Special Care of Continuous-Cleaning Oven lnteriOr (on some models)

The Continuous-Cleaning Oven cleans itself while cooking. The oven walls are finished with a special coating that cannot be cleaned in the usual manner with soap, detergents, steel wool pads, commercial oven cleaners, coarse abrasive pads or coarse brushes. Use of such cleansers andor the use of oven sprays will cause permanent damage.

The special coating is a porous ceramic material,

which is dark in color and feels slightly rough to the touch. If magnified, the surface would appear as peaks, valleys and sub-surface “tunnels.” This rough finish tends to prevent grease spatters from forming little beads or droplets that run down the side walls of a hard-surface oven liner, leaving unsightly streaks that require hand cleaning. Instead, when spatter hits the porous finish, it is dispersed and partially absorbed. This spreading action increases the exposure of oven soil to heated air and makes it somewhat less noticeable.

Soil may not dkappear completely and at some time after extended usage, stains may appear that cannot be removed.

This special coating works best on small amounts of spatter. It does not work well with larger spills, especially sugars, egg or dairy mixtures. The oven bottom does not have the continuous cleaning oven coating and can be removed and cleaned with a commercial oven cleaner.

This special coating is not used on oven shelves, the oven bottom or on the inside of the oven door.

Remove these to clean with a commercial oven cleaner to prevent damaging the Continuous-Cleaning Oven coating.

Make sure the oven bottom is in place before you turn the oven on for any reason.

Use care in removing and replacing the oven bottom and shelves and in placing and removing dishes and food to avoid scratching, rubbing or otherwise damaging the porous finish on the oven walls.

To Clean the Continuous-Cleaning Oven:

1.Let range parts cool before handling. We recommend rubber gloves be worn when cleaning.

2.Remove the shelves and cookware.

3.Soil visibility maybe reduced by operating the oven at 400°F. Close the door and turn the OVEN CONTROL knob to 400°F. Time for at least 4 hours. Repeated cycles may be necess~ before improvement in appearance is apparent.

Remember: During the operation of the oven, the door and other range surfaces will get hot enough to cause burns. Do not touch. Let the range cool before replacing oven shelves.

4.If a spillover or heavy soiling occurs on the porous surface, as soon as the oven has cooled, remove as much of the soil as possible using a small amount of water and a stiff-bristle nylon brush. Use water sparingly and change it frequently, keeping it as clean as possible, and be sure to blot it up with paper towels, cloths or sponges. Do not rub or scrub with paper towels, cloths or sponges, since they will leave unsightly lint on the oven finish. If water leaves a white ring on the finish as it dries, apply water again and blot it with a clean sponge, starting at the edge of the ring and working toward the center.

Do not use soap, detergent, steel wool pads, commercial oven cleaner, silicone oven sprays, coarse pads or coarse brushes on the porous surface. These products will spot, clog and damage the porous surface and reduce its ability to work.

Do not scrape the porous surface with a knife or spatula— they could permanently damage the finish.

The oven bottom has a porcelain enamel finish. The oven bottom comes out for cleaning away from the Continuous-Cleaning Oven.

The inside of the oven door has a porcelain enamel finish. The oven door lifts off for cleaning away from the Continuous-Cleaning Oven. For instructions on how to clean the inside of the oven door refer to the Oven Door section.

Metal Parts

Do not use steel wool, abrasives, ammonia or commercial oven cleaners. To safely clean surfaces; wash, rinse and then dry with a soft cloth.

Glass Surfaces

To clean the outside glass finish, use a glass cleaner. Rinse and polish with a dry cloth. Do not allow the water or cleaner to run down inside openings in the top of the oven door while cleaning.

Painted Surfaces

Painted surfaces include the outside oven door, sides, control panel and drawer front. Clean these with soap and water or a vinegar and water solution. Do not use commercial oven cleaners, cleansing powders, steel wool or harsh abrasives on any painted surface.
