Care and Cleaning

Cleaning Various Parts of Your Oven

Before cleaning any part of the oven, be sure all controls are turned off and the oven is cool. Remove spills and any heavy soiling as soon as possible. Regular cleaning will reduce the difficulty of major cleaning later.

Surface Type

Recommendation

 

 

Aluminum and Vinyl

Use hot, soapy water and a cloth. Dry with a clean cloth.

 

 

Painted body parts

Use a soft cloth and clean with mild dish detergent and water or a 50/50 solution of vinegar

Painted decorative trims

and water. Follow by rinsing the area with clean water; dry and polish with a soft cloth. Glass

cleaners may be used if sprayed on a soft cloth first. Do not spray liquids directly on the oven

 

 

control and display area. Do not use large amounts of water on the control panel. Excess

 

water on the control area may cause damage to the appliance. Do not use other liquid

 

cleaners, abrasive cleaners, scouring pads, or paper towels. They will damage the finish.

 

 

Stainless Steel

Clean the stainless with warm soapy water using a clean sponge or cloth. Rinse with clean

 

water and dry with a soft clean cloth. Do not use any store bought cleaners like stainless steel

 

cleaners or any other types of cleaners containing any abrasive, chlorides, chlorine, or

 

ammonia. It is recommended to use mild dish soap and water or a 50/50 solution of water

 

and vinegar.

Porcelain enamel broiler pan and insert (available by mail order)

Door liner and body parts

Gentle scouring with a soapy scouring 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 scouring pad. Rinse and wipe dry with a clean cloth. Remove all cleaners or the porcelain may become damaged during future heating.

Oven racks

Oven racks must be removed from oven cavity. Clean by using a mild, abrasive cleaner

 

following manufacturer’s instructions. Rinse with clean water and dry.

 

 

Oven door

Use soap and 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 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.

 

Do not clean the oven door gasket. On self-clean models, the oven door gasket is made of a

 

woven material which is essential for a good seal. Care should be taken not to rub, damage,

 

or remove this gasket.
