rections for mixing. Spray on soils, allow to
work for 15 – 30 minutes, then wipe the en-
tire oven cavity with paper towels or a cloth.
Run the steam clean cycle so the cavity is
rinsed thoroughly.
¡

low the oven light, bulb or door gaskets to
come in contact with the cleaner.

the glass in the oven door. They can also
adversely affect the flavor of foods cooked in
the steam oven.
