It’s a good idea to wipe the control panel
after each use. Clean with mild soap and
water or vinegar and water, rinse with
clean water and polish dry with a soft
cloth.
Do not use abrasive cleansers, strong
liquid cleansers, plastic scouring pads or
oven cleaners on the control panel—they
will damage the finish. A 50/50 solution
of vinegar and hot water works well.

Broiler Pan & Grid (lower oven)
Do not clean the broiler pan or grid in a
self-cleaning oven.
After broiling, remove the broiler pan
from the oven. Remove the grid from the
pan. Carefully pour out the grease from
the pan into a proper container.
Wash and rinse the broiler pan and grid
in hot water with a soap-filled or plastic
scouring pad.
If food has burned on, sprinkle the grid
with detergent while hot and cover with
wet paper towels or a dishcloth. Soaking
the pan will remove burned-on foods.
Both the broiler pan and grid may be
cleaned with a commercial oven cleaner.
Both the broiler pan and grid can also be
cleaned in a dishwasher.
Do not store a soiled broiler pan and grid
anywhere in the cooking center.
After broiling, remove the broiler
pan from the oven.

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.
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.
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.
Lower Oven Heating Elements
Do not clean the bake element or the broil
element. Any soil will burn off when the
elements are heated.
To clean the oven floor, gently lift the bake
element. Clean with warm soapy water.
