Care and Cleaning
•
Before cleaning any part of the appliance, be sure all
controls are turned off and the appliance is cool.
•
If ammonia or appliance cleaners are used, they must be
removed and the appliance must be thoroughly rinsed
before operating. Follow manufacturer's instructions and
provide adequate ventilation.
Remove spills and any heavy soiling as soon as possible.
Regular cleaning will reduce the difficulty of major cleaning
later.

Surface or Area
Cleaning Recommendation
Aluminum and vinyl
Using a soft cloth, clean with mild dish detergent and water. Rinse with clean water, dry
and polish with a soft, clean cloth.
Painted and plastic control knobs
Painted body parts
Painted decorative trims
Using a soft cloth, clean with mild dish detergent and water or a 50/50 solution of vinegar
and water. Rinse with clean water, dry and polish with a soft, clean cloth. Glass cleaners
may be used, but do not apply directly to surface; spray onto cloth and wipe.
Control panel
Using a soft cloth, clean with mild dish detergent and water or a 50/50 solution of vinegar
and water. Do not spray liquids directly on the oven control and display area. Do not use
large amounts of water on the control panel - excess water on the control area may cause
damage to the appliance. Do not use other liquid cleaners, abrasive cleaners, scouring
pads, or paper towels - they will damage the finish.
Stainless Steel
Using a soft cloth, clean with mild dish detergent and water or a 50/50 solution of vinegar
and water. Rinse with clean water, dry with a soft clean cloth. Do not use cleaners
containing abrasives, chlorides, chlorine, or ammonia.
Black Stainless Steel
Using a soft cloth, clean with mild dish detergent and water or a 50/50 solution of vinegar
and water. Rinse with clean water, dry with a soft clean cloth. Do not use appliance
cleaner, stainless steel cleaner, or cleaner containing abrasives, chlorides, chlorine, or
ammonia. These cleaners may damage the finish.
Porcelain-enameled broiler pan and
insert
Porcelain door liner
Porcelain body parts
Rinse with clean water and a damp cloth. Scrub gently with a soapy, non-abrasive
scouring pad to remove most spots. Rinse with a 50/50 solution of clean water and
ammonia. If necessary, cover difficult spots with an ammonia-soaked paper towel for 30
to 40 minutes. Rinse and wipe dry with a clean cloth. Remove all cleaners or future heating
could damage the porcelain. Do not allow food spills with a high sugar or acid content
(milk, tomatoes, sauerkraut, fruit juices or pie filling) to remain on porcelain surfaces. These
spills may cause a dull spot even after cleaning.
Manual clean oven interior
The oven interior is porcelain coated and safe to clean using oven cleaners. Always follow
manufacturer's instructions for cleaners. After cleaning, remove any oven cleaner or the
porcelain may become damaged during future heating. Do not spray oven cleaner on any
electrical controls or switches. Do not spray or allow oven cleaner to build up on the oven
temperature sensing probe. Do not spray cleaner on oven door trim, door gasket, plastic
drawer glides, handles or any exterior surfaces of the appliance.
