CARE AND CLEANING

(continued)

Lift-Off Oven Door

The oven door is

removable, but it is heavy. You may need help removing and replacing the door. Do not lift the

door by the handle. This can cause the glass to break or can cause

damage to the door.

To remove the door,

open it a few inches to the special stop position that will hold the door open. Grasp firmly on each side and lift the door straight up and off the hinges.

NOTE:

•Be careful not to place hands between the hinge and the oven door frame as the hinge could snap back and pinch fingers.

•While working in the oven area, cover the hinges with towels or empty paper towel rolls to prevent pinched fingers and chipping the porcelain enamel on the frame.

To replace the door, make sure the hinges are in the special stop position. Position the slots in the bottom of the door squarely over the hinges. Then lower the door slowly and evenly over both hinges at the same time. If hinges snap back against the oven frame, pull them back out.

TO CLEAN THE DOOR:

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. Any soap left on the liner causes additional stains when the oven is heated.

•The area outside the gasket can be cleaned with a soap-filled scouring pad.

•Do not rub or clean the door gasket—the fiberglass material of the gasket has an extremely low resistance to abrasion. An intact and well-fitting oven door gasket is essential for energy-efficient oven operation and good baking results. 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.

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

Outside of the door:

•Use soap and water to thoroughly clean the top, sides and front of the oven door. DO NOT let water run down through openings in the top of the door. Rinse well. You may also use a glass cleaner to clean the glass on the outside of the door.

•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, cleansing powders or harsh abrasives on the outside of the door.

Oven Shelves

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

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

Wipe the shelf supports with cooking oil after self- cleaning to make the shelves slide more easily.
