CARE AND CLEANING
Porcelain-enameled broiler pan
and insert
Porcelain door liner
Porcelain body parts
Rinse with clean water and a damp cloth. Scrub gently with a soapy, non-abrasive
scouring pad to remove most spots. Rinse with a 50/50 solution of clean water and
ammonia. If necessary, cover difficult spots with an ammonia-soaked paper towel for
30 to 40 minutes. Rinse and wipe dry with a clean cloth. Remove all cleaners or
future heating could damage the porcelain. Do not allow food spills with a high sugar
or acid content (milk, tomatoes, sauerkraut, fruit juices or pie filling) to remain on
porcelain surfaces. These spills may cause a dull spot even after cleaning.
Self-cleaning oven interior Before setting a self-clean cycle, clean soils from the oven frame, areas outside the
oven door gasket, and the small area at the front center of the oven bottom. See
“Self Clean (models A and C)” on page 26.
Oven door Use mild dish detergent and water or a 50/50 solution of vinegar and water to clean
the top, sides, and front of the oven door. Rinse well. Glass cleaner may be used on
the outside glass of the door. Ceramic smoothtop cleaner or polish may be used on
the interior door glass. Do not immerse the door in water. Do not spray or allow water
or cleaners to enter the door vents. Do not use oven cleaners, cleaning powders, or
any harsh abrasive cleaning materials on the outside of the oven door.
Do not clean the oven door gasket. The oven door gasket is made of a woven
material which is essential for a good seal. Do not rub, damage, or remove this
gasket.
