Removable Oven Bottom
First remove the racks from the oven. The oven
bottom lifts from the rear. Grasp each side of the
oven bottom and lift upward from the rear until the
bottom is clear, lift it to remove from the front.
NOTE:
If the oven bottom is replaced incorrectly,
it may warp and cause undesirable baking results.
The oven bottom has a porcelain enamel finish
. To make cleaning easier, protect the
oven bottom from excessive spillovers. This is particularly important when baking a fruit
pie or other foods with high acid content. Hot fruit fillings or foods that are acidic in
content, such as milk, tomato or sauerkraut, and sauces with vinegar or lemon juice, may
cause pitting and damage to the porcelain enamel surface.
To protect the oven bottom surface, place a piece of aluminum foil slightly larger than the
baking dish on the rack below to catch any boilovers. It should not completely cover the
rack as this would cause uneven heat in the oven. Aluminum foil should not be placed on
the oven bottom.
If a spillover does occur on the oven bottom,
allow the oven to cool first. You can
clean the bottom with soap and water, a mild abrasive cleanser, soap-filler abrasive pads
or an oven cleaner following package directions.
Broiler Compartment
The broiler pan is held in place by a wire broiler rack. To open the broiler, gently lift up
and pull forward on the drop down broiler door. Pull the broiler pan forward. It will
reach a temporary stop position. Continue to pull forward and the broiler pan will pull
out to expose the entire broiler grill surface.
Remove the broiler pan from the broiler rack by
lifting up on the front of the broiler pan so it will
clear the wire rack. Then pull forward slightly
and use both hands to lift the pan free of the
rack. To return the pan to the broiler rack, pull
the wire rack out to the stop position. Insert the
pan into the recessed section of the broiler rack.
Slide the pan in place under the pan retainers.
Push the pan to the rear of the broiler
compartment. Close the broiler door.
