Care and

WARNING

•To avoid electrical shock or burns, turn off all controls and ensure the oven is cool before cleaning.

•Do not use harsh or abrasive cleaning agents, waxes, polishes or commercial oven cleaners to clean the oven.

•Do not use commercial oven cleaners inside the oven. Use of these cleaners can produce hazardous fumes or can permanently damage the porcelain finishes.

Read and follow these Care and Cleaning instructions completely to maintain proper oven operation and appearance throughout the life of the product. Several materials and finishes are used

in the oven. Each material and finish must be properly cleaned according to the following recommendations. Failure to follow these recommendations may result in permanent damage to the oven.

Control Panel

•To avoid accidentally turning the oven on while cleaning the control panel, activate the secure feature. Press and hold the CANCEL • SECURE key for approximately three seconds. This will disable the control panel and allow cleaning the controls without accidentally starting any functions. “OFF” will appear in the display when the control panel has been secured.

•To re-activate the control panel, again push and hold the CANCEL • SECURE key for three seconds. “OFF” will disappear from the display.

•Clean the control panel with a solution of mild detergent and warm water. DO NOT USE ABRASIVE CLEANERS OR SCRUBBERS. THEY WILL PERMANENTLY DAMAGE THE FINISH. Dry the control panel completely with a soft, lint-free cloth.

Cleaning

Porcelain Surfaces

•The oven interior and inner door liners are finished in porcelain enamel. Clean these surfaces with a solution of mild detergent and hot water. Rinse and dry with a soft cloth.

Do not use abrasives or commercial oven cleaners. Always remove excess grease and soil from the oven interior and door prior to using the self-cleaning cycle.

Brass, Chrome and Copper Surfaces

•Clean these surfaces with a solution of mild detergent and warm water. Rinse, dry and polish with a soft, lint-free cloth.

•Brass, chrome, and copper finishes are protected with a clear coat enamel and should not be cleaned with metal polishes.

Broiler Pan and Grill

•The oven broiler pan and grill are finished in porcelain enamel. Clean both components in a solution of detergent and hot water. For heavy soil conditions, use a scouring pad such as steel wool with plenty of water. Rinse well after cleaning.

Oven Racks

•The oven racks are chrome-plated. For everyday cleaning, apply a solution of detergent and hot water. To clean heavy soil, use a scouring pad such as steel wool with plenty of water, or use a solution of 1 cup ammonia to 2 gallons of water. Remove the racks during self-cleaning. If the racks are left in the oven during self-cleaning, they will permanently discolor.

Door Handle/Control Housing

•Clean the door handle and control panel housing with a solution of mild detergent and hot water. Rinse and dry with a soft cloth. DO NOT USE ABRASIVE CLEANERS OR SCRUBBERS. THEY WILL PERMANENTLY DAMAGE THE FINISH.

Door Glass

•Clean all glass surfaces with a solution of mild detergent and hot water. Use a mild glass cleaner to remove fingerprints or smears. Dry completely with a soft, lint-free cloth.

Stainless Steel Surfaces

•On stainless steel ovens, the control panel, door(s) and exhaust grill are covered with stainless steel panels. Clean these surfaces with a solution of mild detergent and warm water. Rinse and dry with a soft, lint-free cloth.

IMPORTANT:

•If commercially available stainless steel cleaners are used, it is important to read the labels for chlorine compounds. Chlorine is a corrosive substance. If these compounds are present, rinse thoroughly and dry with a soft, lint-free cloth.

•Always wipe stainless steel surfaces with the grain.

Convection Filter

WARNING

•Remove the filter only when it is cool.

•Remove the filter during self-cleaning. If the filter is left in the oven during self-cleaning it will permanently discolor. Re-install the filter before cooking in the oven again. Failure to do so will expose the convection fan blade that rotates at high speed during convection modes.

•The convection filter is made of stainless steel. Remove the filter regularly for cleaning. A clogged filter will reduce the effectiveness of the convection cooking modes.
