Oven Bottom
The oven bottom has a porcelain enamel finish. To
make cleaning easier, protect the oven bottom from
excessive spillovers. This is particularty important
when baking a fruit pie or other foods with a high acid
content Hot fruit fillings or other foods that are highly
acidic (such as milk, tomatoes or sauerkraut, and
sauces with vinegar or lemon juice) may cause pitting
and damage to the porcelain enamel finish.
To protect the oven bottom finish, place a piece of alu
minum foil slightly larger than the baking dish or a
small cookie sheet on a lower shelf or under the bak
ing dish to catch any boilovers. It should not complete
ly cover the shelf 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 dean the oven bottom with
soap and water, a mild abrasive cleanser or soap-
filled abrasive pads. Rinse well to remove any soap
before self-cleaning.
