Care and Cleaning

Proper care and cleaning are important so your oven will give you efficient and satisfactory service. Follow these directions carefully in caring for your oven to assure safe and proper maintenance.

Oven Shelves

Oven shelves may be cleaned with a mild abrasive cleanser following manufacturer’s directions. After cleaning, rinse the shelves with clean water and dry with a

clean cloth.

To remove heavy, burned-on soil, soapy metal pads may be used following manufacturer’s directions. After scrubbing, wash with soapy water, rinse and dry.

Oven shelves may be cleaned in the self-cleaning oven. Note: Shelves will discolor during the self-cleaning cycle.

Broiler Pan & Rack

After broiling, remove the broiler pan from the oven. Remove the rack from the pan. Carefully pour out the grease in the pan into a proper container. Wash and rinse the pan and rack in hot, soapy water.

If food has burned on, sprinkle the rack while hot with detergent and cover with wet paper towels or a dish cloth. That way, burned-on foods will soak loose while the meal is being served.

Do not store a soiled broiler pan and rack in the oven. Do not clean in self-cleaning oven.
