Body Parts and Decorative	built-up grease, apply a liquid detergent directly onto the soil. Leave on soil for 30
Trim	to 60 minutes. Rinse with a damp cloth and dry. DO NOT use abrasive cleaners,
	spray cleaners or scouring pads on any of these materials. These cleaners can
	permanently damage the control pad surface.
Porcelain Enamel	Gentle scouring with a soapy scouring pad will remove most spots. Rinse with a
Broiler Pan and Grid,	1:1 solution of clear water and ammonia. If necessary, cover difficult spots with an
Door Liner, Oven Bottom	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

	during future heating.
Stainless Steel, Chrome	Clean with hot, soapy water and a dishcloth. Rinse with clean water and a cloth.
Decorative Trim	Cover stubborn spots with an ammonia-soaked paper towel for 30 to 40 minutes.
	Rinse. Cleaners made especially for stainless steel are recommended. Be sure to
	rinse the cleaners as bluish stains may occur during heating and cannot be
	removed.
Oven Rack(s)	Remove oven racks during the self-clean cycle. Clean by using a mild, abrasive
	cleaner following manufacturer's instructions. Rinse with clean water and dry.
	After the self-clean cycle is completed and the oven has cooled, rub the sides of
	the racks with wax paper or a cloth containing a small amount of baby oil or salad
	oil (this will make the racks glide easier into the rack positions).
Oven Door	To clean oven door, wash with hot, soapy water and a clean cloth. DO NOT
	immerse the door in water. DO NOT clean the oven door gasket. The oven door
	gasket is essential for a good seal. Care should be taken not to rub, damage or
	remove the gasket.
