the shelves slide more easily.
Broiler Pan and Grid
After broiling, remove
the broiler pan and grid
from the oven. Remove
the grid from the pan.
Carefully pour out grease from the pan into a proper
container. Wash
rinse the broiler pan and grid in
hot water with a soap-filled or plastic scouring pad.
The enamel grid and broiler pan may be cleaned in
the self-clean oven. However, to prevent heavy smoke
caused by self-cleaning the greasy soil in the pan, you
must first clean off the excess grease.
If food has burned on, sprinkle the grid with
detergent while hot and cover with wet paper towels
or a dishcloth. Soaking the pan will remove
burned-on foods.
The broiler pan may be cleaned with a commercial
oven cleaner. If the grid is grey enamel, it can also be
cleaned with an oven cleaner. If the grid is chrome, do
not use an oven cleaner to clean it.
Do not store a soiled pan and grid anywhere in
the range.
Both the broiler pan and grid can also be cleaned in
the dishwasher.
