Daily Cleaning

Daily cleaning of the inside of the oven is not necessary. When soil builds up,
use the self-clean function as explain in “Self Cleaning the Oven” on page 42.
See “Oven Cleaning Chart” on page 41 for instructions for specific surfaces and
items.

Cleaning Guidelines

Avoid these cleaners

Do not use caustic cleaners such as Easy Off®. They may etch the surface.

Flammable cleaners such as lighter fluid or WD-40

Igniters / Ceramics

Carefully wipe with a cotton swab
dampened with water, ammonia
or a non-abrasive cleaner such as
Formula 409

®

.

Gently scrape soil off with a tooth-
pick.

Keep the ignitor ports clean for proper
performance. It is necessary to clean
these when there is a boilover or
when the burner does not light even
though the electronic ignitors click.

A damp igniter will prevent burner
from igniting. For proper burner per-
formance, keep ignitors clean and
dry.

Remove any lint that may remain after
cleaning.

Recommendations

Racks

Wash with hot sudsy water. Rinse thoroughly and dry, or gently rub with cleansing powder or
soap filled pads as directed. If racks are cleaned in the oven during the self-clean mode, they
will lose their shiny finish and may not glide smoothly. If this happens, wipe the rack edges with
a small amount of vegetable oil, then wipe off excess.

Door Gasket

DO NOT HAND CLEAN GASKET.

Glass

Wash with soap and water or glass cleaner. Use Fantastik® or Formula 409® to remove grease
spatters and stubborn stains.

Painted Surfaces

Clean with hot sudsy water or apply Fantastik® or Formula 409® to a clean sponge or paper
towel and wipe clean. Avoid using powdered cleansers, steel wool pads and oven cleaners.

Porcelain Surfaces

Immediately wipe up acid spills like fruit juice, milk and tomatoes with a dry towel. Do not use a
moistened sponge/towel on hot porcelain. When cool, clean with hot sudsy water or apply Bon-
Ami® or Soft Scrub® to a damp sponge. Rinse and dry. For stubborn stains, use soap filled
pads. It is normal for porcelain to show fine lines with age due to exposure to heat and food soil.

Stainless Surfaces

Always wipe or rub with grain. Clean with a soapy sponge then rinse and dry, or wipe with Fan-
tastik® or Formula 409® sprayed onto a paper towel. Protect and polish with Stainless Steel
Magic® and a soft cloth. Remove water spots with a cloth dampened with white vinegar. Use
Bar Keeper’s Friend® to remove heat discoloration.

Plastic & Controls

When cool, clean with soapy water, rinse and dry.
