CARE AND CLEANING
Remove spills and any heavy soiling as soon as possible.
Regular cleaning will reduce the difficulty of major cleaning
later.
•
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.
