CLEANING & MAINTENANCENOTE: Disconnect line cord from power supply before
cleaning or servicing.
Break-In Period
When oven is new, operate it for one hour at 450°F before you
begin your normal cooking operation. After cooling, wipe the
interior, including the racks, with a clean damp cloth.
Exterior Cleaning
Establish a regular schedule. Any spills should be wiped o
immediately.
1. The oven should always be allowed to cool suciently
before any cleaning is attempted.
2. Wipe exposed, cleanable surface when cool with a mild
detergent and hot water. Stubborn residue spots may be
removed with a lightweight non-metallic scouring pad.
Dry thoroughly with a clean cloth.
3. Painted surfaces should be cleaned using a mild soap
and warm water solution on a sponge or soft Cloth. Dry
thoroughly.
4. Stainless Steel surfaces can often be cleaned adequately
with the same method. Stubborn stains may be removed
by using a non-metallic abrasive pad, rubbing in the
direction of the metal's grain. If necessary, for particularly
heavy deposits, you may mix a thin paste of water and
scouring powder, and apply it with a sponge. Be careful
to apply light pressure and remember to rub only in the
direction of the grain in the metal.
5. The control panel surface is easily cleaned with hot water,
soap and a soft cloth. Do not use hard abrasives, solvent
type materials or metallic scouring pads since these will
scratch or cloud the surface.
6. Never spray the perforated areas or control panel with
steam or water, as this will allow moisture into the control
cavity, which could damage electrical components.
Interior Cleaning
Establish a regular cleaning schedule or wipe o on the same
day when spillovers occur.
1. Cool down oven.
2. Remove oven racks.
3. Lift rack guides on either side of oven o of holders. Racks
and guides may be run through dishwasher while oven
cavity is being cleaned.
4. Clean with soap and water using a non-metallic scouring
pad, if necessary. If dirt and grease have accumulated, a
mild ammonia solution or commercial oven cleaner such
as Easy-O or Dow may be used.
5. To reinstall, reverse procedure. Place the bottom of the
rack guide against the cavity wall. Keeping the top pulled
away from the wall lift up. Push the top of the rack guide
against the wall and push down locking it into place.
Fan Area Maintenance
If aluminum foil is routinely used to wrap food or cooking
vessels during oven operation, the following preventive
maintenance must be performed:
1. Turn power switch to "OFF" position.
2. Remove oven racks and rack guides.
3. Remove air bae and clean any stains or deposits.
4. Check blower wheel and air bae for particles of
aluminum foil or food deposits. Clean ns of blower
wheel. (Caution: edges of blower wheel ns may be
sharp).
5. Reinstall the air bae, rack guides and oven racks.
This simple practice, if performed on a regular basis will
keep your Garland oven operating at peak performance.
