The interior of your new oven can be cleaned manually or by using the Steam Clean or the Self Clean mode.
Spillage of marinades, fruit juices, tomato sauces and basting liquids containing acids may cause discoloration and
should be wiped up immediately. Let hot surfaces cool, then clean and rinse.
Manual Cleaning
Do not use oven cleaners, strong liquid cleansers, steel
wool, or scouring pads on the interior of the oven. For
soils on the oven bottom and other enameled surfaces,
use a gentle abrasive containing oxalic acid, such as
Bar Keepers Friend
®
, with a non-scratch sponge. Take
care not to apply any abrasive cleaners or sponges to
the door glass, as it will scratch the reflective coating.
The oven interior and door glass may be cleaned using
a soft cloth with a mild soap and water, or vinegar and
water solution. After cleaning, rinse with clean water and
dry with a soft cloth.

Range – Interior
Steam Clean Mode (on some models)
The Steam Clean feature is for cleaning light soil from
your oven at a lower temperature than Self Clean.
To use the Steam Clean feature:
1. Start with the oven at room temperature.
2. Wipe excess grease and soils from the oven.
3. Pour one cup of water onto the bottom of the oven.
4. Close the door.
5. Press the
Clean
pad, select
Steam Clean
and
then press
Start/Enter
. 30 minutes will show and
count down inthe display in the
Steam Clean
mode.
If your range has the self clean mode below, slide
the door latch handle to the left as far as it will go. Do
not open the door during the 30 minute Steam Clean
cycle. At the end of the Steam Clean cycle, soak up
the remaining water, and wipe the moisture-softened
soil from the oven walls and door.
Self Clean Mode (on some models)
Read Self-Cleaning Oven Safety Instructions at the
beginning of this manual before using the Self Clean
Mode. Self Clean uses very high temperatures to clean
the oven interior. Only self-clean (black) racks and grates
may remain in the oven during the self-clean cycle. All
other items, including nickel plated (silver) racks, should
be removed. If nickel plated (silver) racks are left in the
oven during a self-clean cycle, the racks will tarnish. If
either type of rack is left in the oven during a self-clean
cycle, the rack may become difficult to slide. See the
Oven Racks section for instructions on how to improve.
IMPORTANT:
The health of some birds is extremely
sensitive to the fumes given off during the self-cleaning
cycle of any range. Move birds to another well-
ventilated room.
To use the Self Clean feature:
1. Start with the oven at room temperature.
2. Wipe excess grease and soils from the oven and
interior door.
3. Remove all items. See Cleaning the Cooktop to
determine if your grates may be self-cleaned and
for important details regarding grate placement.
4. Close the door. Slide the door latch handle to the
left as far as it will go.
5. Press the
Clean
pad, select
Self Clean
and then
press
Start/Enter
. 4 hours will show and count
down in the display in the
Self Clean
mode.
You cannot open the door during the self-clean cycle.
The door will remain locked after the self-clean cycle
until the oven cools below the unlocking temperature.
At the end of the self-clean cycle, allow the oven to cool
and wipe any ash out of the oven.
Racks
All racks can be washed with warm, soapy water.
Enameled (not shiny) racks can be left in the cavity
during self clean.
Racks may be more difficult to slide, especially after
a self-clean. Put some vegetable oil on a soft cloth or
paper towel and rub onto the left and right edges.
