Care and cleaning of the cooking center.

Instructions Safety

Oven Shelves (lower oven)

Clean the oven shelves with an abrasive cleanser or steel wool. After cleaning, rinse the shelves and rack with clean water and dry with a clean cloth.

NOTE: The oven shelves may be cleaned in the self-cleaning oven. However, the shelves will darken in color, lose their luster and become hard to slide if cleaned during the self-cleaning cycle.

To make the shelves slide more easily apply a small amount of vegetable oil or cooking oil to a paper towel and wipe the edges of the oven shelves with the paper towel.

Troubleshooting Tips Care and Cleaning Operating

Lift the door straight up and off the hinges.

The gasket is designed with a gap at the bottom to allow for proper air circulation.

Do not rub or clean the door gasket—it has an extremely low resistance to abrasion.

If you notice the gasket becoming worn, frayed or damaged in any way or if it has become displaced on the door, you should have it replaced.

Lift-Off Oven Door (lower oven)

The lower oven door is removable for easier access to the light bulb.

Do not lift the door by the handle.

To remove the door, open it to the broil stop position. Grasp firmly on each side and lift the door straight up and off the hinges.

Do not place hands between the hinge and the oven door frame.

To replace the door, make sure the hinges are in the broil stop position. Position the slots in the bottom of the door squarely over the hinges and slowly lower it over both hinges.

To clean the inside of the door:

■Because the area inside the gasket is cleaned during the self-clean cycle, you do not need to clean this by hand.

■The area outside the gasket and the front frame can be cleaned with a soap- filled steel wool or plastic pad, hot water and detergent. Rinse well with a vinegar and water solution.

To clean the outside of the door:

■Use soap and water to thoroughly clean the top, sides and front of the oven door. Rinse well. You may also use a glass cleaner to clean the glass on the outside of the door. Do not let water drip into the vent openings.

■Spillage of marinades, fruit juices, tomato sauces and basting materials containing acids may cause discoloration and should be wiped up immediately. When surface is cool, clean and rinse.

■Do not use oven cleaners, cleaning powders or harsh abrasives on the outside of the door.
