Control panel

Control key pad membrane Decorative trim (some models)

Before cleaning the control panel, turn all controls OFF, activate oven lockout (on some models) and if needed remove any knobs from panel. Do not use abrasive cleaners on any of these materials; they can scratch. Clean using hot, soapy water and a dishcloth. Be sure to squeeze excess water from dishcloth before wiping control panel; especially when wiping around the controls area. Excess water in or around the controls may cause damage to the appliance. When rinsing, use clean water and a dishcloth and be sure to squeeze excess water from dishcloth before wiping the control panel.

Porcelain enamel parts & door liner

Gentle scubbing 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

For oven interior remove excessive spillovers from oven cavity bottom before

 

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

 

oven door gasket. For very important cleaning precautions be sure to read all the

 

instructions in the Select Clean section.

 

 

Oven racks

Remove oven racks from oven cavity before starting Select Clean. Clean by using a

 

mild, abrasive cleaner following manufacturer's instructions. Rinse with clean water,

 

dry and then replace in oven.

 

 

Oven 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.

 

 

Ceramic cooktop

Do not use spray oven cleaners on the cooktop. See “Cooktop cleaning” and

 

“Cooktop maintenance” later in the Care & Cleaning section.

 

 

Stainless Steel (some models)

Only use cleaners and polishes that are specifically manufactured for cleaning

 

stainless steel. Always rub in direction of metal grain to avoid damaging. Do not use

 

cleaners with high concentrations of chlorides or chlorine. Do not use harsh

 

scrubbing cleaners. Polish with a lint-free cloth. Always be sure to wipe excess

 

cleaner/polish off from the metal surface as bluish stains may occur during future

 

oven heating that cannot be removed. Clean heavier soils with hot, soapy water and

 

a dishcloth. Rinse and dry using clean water and a cloth.
