Porcelain Oven Interior
With proper care, the porcelain enamel
interior will retain its attractive finish for many
years.
Soap and water will normally do the job.
Heavy spattering or spillovers may require
cleaning with a mild abrasive cleanser.
Soap-filled scouring pads may also be used.
Do not allow food spills with a high sugar or
acid content (such as tomatoes, sauerkraut,
fruit juices or pie filling) to remain on the
surface. They may cause dull spots even
after cleaning.
Household ammonia may make the
cleaning job easier. Place 1/2 cup ammonia
in a shallow glass pan and leave in a cold
oven overnight. The ammonia fumes will
help loosen the burned-on grease and food.
When necessary, you may use a commercial
oven cleaner. Follow the package directions.
Cautions about using spray-on oven
cleaners:
■
Be careful where the oven cleaner is
sprayed.
■
Do not spray oven cleaner on the electrical
controls and switches (on some models)
because it could cause a short circuit and
result in sparking or fire.
■
Do not allow a film from the cleaner to
remain on the temperature sensing bulb—
it could cause the oven to heat improperly.
(The bulb is located at the rear of the oven.)
Carefully wipe the bulb clean after each
oven cleaning, being careful not to move
the bulb as a change in its position could
affect how the oven bakes.
■
Do not spray any oven cleaner on the
outside oven door, handles or any exterior
surface of the oven, cabinet or painted
surfaces. The cleaner can damage these
surfaces.
Care and cleaning of the range.
