Instructions Care and Cleaning Operating Instructions Safety

Lift the door straight up and off the hinges.

The gasket is designed with a gap at the bottom to allow for proper air circulation.

Do not rub or clean the door gasket—it has an extremely low resistance to abrasion.

If you notice the gasket becoming worn, frayed or damaged in any way or if it has become displaced on the door, you should have it replaced.

Lift-Off Oven Door

The oven door is removable for cleaning.

Do not lift the door by the handle.

To remove the door, open it to the special stop position. Grasp firmly on each side and lift the door straight up and off the hinges.

Do not place hands between the hinge and the oven door frame.

To replace the door, make sure the hinges are in the special stop position. Position the slots in the bottom of the door squarely over the hinges and slowly lower it over both hinges.

To clean the inside of the door:

(on self-clean models)

■Because the area inside the gasket is cleaned during the self-clean cycle, you do not need to clean this by hand.

■The area outside the gasket and the front frame can be cleaned with a soap-filled scouring pad, hot water and detergent. Rinse well with a vinegar and water solution.

To clean the inside of the door:

(on standard clean models)

■Soap and water will normally do the job. Heavy spattering or spillovers may require cleaning with a mild abrasive cleaner. Soapy, wet metal pads may also be used.

Do not allow food spills with a high sugar or acid content (such as milk, tomatoes, sauerkraut, fruit juices or pie filling) to remain on the surface. They may cause a dull spot even after cleaning.

■If necessary, you may use an oven cleaner. Follow the package directions.

■Clean the inside of the oven window with a mild non-scratching cleaner and a damp cloth.

To clean the outside of the door:

■Use soap and water to thoroughly clean the top, sides and front of the oven door. Rinse well. You may also use a glass cleaner to clean the glass on the outside of the door. Do not let water drip into the vent openings.

■Spillage of marinades, fruit juices, tomato sauces and basting materials containing acids may cause discoloration and should be wiped up immediately. When surface is cool, clean and rinse.

■Do not use oven cleaners, cleaning powders or harsh abrasives on the outside of the door.

Troubleshooting Tips Installation

Glass Window (on some models)

To clean the outseide glass finish, use a glass cleaner. Rinse and polish with a dry cloth.

Oven Heating Elements

Do not clean the bake element or the broil element.

Any soil will burn off when the elements are heated.

To clean the oven floor, gently lift the bake element. Clean with warm soapy water.
