Cleaning and Maintenance

NOTE: Disconnect line cord from power supply before cleaning or servicing.

Break-In Period

When oven is new, operate it for one hour at °F (°C) before you begin your normal cooking operation. After cooling, wipe the interior, including the racks, with a clean damp cloth.

Exterior Cleaning

Establish a regular schedule. Any spills should be wiped oﬀ immediately.

1.T he oven should always be allowed to cool suﬃciently before any cleaning is attempted.

2.Wipe exposed, cleanable surface when cool with a mild detergent and hot water. Stubborn residue spots may be removed with a lightweight non-metallic scouring pad. Dry thoroughly with a clean cloth.

3.Stubborn stains may be removed by using a non- metallic abrasive pad, rubbing in the direction of the metal’s grain. If necessary, for particularly heavy deposits, you may mix a thin paste of water and scouring powder, and apply it with a sponge. Be careful to apply light pressure and remember to rub only in the direction of the grain in the metal.

4.The control panel surface is easily cleaned with hot water, soap and a soft cloth. Do not use hard abrasives, solvent type materials or metallic scouring pads since these will scratch or cloud the surface.

5.Never spray the perforated areas or control panel with steam or water, as this will allow moisture into the control cavity, which could damage electrical components.

Interior Cleaning

Establish a regular cleaning schedule or wipe oﬀ on the same day when spillovers occur.

1.Cool down oven.

2.Remove oven racks.

3.Lift rack guides on either side of oven oﬀ of holders. Racks and guides may be run through dishwasher while oven cavity is being cleaned.

4.Clean with soap and water using a non-metallic scouring pad, if necessary. If dirt and grease have accumulated, a mild ammonia solution or commercial oven cleaner such as Easy-Oﬀ or Dow may be used.

5.To reinstall, reverse procedure. Place the bottom of the rack guide against the cavity wall. Keeping the top pulled away from the wall lift up. Push the top of the guide against the wall and push down locking it into place.

Fan Area Maintenance

If aluminum foil is routinely used to wrap food or cooking vessels during oven operation, the following preventive maintenance must be performed:

1.Turn power switch to “Oﬀ” position

2.Remove oven racks and rack guides.

3.Remove air baﬄe and clean any stains or deposits.

4.Check blower wheel and air baﬄe for particles of aluminum foil or food deposits. Clean ﬁns of blower wheel. (CAUTION: edges of blower wheel ﬁns may be sharp).

5.Reinstall the air baﬄe, rack guides and oven racks.

This simple practice, if performed on a regular basis will keep your Garland oven operating at peak performance.
