CARE & CLEANING (Cleaning Chart)

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 CLEANING WILL REDUCE THE NUMBER OF MAJOR CLEANING LATER.

Surfaces

How to Clean

Aluminum (trim pieces) &

Use hot, soapy water and a cloth. Dry with a clean cloth.

and water. Follow by rinsing the area with clean water; dry and polish with a soft cloth.

& Decorative Trim Pieces

Glass cleaners may be used if sprayed on a soft cloth first. DO NOT spray liquids directly

 

on the control pad and display area. Do not use large amounts of water on the control

 

panel - excess water on the control area may cause damage to the appliance. Do not

 

use other liquid cleaners, abrasive cleaners, scouring pads, or paper towels - they will

 

damage the finish. To remove control knobs, turn to the OFF position; grasp firmly and

 

pull straight off the shaft. To replace knobs after cleaning, line up the flat sides of both

 

the knob and the shaft; then push the knob into place.

Porcelain Enamel

Burner Grates, Cooktop Surface, Below Cooktop, Broiler Pan & Insert (some models), Door Liner, Oven Bottom & Burner Drip Pans

Clean burner grates, broiler pan and insert (some models) in the dishwasher and dry upon removal. If soils are not removed, follow the cooktop cleaning instructions below.

Gentle scouring with a soapy scouring pad will remove most spots. Rinse with a 1:1 solution of clear 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 cooktop.

use harsh scrubbing cleaners. Only use kitchen cleaners that are especially made for

 

 

 

cleaning stainless steel. Always be sure to rinse the cleaners off from the surface as

 

 

 

bluish stains may occur during heating that cannot be removed.

Oven Racks

Remove racks. See “To remove and to replace an oven rack” under Oven vent(s) and

 

 

 

racks. Use a mild, abrasive cleaner, following manufacturer’s instructions. Rinse with

 

 

 

clean water and dry. After cleaning the racks, rub the sides of the racks with wax paper

 

 

 

or a cloth containing a small amount of baby oil or salad oil (this will make the racks

 

 

 

 

 

 

glide easier into the rack positions).

CLEAN DOOR

Use soap & water to thoroughly clean the top, sides and 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.
