Cleaning Various Parts of Your appliance

Before cleaning any part of the appliance, be sure all controls are turned OFF and the appliance is COOL. REMOVE SPILLOVERS AND HEAVY SOILING AS SOON AS POSSIBLE. REGULAR CLEANINGS WILL REDUCE THE NUMBER OF MAJOR CLEANINGS LATER

Surfaces	How to Clean
Aluminum (Trim Pieces)	Use hot, soapy water and a cloth. Dry with a clean cloth. Do not scour or use all-purpose cleaners,
	ammonia, powdered cleaners or commercial oven cleaner. They can scratch and discolor aluminum.

	for stainless steel are recommended. Be sure to rinse the cleaners as bluish stains may occur during
	heating and cannot be removed.
Oven Racks	Oven racks may be removed or left in the oven during the self-clean cycle for cleaning. If removed,
	clean by using a mild, abrasive cleaner following manufacturer's instructions. Rinse with clean water
	and dry.
	If the racks are cleaned by running them through the self-clean cycle, their color will turn slightly
	blue and the finish will be dull. After the self-clean cycle is completed and the oven has cooled, rub
	the sides of the racks with wax paper or cloth containing a small amount of baby oil or salad oil.
	This will make the racks glide easier.

	oven door, wash with hot, soapy water and a clean cloth. DO NOT immerse the door in water or
	clean the oven door gasket. The oven door gasket is essential for a good seal. Care should be taken
	not to rub, damage or remove the gasket.
