CLEANING
WARNING: DISCONNECT THE ELECTRICAL POWER SUPPLY AND PLACE A TAG AT THE
DISCONNECT SWITCH INDICATING THAT YOU ARE WORKING ON THE OVEN BEFORE
CLEANING.
Allow the oven to cool before cleaning.
Snorkel Tube
The Snorkel tube opening should never be blocked. If usage of aluminum foil is a common practice
during the operation of this oven, be sure to periodically check the Snorkel tube for foil particles. The
Snorkel tube should be kept clean at all times for proper operation of the oven. Clean this tube with
standard oven cleaner at least once a week. Be sure to thoroughly clean all cleansing solution off the
tube before using the oven again. It is also recommended that the oven be run at 400°F
(204°C) for 20
minutes before using to burn off any cleaning solution that was not thoroughly rinsed from the tube.
Daily
Exterior stainless steel oven panels should be cleaned with a damp cloth. Stubborn soil may be
removed with detergent. (DO NOT USE "DAWN".) Rinse thoroughly and wipe dry with a soft clean
cloth. Clean porcelain oven interior daily with soap or detergent and water. Rinse thoroughly and wipe
dry with a soft clean cloth. Nickel plated racks and rack supports may be removed for cleaning.
For burned-on foods and grease which resist simple soap and water cleaning, an abrasive cleanser
(scouring powder) mixed into a paste may be used. Apply with stainless steel wool or sponge, always
rubbing with the "grain." This treatment is equally effective for "heat tint" (slightly darkened areas
caused by oxidation). Again, remember to rub in the direction of the polish lines. Rinse with clear water
and dry with a soft cloth.
Do not use scouring powder on the glass window; it will scratch and fog the glass.
After processing some foods at low temperatures, odors may linger in the oven. These odors may be
cleared by setting the thermostat at 500°F
(260°C) and the power level control at 10 and allowing the
oven to run unloaded for 30 to 45 minutes.
