Cavity	Porcelain enamel is acid resistant, but not acid proof. Acid foods
Porcelain Enamel	such as citrus juices, tomatoes, rhubarb, vinegar, alcohol or milk,
on Steel	should be wiped up and not allowed to bake onto the porcelain during
	the next use. Over a period of time, the porcelain may craze (get fine
	hairlike lines) This will not affect oven performance.
Large Main Oven
	See Self-Cleaning instructions, Pages 31 and 32.
	NOTE: Due to the high temperatures used for self-cleaning, the
	oven may develop fine hairlike lines or surface roughness. This
	is a common condition and does not affect either the cooking
	or the cleaning performance of the oven.
Secondary Oven	Hot sudsy water.
	• Wash, rinse thoroughly, and dry.
	Mild Cleaners: Bon-ami®, ammonia, or ammonia and water, Soft
	Scrub®.
	• Apply to a damp sponge or cloth. Rub lightly. Rinse thoroughly.
	Dry. If food has burned onto the oven and is difficult to remove,
	the spots can be soaked with a cloth saturated with household
	ammonia. Close the door and allow it to soak for an hour or two,
	or until the food soil can be easily removed with a damp soapy
	cloth or mild abrasive. A solution of about 3 tablespoons of
	household ammonia in a half cup of water may be placed in the
	warm oven over night. This will loosen hardened residue and
	spillage so that it may be easily wiped up. The ammonia solution
	may be added to warm water for a thorough wiping of the oven.
