For general cleaning, use hot, soapy water and a cloth. For more difficult soils and built-up grease, apply a liquid detergent directly onto the soil. Leave on soil for 30 to 60 minutes. Rinse with a damp cloth and dry. DO NOT use abrasive cleaners on any of these materials; they can scratch.

Painted Control Before cleaning the control panel, turn all controls to OFF and remove the control knobs. To

Panelsremove, pull each knob straight off the shaft. Clean as instructed above. Squeeze excess water from the cloth before wiping the panel; especially when wiping around the controls. Excess water in or around the controls may cause damage to the appliance. To replace knobs after cleaning, line up the flat sides of both the knob and the shaft, then push the knob(s) into place.

Porcelain Enamel, Broiler Pan & Insert (some models), Broiler Drawer, Door Liner & Oven Bottom

Gentle scouring with a soapy scouring pad will remove most spots. Rinse with a 1:1 solution of clean water and ammonia. If necessary, cover difficult spots with an ammonia-soaked paper towel for 30 to 40 minutes. Rinse with clean water and a damp cloth, then scrub with a soap- filled scouring pad. Rinse and wipe dry with a clean cloth. Remove all cleaners or the porcelain may become damaged during future heating. DO NOT use spray oven cleaners on the range top.

Oven Racks	Remove racks. See "Removing & Replacing Oven Racks" under Before Setting Oven Controls.
	Use a mild, abrasive cleaner, following the cleaner’s recommendations. Rinse with clean water &
	let dry. After cleaning the racks, rub the sides of the racks with wax paper or a cloth containing a
	small amount of salad oil (this will make the racks glide easier into the oven rack positions).
Oven Door	Use soap & water to thoroughly clean the top, sides & front of the oven door. Rinse well. You
	may use a glass cleaner on the outside glass of the oven door. DO NOT immerse the door in
	water. DO NOT spray or allow water or the glass cleaner to enter the door vents. DO NOT
	use oven cleaners, cleaning powders or any harsh abrasive cleaning materials on the outside of
	the oven door. DO NOT clean the oven door gasket. The oven door gasket is made of a woven
	material, on Self-Cleaning models, which is essential for a good seal. Care should be taken not
	to rub, damage or remove this gasket.
