Cleaning Various Parts of Your Oven

Before cleaning any part of the oven, be sure all controls are turned off and the oven is cool. Remove spills and any 
heavy soiling as soon as possible. Regular cleaning will reduce the number of major cleaning later.

Surface Type

Recommendation

Aluminum and Vinyl trim

 

Painted body parts

 

Painted decorative trims

 

Plastic

Use hot, soapy water and dry with a clean cloth. Use a soft cloth and clean with mild 
dish detergent and water or a 50/50 solution of vinegar and water. Follow by rinsing 
the area with clean water; dry and polish with a soft cloth. Glass cleaners may be used 
if sprayed on a soft cloth first. Do not spray liquids directly on the oven control and 
display area. 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 paper towels. They will damage the finish.

Control Pad

 

Control key membrane

 

Decorative trim (some models)

Use a soft cloth and clean with mild dish detergent and water or a 50/50 solution of 
vinegar and water. Follow by rinsing the area with clean water; dry and polish with a 
soft cloth. Glass cleaners may be used if sprayed on a soft cloth first. Do not spray 
liquids directly on the oven control and display area. 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 paper 
towels. They will damage the finish.

Stainless steel (some models)

Only use cleaners and polishes specifically manufactured for cleaning stainless steel. 
Always rub in the direction of the metal grain to avoid damaging. Do not use cleaners 
with high concentrations of chlorides or chlorine. Do not use harsh scrubbing cleaners. 
Polish with a lint-free cloth. Be sure to wipe excess cleaner/polish from the metal 
surface as bluish stains may occur during future oven heating that cannot be removed. 
Clean heavier soils with hot, soapy water and a cloth or sponge. Use clean water to 
rinse; use a cloth to dry

Smudge-Proof™ Stainless Steel 
(some models)

Clean the stainless with warm soapy water using a clean sponge or cloth. Rinse with 
clean water and dry with a soft clean cloth. Do not use store bought cleaners like 
stainless steel cleaners or any other types of cleaners containing any abrasive, chlo-
rides, chlorine, or ammonia. Use mild dish soap and water or a 50/50 solution of water 
and vinegar.

Porcelain enamel broiler pan and 
insert (available by mail order)

Door liner and body parts

Gentle scouring with a soapy scouring pad will remove most spots. Rinse with a 1:1 
solution of clear water and 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, and then scrub with a soap-filled scouring pad. Rinse and wipe dry with a clean 
cloth. Remove all cleaners or the porcelain may become damaged during future 
heating.

Oven racks

Oven racks must be removed from oven cavity. Clean by using a mild, abrasive 
cleaner following manufacturer’s instructions. Rinse with clean water and dry.

Oven door

Use soap and water to thoroughly clean the top, sides, and front of the oven door. 
Rinse well. You may use a glass cleaner on the outside glass of the 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. 
On self clean models, the oven door gasket is made of a woven material which is 
essential for a good seal. Care should be taken not to rub, damage, or remove this 
gasket.
