Special Care of Continuous-Cleaning Oven Interior (on some models)

The continuous-cleaning oven cleans itself while cooking.

The oven interior is finished with a special coating that cannot be cleaned in the usual manner with soap, detergents, steel wool pads, commercial oven cleaners, coarse abrasive pads or coarse brushes. Use of such cleansers and/or the use of oven sprays will cause permanent damage.

The special coating is a porous ceramic material, which is dark in color and feels slightly rough to the touch. If magnified, the surface would appear as peaks, valleys and sub-surface ‘‘tunnels.’’ This rough finish tends to prevent grease spatters from forming little beads or droplets that run down the side walls of a hard-surface oven liner, leaving unsightly streaks that require hand cleaning. Instead, when spatter hits the porous finish, it is dispersed and partially absorbed. This spreading action increases the exposure of oven soil to heated air and makes it somewhat less noticeable.

Soil may not disappear completely and at some time after extended usage, stains may appear that cannot be removed.

The special coating works best on small amounts of spatter. It does not work well with larger spills, especially sugars, egg or dairy mixtures. For this reason, the oven is equipped with a removable, replaceable aluminum foil oven bottom liner which protects the porous bottom of the oven from spillovers.

This special coating is not used on the oven shelves or on the inside of the oven door. These should be removed for cleaning to prevent damage to the continuous- cleaning oven coating.

Use care in removing and replacing the shelves and in placing and removing dishes and food to avoid scratching, rubbing or otherwise damaging the porous finish on the oven walls.
