CARE AND CLEANING
(contilmed)
Oven Shelves
Clean the shelves with an abrasive cleanser
or
steel wool. After cleaning, rinse the shelves with
clean water and dry with a clean cloth.
NOTE:
The oven shelves may be cleaned in the
self-cleaning
oven, however, they will darken, lose
their luster and become hard to slide. Wipe the shelf
supports with cooking oil after self-cleaning
to nmke
shelves slide more easily.
Upper Oven Porcelain
Interior
With proper care, the
porcelain
enamel finish
on the inside of the
oven
top, bottom,
sides, back and inside
of the door
will stay
new-looking
for years.
Let range cool before
cleaning.
We recommend
that you weal rubber
gloves when cleaning the range.
Soap and water will normally
do the job. Heavy
spattering or spil!overs
nmy require cleaning with a
mild abrasive cleaner. Soapy, wet metal pads nmy also
be used. Do not allow food spills with a high sugar or
acid content (such as milk, tonmtoes, sauerkraut,
fruit
juices or pie filling) to renmin on the surface. They
nmy cause a dull spot even after cleaning.
Household
ammonia
may make the cleaning job
easier.
Place 1/2 cup in a shallow glass or pottm 7
container
in a cold oven overnight. The anamonia
fumes will help loosen the. burned-on
grease and food.
If necessary,
you may use an oven cleaner.
Follow package
directions.
Cautions
about using
spray-on
oven cleaners:
•Do not spray on the electrical
controls and switches
because it could cause a short circuit and result in
sparking or tire.
• Do not allow a film from the cleaner to build up on
the temperature
sensor
-it could cause the oven to
heat improperly.
(The sensor is located at the top of
the oven.) Carefully wipe the sensor clean after each
oven cleaning, being careflfl not to move the sensor
as a change in its position could affect how the oven
bakes.
•Do not spray any oven cleaner on the oven door.
handles or any exterior surface of the oven. cabinets
or painted surthces. The cleaner can danmge
these surfaces.
To Clean the Removable
Upper
Oven Panels
in the Lower
Self-Cleaning
Oven
•These parts can be cleaned in the self-cleaning
lower oven. Place the shelf from the upper oven
on either shelf of the self-cleaning
oven. (The shelf
nmy have to be shifted slightly so the shelf stops do
not interfere with placement of palms. )
•S1 ide out the oven bottom; lifting the bake element
slightly nmkes this easier to do. Lift the back panel
and remove. Place the bottom and back panels back-
to-back so the soiled sides face outward. Place these
panels over the shelf on the STRAIGHT
shelf', it is
important that the panels lay flat on lhe shelf'.
Lift the side panels up and out of the oven. Place
back-to-back
on the renmining self-cleaning
oven
shelf.
To Replace
the Panels in the Upper Oven
• Replace the panels in any order desired. Be certain
the oven bottom is replaced so the notch is at the
right, and the "feet" on the bake element rest in
depressions
in the panel. Replace the broiler
reflector
so the "open side" is toward the bottom
of the oven.
