Your continuous cleaning ovens
How a Continuous Cleaning Oven Works:
A standard oven has walls with a smooth porcelain enamel finish. A Continuous Cleaning Oven also has a porcelain enamel finish with one important difference: instead of being smooth, like glass. the walls of a Continuous Cleaning Oven are a little rougher.. like the surface of a brick. A fat spatter will form a solid drop on a smooth surface But on the rougher surface in a Continuous Cleaning Oven. a fat spatter spreads out to a very thin layer.
Think of the difference between a drop of water on a piece of waxed paper and one on a paper towel. The water on the waxed paper will stay together in a bead. The water on the rougher paper towel will spread out over a larger area This is about what happens to a fat spatter in a Continuous Cleaning Oven. Instead of a bead of fat that turns into black charred material when heated. the fat spatter spreads out. Then, when the oven is used for baking and roasting. the fat gradually burns away. The rougher surface returns to a presentably clean condition.
This is a gradual process: it does not happen right away. The walls continuously clean themselves, but only when the oven is set for the medium to high temperatures during baking or roasting. The oven can be presentably clean iwith little or no hand cleaning.. depending on how It is used.
The continuous cleaning process does not apply to uncoated parts like the lower oven window. oven racks and the inslde of the upper oven door.
Soils that are removed.. and those that are not:
Fat spatters from meat roasting. oven frying and broiling are the usual oven soils. The5 can be continuously cleaned away most of the time
Spillovers from pies and casseroles. sugars and starches. and other soils that fall to the bottom of the oven are very hard to remove. That is why
Caring for your Continuous Cleaning Ovens:
Follow trusted recipes for baking. roasting and broiling. They will give time. temperature and pan recommendations to help avoid smoke. spatter and spillovers.
2.Keep heavyduty aluminum foil on the bottom of the ovens. If foil is not used, and something spills over, it may leave a permanent stain.
c‘3 The oven racks should be kept clean with hot. sudsy water. Use soapy

Keplacing aluminum foil on the oven bottom:
You can use the heavyduty l&inch (45 cm) aluminum foil found in most grocery store5 Or you can order an aluminum foil kit (Part Number
1.When cutting thtl foil, make sure it is long enough to cover the bottom with enough left over to start up both sides.
2.Make sure the bake element is cool. Lift it far enough to raise Its feet from the bottom of the oven. (You may have to remove an oven rack I
