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.

 

 

Fiberglass 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.
