Cooktop – Glass-Ceramic

Never use oven cleaners, chlorine bleach, ammonia or glass cleaners with ammonia. Important: Call an authorized servicer if the glass-ceramic top should crack, break or if metal or aluminum foil should melt on the cooktop.

Allow the cooktop to cool before cleaning.

General – Clean cooktop after each use, or when needed, with a damp paper towel and Cooktop Cleaning Creme* (Part No. 20000001)**. Then, buff with a clean, dry cloth.

Important: Permanent stains will develop if soil is allowed to cook on by repeatedly using the cooktop when soiled.

Heavy Soils or Metal Marks – Dampen a “scratchless” or “never scratch” scrubber sponge. Apply Cooktop Cleaning Creme* (Part No. 20000001)** and scrub to remove as much soil as possible. Apply a thin layer of the creme over the soil, cover with a damp paper towel and let stand 30 to 45 minutes (2-3 hours for very heavy soil). Keep moist by covering the paper towel with plastic wrap. Scrub again, then buff with a clean dry cloth.

Important: Only use a CLEAN, DAMP “scratchless” pad that is safe for non-stick cookware. The pattern and glass will be damaged if the pad is not damp, if the pad is soiled, or if another type of pad is used.

Burned-on or Crusty Soils – Scrub with a “scratchless” or “never scratch” scouring pad and Cooktop Cleaning Creme*.

Important: Hold a razor blade scraper at 30° angle and scrape any remaining soil. Then, clean as described above. Do not use the razor blade for daily cleaning as it may wear the pattern on the glass.

Melted Sugar or Plastic – Immediately turn element to Low and scrape sugar or plastic from hot surface to a cool area. Then turn element OFF and allow to cool. Clean residue with razor blade scraper and Cooktop Cleaning Creme*.

Oven Window and Door – Glass

Avoid using excessive amounts of water which may seep under or behind glass, causing staining.

Wash with soap and water. Rinse with clear water and dry. Glass cleaner can be used if sprayed on a cloth first.

Do not use abrasive materials such as scouring pads, steel wool or powdered cleaners as they will scratch glass.

Oven Interior

Oven Racks

Clean with soapy water.

Remove stubborn soil with cleansing powder or soap-filled scouring pad. Rinse and dry.

Racks will permanently discolor and may not slide smoothly if left in the oven during a self-clean operation. If this occurs, wipe the rack edge and rack support with a small amount of vegetable oil to restore ease of movement, then wipe off excess oil.

Spray*.

Discoloration –– Using a damp sponge or

soft cloth, wipe with Cameo Stainless Steel Cleaner*. Rinse immediately and dry. To remove streaks and restore luster, follow with Stainless Steel Magic Spray*.

Storage Drawer, Door Handle, Side Panels – Painted Enamel

When cool, wash with warm soapy water, rinse and dry. Never wipe a warm or hot surface with a damp cloth as this may damage the surface and may cause a steam burn.

For stubborn soil, use mildly abrasive cleaning agents such as baking soda paste or Bon Ami.* Do not use abrasive, caustic or harsh cleaning agents such as steel wool pads or oven cleaners. These products will scratch or permanently damage the surface.

Important: Use a dry towel or cloth to wipe up spills, especially acidic or sugary spills. Surface may discolor or dull if soil is not immediately removed. This is especially important for white surfaces.
