General Cleaning
Cleaning Various Parts of Your Appliance
Before cleaning any part of the drawer, be sure control is turned OFF and the drawer
is COOL. REMOVE SPILLOVERS AND HEAVY SOILING AS SOON AS POSSIBLE.
REGULAR CLEANINGS WILL REDUCE THE NUMBER OF MAJOR CLEANINGS LATER.
How to Clean
Use hot, soapy water and a cloth. Dry with a clean cloth.
To remove control knob, turn to the OFF position; grasp firmly and pull straight off the shaft.
Clean with a cloth soaked in soapy water.
Rinse with a clean water and a dishcloth. Be sure
to squeeze excess water from the cloth before wiping the panel; especially when wiping
around the controls. Excess water in or around the controls may cause damage to the
appliance. To replace knob after cleaning, line up the flat sides of both the knob and the
shaft; then push the knob into place.
Cleaners made especially for stainless steel are recommended. Always follow the
manufacturer's instructions. Be sure to rinse the cleaners.
DO NOT
clean the door gasket.
The door gasket is essential for a good seal. Care should be taken not to rub, damage or
remove the gasket.
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.
DO NOT
use spray oven
cleaners.
The rack may be removed for cleaning. If removed, clean by using a mild, abrasive cleaner
following manufacturer's instructions. Rinse with clean water and dry.
