an abrasive cleaner or soap-filled steel-wool
pad. Rinse well to remove any soap before
self-cleaning.
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 1lotwater 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.
The broiler pan and grid may be cleaned
with a commercial oven cleaner.
Both the broiler pan and grid can also be
cleaned in a dishwasher,
Do not store a soiled broiler pan and _d
