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)”

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.

Gas cooktop surface burners

See

“Cleaning the sealed burners”

on

.

Gas cooktop surface grates

Gas cooktop burner caps

Use a non-abrasive plastic scrubbing pad and mild abrasive cleanser. Do not allow
food spills with a high sugar or acid content (milk, tomatoes, sauerkraut, fruit juices or
pie filling) to remain on the burner grates or burner caps. These spills may cause a
dull spot even after cleaning. Clean these spills as soon as surfaces are cool. Thor-
oughly dry immediately following cleaning.
