Porcelain ovenInterior

(on all models except Continuous-Cleaning Models)

With proper care, the porcelain enamel interior will retain its attractive finish for many years.

Soap and water will normally do the job. Heavy spattering or spillovers may require cleaning with a mild abrasive cleanser. Soapy, wet pads may also be used. Do not allow food spills with a high sugar or acid content (such as milk, tomatoes, sauertiaut, fruit juices or pie filling) to remain on the surface. They may cause dull spots even after cleaning.

Household ammonia may make the cleaning job easier. Place 1/2 cup ammonia in a shallow glass pan and leave in a cold oven overnight. The ammonia fumes will help loosen the burned-on grease and food.

Whennecessary,you may use a commercialoven cleaner.FO11OWthe packagedirections.
