Oven Cleaning
Cleaning the Regular Oven (non self-clean oven, some models)
Make sure the oven is cool and that all control knobs are et OFF position. Cleaning the
oven is a lot easier when the door is removed.
1. Remove the oven door; see under To Remove and Replace the Oven Door in this Owner's
Guide.
2. Empty the oven including the racks.
3. You can wash the broiler pan, grid and racks in the kitchen sink.
4. Clean oven lining thoroughly with soap and a wet cloth and wipe with a dry cloth.
To remove burned-on fat on oven walls, moisten soiled parts with household ammonia,
using a wet cloth. Follow suggested manufacturer's cleaning method. (Do not remove the
oven door when using ammonia.)
Complete cleaning with a damp cloth and use a fine steel wool scouring agent if necessary.
The lower element can be moved up for cleaning purposes.
5. Replace racks in the oven. Reinstall oven door.
Care & Cleaning
Do not use the following on the ceramic glass cooktop:
• Do not use abrasive cleaners and scouring pads, such as metal and some
nylon pads. They may scratch the cooktop, making it more difficult to clean.
• Do not use harsh cleaners, such as chlorine bleach, ammonia or oven
cleaners, as they may etch or discolor the cooktop.
• Do not use dirty sponges, cloths or paper towels, as they can leave soil or lint
on the cooktop which can burn and cause discoloration.
Special Caution for Aluminum Foil and Aluminum Cooking Utensils
•
Aluminum foil
Use of aluminum foil will damage the cooktop. Do not use under any circum-
stances.
•
Aluminum utensils
Since the melting point of aluminum is much lower than that of other metals, care must be taken when aluminum pots
or pans are used. Pans that boil dry may permanently damage cooktop by breaking, fusing to, or marking it.
Care and Cleaning of Stainless Steel
(Stainless Steel models only)
Some models are equipped with stainless steel exterior parts. Special care and cleaning are
required
for maintaining the
appearance of stainless parts. Please refer to the table provided at the beginning of the
General Care & Cleaning
section
in this Use & Care Guide.
