Cleaning and care of the oven
53
Danger of injury caused by hot
surfaces.
At the end of the Self Clean program,
the oven will still be very hot. You
could burn yourself on the heater
elements and the oven
compartment.
Allow the heating elements and the
oven compartment temperature to
drop to a safe level before removing
any residues.
Clean the oven compartment to
remove any Self Clean residues (e.g.,
ash) that can build up depending on
the degree of soiling in the oven
compartment.
Most residues can be removed with
warm water, liquid dish soap, and a
clean sponge or a clean, damp
microfiber cloth.
Depending on how dirty the oven was
prior to cleaning, there may be a
visible layer of soiling across the inner
glass pane on the door. You can
remove this using the scouring side of
a dish sponge, a glass scraper, or with
a stainless steel spiral pad and liquid
dish soap.
Please note:
- There is a fiberglass seal around the
oven compartment which seals the
inside of the glass oven door and can
be damaged by rubbing and
scouring. Do not clean the door seal
– it is essential for sealing the door
properly.
- Spilled fruit juices may cause lasting
discoloration of enameled surfaces.
This discoloration is permanent but
will not affect the properties of the
enamel. Do not attempt to remove
these stains.
