Read and follow the CARE AND CLEANING INSTRUCTIONS to ensure that proper oven operation and appearance will be maintained throughout the lifetime of the product. Several materials and finishes are used in the oven. Each material and finish must be properly cleaned according to the following recommendations. Failure to follow these recommendations may result in permanent damage to the oven.

Control Panel

To avoid accidentally turning the oven on while cleaning the control panel, activate the “Secure” feature. Press and hold the “CANCEL•SECURE” pad for approximately three seconds. This will disable the control panel and allow cleaning the controls without accidentally starting any functions. “OFF” will appear in the display when the control panel has been secured.

To re-activate the control panel, again push and hold the “CANCEL•SECURE” pad for three seconds. “OFF” will disappear from the display.

Clean the control panel with a solution of mild detergent and warm water. DO NOT USE ABRASIVE CLEANERS OR SCRUBBERS. THEY WILL PERMANENTLY DAMAGE THE FINISH. Dry the control panel completely with a soft, lint-free cloth.

Door Handle & Control Housing

Clean the door handle and control panel housing with a solution of mild detergent and hot water. Rinse and dry with a soft cloth. DO NOT USE ABRASIVE CLEANERS OR SCRUBBERS. THEY WILL PERMANENTLY DAMAGE THE FINISH.

Door Glass

Clean all glass surfaces with a solution of mild detergent and hot water. Use a mild glass cleaner to remove fingerprints or smears. Dry completely with a soft, lint-free cloth.

Stainless Steel Surfaces

On stainless steel ovens, the control panel, door(s) and exhaust grill are covered with stainless steel panels. Clean these surfaces with a solution of mild detergent and warm water. Rinse and dry with a soft, lint-free cloth.

If commercially available stainless steel cleaners are used, it is important to read the labels for chlorine compounds. Chlorine is a corrosive substance. If these compounds are present, rinse thoroughly and dry with a soft, lint-free cloth.

Always wipe stainless steel surfaces with the grain.

Porcelain Surfaces

The oven interior and inner door liners are finished in porcelain enamel. Clean these surfaces with a solution of mild detergent and hot water. Rinse and dry with a soft cloth. Do not use abrasives or commercial oven cleaners. Always remove excess grease and soil from the oven interior and door prior to using the Self-Cleaning cycle.

If a commercially available polish is used, it is important to read the label for chlorine compounds. Chlorine is a corrosive substance and is not recommended for use with brass, copper or chrome finishes. If these compounds are present, rinse surface thoroughly and dry with a soft, lint-free cloth.

Follow manufacturerʼs instructions for application of polish.

Broiler Pan and Grill

The oven broiler pan and grill is finished in porcelain enamel. Clean both components in a solution of detergent and hot water. For heavy soil conditions, use a scouring pad such as steel wool with plenty of water. Rinse well after cleaning

Oven Racks

Oven racks are chrome-plated. For everyday cleaning, apply a solution of detergent and hot water. To clean heavy soil, use a scouring pad such as steel wool with plenty of water, or use a solution of 1 cup ammonia to 2 gallons of water. Remove racks during Self-Cleaning. If racks are left in the oven during self-cleaning, they will permanently discolor.
