Recommendations

 

 

Racks

Wash with hot sudsy water. Rinse thoroughly and dry, or gently rub with cleansing powder or

 

soap filled pads as directed. If racks are cleaned in the oven during the self-clean mode, they

 

will lose their shiny finish and may not glide smoothly. If this happens, wipe the rack edges with

 

a small amount of vegetable oil, then wipe off excess.

 

 

Door Gasket

DO NOT HAND CLEAN GASKET.

 

 

Glass

Wash with soap and water or glass cleaner. Use Fantastik® or Formula 409® to remove grease

 

spatters and stubborn stains.

 

 

Painted Surfaces

Clean with hot sudsy water or apply Fantastik® or Formula 409® to a clean sponge or paper

 

towel and wipe clean. Avoid using powdered cleansers, steel wool pads and oven cleaners.

 

 

Porcelain Surfaces

Immediately wipe up acid spills like fruit juice, milk and tomatoes with a dry towel. Do not use a

 

moistened sponge/towel on hot porcelain. When cool, clean with hot sudsy water or apply Bon-

 

Ami® or Soft Scrub® to a damp sponge. Rinse and dry. For stubborn stains, use soap filled

 

pads. It is normal for porcelain to show fine lines with age due to exposure to heat and food soil.

 

 

Stainless Surfaces

Always wipe or rub with grain. Clean with a soapy sponge then rinse and dry, or wipe with Fan-

 

tastik® or Formula 409® sprayed onto a paper towel. Protect and polish with Stainless Steel

 

Magic® and a soft cloth. Remove water spots with a cloth dampened with white vinegar. Use

 

Bar Keeper’s Friend® to remove heat discoloration.
