OVEN CARE

General Cleaning

IMPORTANT: Before cleaning, make sure all controls are off and the oven is cool. Always follow label instructions on cleaning products.

Soap, water and a soft cloth or sponge are suggested first unless otherwise noted.

GREASE FILTERS

Do not use ammonia or corrosive cleaning agents such as lye- based oven cleaners.

Hot water and mild detergent:

Soak filters, then scrub and swish to remove embedded dirt and grease. Rinse well and shake to dry.

Dishwasher:

Wash separately, not with dirty dishes, because food can be trapped in the filters.

OVEN CAVITY

The gray finish inside the oven cavity is a durable, nonstick coating that makes soils easier to remove.

Do not use metal or sharp utensils or scrapers, soap-filled scouring pads, abrasive cleaners, steel-wool pads, gritty washcloths or some recycled paper towels. Damage may occur.

The area where the oven door and frame touch when closed should be kept clean.

Average soil

Mild, nonabrasive soaps and detergents:

Rinse with clean water and dry with soft, lint-free cloth.

Heavy soil

Mild, nonabrasive soaps and detergents:

Heat 1 cup (250 mL) of water for 2 to 5 minutes in oven. Steam will soften soil. Rinse with clean water and dry with soft, lint-free cloth.

Odors

Lemon juice or vinegar:

Heat 1 cup (250 mL) of water with 1 tbs (15 mL) of either lemon juice or vinegar for 2 to 5 minutes in oven.

Microwave Inlet Cover

The microwave inlet cover (see “Parts and Features”) should be kept clean to avoid arcing and oven damage.

Wipe with wet cloth.

CONTROL PANEL/INTERACTIVE TOUCH DISPLAY

Activate the Child Lock to avoid touch screen activation during cleaning. See “Child Lock” section.

Do not use abrasive cleaners, steel-wool pads or gritty washcloths. Damage may occur.

Use gentle pressure when wiping the touch screen.

Glass cleaner and soft cloth:

Apply glass cleaner to soft cloth, not directly on panel.

Mild soap, water and soft washcloth

OVEN DOOR AND EXTERIOR

The area where the oven door and frame touch when closed should be kept clean.

Mild, nonabrasive soaps and detergents:

Rinse with clean water and dry with soft, lint-free cloth.

Glass cleaner and paper towels or nonabrasive plastic scrubbing pad:

Apply glass cleaner to towel, not directly to surface.

Stainless Steel (on some models)

Do not use soap-filled scouring pads, abrasive cleaners, steel- wool pads, gritty washcloths or some paper towels. Damage may occur.

Rub in direction of grain to avoid damaging.

Stainless Steel Cleaner & Polish (not included): See “Assistance or Service” section to order.

Liquid detergent or all-purpose cleaner:

Rinse with clean water and dry with soft, lint-free cloth.

Vinegar for hard water spots

STEAMER VESSEL

Soft brush, if necessary, to clean holes.

Dishwasher

Stubborn Stains

To remove stains such as tomato sauce, use a nonabrasive cleanser, a no-scratch pad, or a solution of dishwasher detergent and water (1/4 cup [60 mL] detergent to 1 cup [250 mL] warm water).

TURNTABLE

Replace turntable immediately after cleaning. Do not operate the microwave oven without the turntable in place.
