CARE AND MAINTENANCE

OVEN HEATING ELEMENTS

• Do not clean the bake element or the broil element. Any soil will burn off

when the elements are heated.

• The bake element can be lifted gently to clean the oven ﬂ oor. Do not

attempt to clean any oven surface when any burner element is on. Always

wear protective hand-wear when cleaning interior oven surfaces or

surfaces near heating elements. If spillovers, residue or ash accumulate

around the bake element, gently wipe around the element with warm water.

GLASS WINDOW (on some models)

• To clean the outside glass ﬁ nish, use a glass cleaner. Rinse and polish with a dry cloth. Avoid scratching or impacting

the glass window. Doing so may cause the glass to break.

CONTROL KNOBS

• The control knobs may be removed for easier cleaning.

• Make sure the knobs are in the OFF positions and pull them straight off the stems for cleaning.

• The knobs can be cleaned in a dishwasher or they may also be washed with soap and water. Make sure the insides

of the knobs are dry before replacing.

• Replace the knobs in the OFF position to ensure proper placement.

PAINTED SURFACES

• Painted surfaces include the sides, control panel, door and kick panel. Clean these with soap and water or a vinegar

and water solution.

• Do not use commercial oven cleaners, cleansing powders, steel wool or harsh abrasives on any painted surface.

PORCELAIN OVEN INTERIOR

• With proper care, the porcelain enamel interior will retain its attractive ﬁ nish for many years.

• Soap and water will normally do the job. Heavy spattering or spillovers may require cleaning with a mild abrasive

cleanser. Soapy, wet pads may also be used. Do not allow food spills with a high sugar or acid content (such as

milk, tomatoes, sauerkraut, fruit juices or pie ﬁ lling) to remain on the surface. They may cause dull spots even after

cleaning.

• Household ammonia may make the cleaning job easier. Place 1/2 cup ammonia in a shallow glass pan and leave in a

cold oven overnight. The ammonia fumes will help loosen the burned-on grease and food.

• When necessary, you may use a commercial oven cleaner. Follow the package directions.

Cautions about using spray-on oven cleaners:

• Do not spray the oven cleaner on the electrical controls and switches, because it could cause a short circuit and result

in sparking or ﬁ re.

• Do not directly spray oven cleaner onto the oven heating elements.
