Cleaning and Maintenance

Door Gasket (Seal)

warning

Take extreme caution when cleaning the door gasket. Rubbing or displacing it may damage the tight door seal required for proper cooking and self-cleaning.

Clean the door gasket by dabbing it with a solution of water and mild soap. Do not scrub it or it will become damaged.

Oven Racks

CAUTION

To prevent damage, do not self-clean the oven racks.

To clean the oven racks, apply a solution of detergent and hot water. When you need to clean heavy soil, use a scouring pad such as steel wool with plenty of water. You may also use a solution of one cup of ammonia to two gallons of water.

If you accidentally leave the racks in the oven during self-cleaning, you can polish them to make them easier to slide. Polish the rack edges with a soapy steel wool pad. Then apply a small amount of vegetable oil to the edges so that the racks slide more easily. Be aware that polishing will not completely remove the discoloration.

Meat Probe

warning

To prevent damage, do not immerse the meat probe in water.

The meat probe is constructed of silicone handles, a wire, a plug, and a stainless steel skewer. To clean the skewer, use a scouring pad and hot, soapy water. When you clean the handles, wipe them with a soft sponge soaked with a solution of detergent and warm water.

Optional Roast/Broil Pan with “V” Shaped Rack

Your roast/broil pan has a porcelain enamel finish. When you clean it, use a solution of detergent and hot water. If your roast/ broil pan is heavily soiled, use a scouring pad and plenty of water.

Rinse it well after cleaning.

The optional “V” Shaped rack is finished with an Excalibur™ non- stick coating. When you clean it, use a mild solution of detergent

and warm water. Use the soft side of a sponge to scrub it and dry it with a lint-free cloth.

Optional Baking Stone

Wash the optional baking stone

with hot water and scrub it clean before you use it for the first time. Do not use any soap or detergents to wash the stone. The stone is porous and soap will get trapped inside. The trapped soap will affect the flavor of the food cooked on it. Don’t be alarmed if the stone gets stains on it after it is used for a while. Stains do not affect the stone’s ability to bake properly.

When you need to remove large food particles from the baking stone, use warm water and a scrub brush. If there is a lot of oil build-up, it may smoke and create odors. If you need to remove the oily build up, use a scouring pad or brush to remove it. You may also use a paste of baking soda and water to scrub off small stains.

Optional Cookie Sheets

Clean the optional aluminum cookie sheets with a solution of detergent and warm water. Since aluminum can scratch, you need to use the soft side of a sponge. A way for you to keep cookie sheets cleaner is to use parchment paper over the cooking surface during baking. The parchment paper will also prevent food from sticking.

Broil Pan

Your broil pan has a porcelain enamel finish. When you clean it, use a solution of detergent and hot water. If your broil pan is heavily soiled, use a scouring pad with plenty of water. Rinse it well after cleaning.

Griddle

Clean the griddle after each use. Wash it thoroughly in hot soapy water to avoid stains from grease build-up. The griddle is coated with a non-stick coating for easy cleaning. Warm water and liquid detergent are all that are needed for cleaning. Remove stubborn spots with a non-abrasive plastic mesh pad. To prevent scratching, do not use abrasives or abrasive cleaners. Use the soft side of a sponge to scrub it. Dry it with a lint-free cloth.
