Porcelain Oven Interior
(for standard clean models only)
With proper care, the porcelain enamel
finish on the inside of the oven—top,
bottom, sides, back and inside of the door—
will stay new-looking for years.
Let the range cool before cleaning. We
recommend that you wear rubber gloves
when cleaning the range.
Soap and water will normally do the job.
Heavy spattering or spillovers may require
cleaning with a mild abrasive cleaner.
Soapy, wet metal pads may also be used.
Do not allow food spills with a high sugar or acid
content (such as milk, tomatoes, sauerkraut, fruit
juices or pie filling) to remain on the surface. They
may cause a dull spot even after cleaning.
Household ammonia may make the
cleaning job easier. Place
1/2 cup in a shallow glass or pottery
container in a cold oven overnight. The
ammonia fumes will help loosen the
burned-on grease and food.
If necessary, you may use an oven cleaner.
Follow the package directions.
Do not spray oven cleaner on the electrical
controls and switches because it could
cause a short circuit and result in sparking
or fire.
Do not allow a film from the cleaner to
build up on the temperature sensor—it
could cause the oven to heat improperly.
(The sensor is located at the top of the
oven.) Carefully wipe the sensor clean
after each oven cleaning, being careful not
to move the sensor as a change in its
position could affect how the oven bakes.
Do not spray any oven cleaner on the oven
door, handles or any exterior surface of the
oven, cabinets or painted surfaces. The
cleaner can damage these surfaces.
Porcelain Enamel Cooktop
The porcelain enamel finish is sturdy but
breakable if misused. This finish is acid-
resistant. However, any acidic foods spilled
(such as fruit juices, tomato or vinegar)
should not be permitted to remain on
the finish.
If acids spill on the cooktop while it is hot,
use a dry paper towel or cloth to wipe it up
right away. When the surface has cooled,
wash with soap and water. Rinse well.
For other spills such as fat spatterings, wash
with soap and water or cleansing powders
after the surface has cooled. Rinse well.
Polish with a dry cloth.
Oven Shelves
Clean the shelves with an abrasive cleanser
or steel wool.
