Care and cleaning of the oven.

Be sure electrical power is off and all surfaces are cool before cleaning any part of the oven.

How to Remove Protective Shipping Film and Packaging Tape

Instructions Safety

Carefully grasp a corner of the protective shipping film with your fingers and slowly peel it from the appliance surface. Do not use any sharp items to remove the film. Remove all of the film before using the appliance for the first time.

To assure no damage is done to the finish of the product, the safest way to

remove the adhesive from packaging tape on new appliances is an application of a household liquid dishwashing detergent. Apply with a soft cloth and allow to soak.

NOTE: The adhesive must be removed from all parts. It cannot be removed if it is baked on.

Cleaning Operating

Lift-Off Oven Door

The oven door is removable for easier access to the light bulb.

Do not lift the door by the handle.

To remove the door, open it to the broil stop position. Grasp firmly on each side and lift the door straight up and off the hinges.

Lift the door straight up and off the hinges.

Do not place hands between the hinge and the oven door frame.

To replace the door, make sure the hinges are in the broil stop position. Position the slots in the bottom of the door squarely over the hinges and slowly lower it over both hinges.

Troubleshooting Tips Care and

The gasket is designed with a gap at the bottom to allow for proper air circulation.

Do not rub or clean the door gasket— it has an extremely low resistance to abrasion.

If you notice the gasket becoming worn, frayed or damaged in any way or if it has become displaced on the door, you should have it replaced.

Door (on the upper oven)

To clean the inside of the door:

Because the area inside the gasket is cleaned during the self-clean cycle, you do not need to clean this by hand.

The area outside the gasket and the door liner can be cleaned with a soap-filled or plastic scouring pad, hot water and detergent. Rinse well with a vinegar and water solution.

To clean the outside of the door:

Use soap and water to thoroughly clean the top, sides and front of the oven door. Rinse well. You may also use a glass cleaner to clean the glass

on the outside of the door. Do not let water drip into the vent openings.

If any stain on the door vent trim is persistent, use a soft abrasive cleaner and a sponge-scrubber for best results.

Spillage of marinades, fruit juices, tomato sauces and basting materials containing acids may cause discoloration and should be wiped up immediately. When surface is cool, clean and rinse.

Do not use oven cleaners, cleaning powders or harsh abrasives on the outside of the door.

Consumer Support

Do not allow food spills with a high sugar or acid content (such as tomatoes, sauerkraut, fruit juices or pie filling) to remain on the surface. They may cause a dull spot even after cleaning.

Door (on the lower oven)

To clean the inside of the door:

Soap and water will normally do the job. Heavy spattering or spillovers may require cleaning with a mild abrasive cleaner. Soap-filled scouring pads may also be used.

If necessary, you may use an oven cleaner. Follow the package directions.

Clean the inside of the oven window with a mild non-scratching cleaner and a damp cloth.

To clean the outside of the door:

Use soap and water to thoroughly clean the top, sides and front of the

oven door. Rinse well. You may also use a glass cleaner to clean the glass on the outside of the door. Do not let water drip into the vent openings.

Spillage of marinades, fruit juices, tomato sauces and basting materials containing acids may cause discoloration and should be wiped up immediately. When surface is cool, clean and rinse.

Do not use oven cleaners, cleaning powders or harsh abrasives on the outside of the door.
