 To avoid possible burns use care when opening

the oven door after the Self-Cleaning cycle. Stand to the side
of the oven when opening the door to allow hot air or steam to
escape.

 DO NOT force the oven door open. This can

damage the automatic door locking system. Use caution &
avoid possible burns when opening the door after the Self-
Cleaning cycle has completed. The oven may still be VERY
HOT.

Stopping or Interrupting a Self-Cleaning Cycle

If it becomes necessary to stop or interrupt a Self-Cleaning
cycle:

1.

Press 

.

2.

Once the oven has cooled down for about 1 HOUR and
the "LOCK" light has gone out, the oven door can be
opened.

3.

Restart the Self-Clean cycle once all conditions have
been corrected.

General Care & Cleaning

(Cleaning Table)

Self-Cleaning (cont’d)

For general cleaning, use a soft cloth, clean with mild dish detergent & water or a 50/50 solution
of vinegar & water. Follow by rinsing the area with clean water; dry & polish with a soft cloth.
Glass cleaners may be used if sprayed on a soft cloth 1st. DO NOT spray liquids directly on the
control pad and display areas. DO NOT use large amounts of water on the control panel - excess
water on the control area may cause damage to the appliance. DO NOT use other liquid
cleaners, abrasive cleaners, scouring pads, or some paper towels - they will damage the finish.

Before cleaning the control panel, turn all controls to OFF & remove the control knobs. To
remove, pull each knob straight off the shaft. Use the 

general cleaning instructions provided in the

paragraph above.

Clean burner grates, broiler pan & insert in the dishwasher and dry upon removal. If soils are not
removed, follow the cooktop cleaning instructions below.

Gentle scouring with a soapy scouring pad will remove most spots. Rinse with a 1:1 solution of
clean water & ammonia. 

If necessary, cover difficult spots with an ammonia-soaked paper towel

for 30 to 40 minutes. Rinse with clean water and a damp cloth, then scrub with a soap-filled
scouring pad. Rinse & wipe dry with a clean cloth. Remove all cleaners or the porcelain may
become damaged during future heating. DO NOT use spray oven cleaners on the range top.

How to Clean

Surfaces

Oven Racks

Oven Door

Remove racks. See "Removing & Replacing Oven Racks" under Before Setting Oven Controls.
Use a mild, abrasive cleaner, following the cleaner’s recommendations. Rinse with clean water &
let dry. After cleaning the racks, rub the sides of the racks with wax paper or a cloth containing a
small amount of baby oil or salad oil (this will make the racks glide easier into the oven rack
positions).

Use soap & water to thoroughly clean the top, sides & front of the oven door. Rinse well. You
may use a glass cleaner on the outside glass of the oven door. DO NOT immerse the door in
water.  DO NOT spray or allow water or the glass cleaner 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, on Self-Cleaning models, which is essential for a good seal. Care should be taken not
to rub, damage or remove this gasket.

Clean stainless steel with hot soapy water & a dishcloth. Rinse with clean water and a cloth.
DO NOT use cleaners with high conecentrations of chlorides or chlorines. DO NOT use harsh
scrubbing cleaners. Only use kitchen cleaners that are especially made for cleaning stainless
steel. Always be sure to rinse the cleaners form the surface as bluish stains may occur during
heating that cannot be removed.
