Gentle scrubbing with a soapy no-scratch cleaning 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, and then scrub with a soap-filled no- scratch cleaning pad. Rinse and wipe dry with a clean cloth. Do not allow food spills with high sugar or acid content (milk, tomatoes, sauerkraut, fruit juices or pie filling) to remain on the surface; they may cause a dull spot even after cleaning.

• Oven interior

Remove excessive spillovers from oven cavity bottom before starting self-

 

clean. Clean any soils from oven frame and door liner outside the oven door

 

gasket. For very important preparation information be sure to read all the

 

instructions in the self-cleaning section.

Oven racks must be removed from oven. Do not clean oven racks in

 

oven during the self-clean cycle. Remove and clean using a mild, abrasive

 

cleaner following manufacturer's instructions. Thoroughly rinse and dry.

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
