Cleaning The Range - Interior - GE PHS93XYPFS Owner's Manual

Cleaning the Range – Interior
The interior of your new oven can be cleaned manually or by using Steam Clean or Self Clean modes.
Spillage of marinades, fruit juices, tomato sauces and basting liquids containing acids may cause discoloration and
should be wiped up immediately. Let hot surfaces cool, then clean and rinse.
IMPORTANT: For models with Oven Camera in the door: If door glass or oven cavity light cover is not clean, camera
image clarity may be affected. Please follow directions below to properly clean the door glass. For best results, clean
door glass and oven light cover immediately after spillage once the oven has cooled.
Manual Cleaning
Do not use oven cleaners (unless certified for self-
cleaning oven), abrasive cleaners, strong liquid
cleansers, steel wool, or scouring pads on the interior
of the oven. For soils on the oven bottom and other
enameled surfaces, use a gentle abrasive containing
Steam Clean Mode
The Steam Clean feature is for cleaning light soil from
your oven at a lower temperature than Self Clean.
To use the Steam Clean feature:
1. Start with the oven at room temperature.
2. Wipe excess grease and soils from the oven.
3. Pour one cup of water onto the bottom of the oven.
4. Close the door.
Racks
All racks can be washed with warm, soapy water.
Enameled (not shiny) racks can be left in the cavity
during self clean.

scratch sponge. Take care not to apply any abrasive
cleaners or sponges to the door glass, as it will scratch
the reflective coating. The oven interior and door glass
may be cleaned using a soft cloth with a mild soap and
water, or vinegar and water solution. After cleaning, rinse
with clean water and dry with a soft cloth.
5. Touch the LCD screen, select Oven. Select More,
and then select Steam Clean.
Do not open the door during the 30 minute steam clean
as this will decrease the steam clean performance. At
the end of the Steam Clean cycle, soak up the remaining
water, and wipe the moisture-softened soil from the oven
walls and door.
Racks may be more difficult to slide, especially after
a self-clean. Put some vegetable oil on a soft cloth or
paper towel and rub onto the left and right edges.
