Oven Surfaces

Several different finishes have been used in your self-clean oven. Cleaning instructions for each surface are given below. Your oven features a self-clean cycle for the oven interior. See the self-clean section for complete instructions.

NEVERS USE AMMONIA, STEEL WOOL PADS, ABRASIVE CLOTHS, ABRASIVE CLEANERS, CAUSTIC OVEN CLEANERS, OR ABRASIVE POWDERS. THEY CAN PERMANENTLY DAMAGE YOUR OVEN.

Control Knobs

MAKE SURE THE CONTROL KNOBS POINT TO THE OFF POSITION BEFORE REMOVING. Pull the knobs straight off. Wash in detergent and warm water. Do not soak knobs. Dry completely and replace by pushing firmly onto stem. DO NOT USE any cleaners containing ammonia or abrasives. They could remove the graphics from the knob.

Stainless Steel Parts

All stainless steel parts should be wiped regularly with hot, soapy water at the end of each cooling period and with liquid stainless steel cleaner when soapy water will not do the job. Do not use steel wool, abrasive cloths, abrasive cleaners, or powders. If necessary to scrap stainless steel to remove encrusted materials, soak the area with hot towels to loosen the material, then use a wooden or nylon spatula or scraper. Do not use a metal knife, spatula, or any other metal tool to scrape stainless steel. For occasional heavy cleaning use, a cleaner such as LIquid Zud can be used according to package directions. Do not permit citrus or tomato juice to remain on stainless steel surface, as citric acid will permanently discolor stainless steel. Wipe up any spills immediately.

Glass Door Window Surface (Not Glass Ceramic Top)

Clean with detergent and water. Mild glass cleaner will remove fingerprints.

Broiler Pan and Grid

Clean with detergent and hot water. For stubborn spots, use a soap- filled steel wool pad.

Brass Parts

CAUTION: All brass special ordered parts are coated with an epoxy coating. DO NOT USE BRASS OR ABRASIVE CLEANERS ON THE BRASS OPTION PARTS. All brass parts should be wiped regularly with hot soapy water.

Oven Racks

Clean with detergent and hot water. Stubborn spots can be scoured with a soap-filled steel wool pad. DO NOT CLEAN THE OVEN RACKS OR RACK SUPPORTS USING THE SELF-CLEAN CYCLE. They could sustain damage due to the extreme heat of the Self-Clean cycle.

Self-Clean Cycle

CAUTION:

Do not touch the exterior portions of the oven after self-cleaning cycle has begun, since some parts become extremely hot to the touch!

During the first few times the self-cleaning feature is used, there may be some odor and smoking from the “curing” of teh binder in the high-density insulation used in the oven. When the insulation is thorougly cured, this odor will disappear. During subsequent self- cleaning cycles, you may sense an odor characteristic of high temperatures.

KEEP THE KITCHEN WELL-VENTED DURING THE SELF-CLEAN

CYCLE.

WARNING:

BURN OR ELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZARD

Make sure all control are OFF and oven is COOL before cleaning. Failure to do so can result in burns or electrical shock.

IMPORTANT

Do not clean, move, wet, or bend door gasket. Poor cleaning and baking may result.
