General Cleaning Tips

• A plastic spatula can be used as a scraper to
scrape off any chunks or debris before and
during oven cleaning.
• Using the rough side of a non-scratch scouring
pad may help to take off burnt-on stains better
than a soft sponge or towel.
• Certain non-scratch scrubbing sponges, such as
those made of melamine foam, available at your
local stores, can also help improve cleaning.
Cleaning the Interior of the Upper
Oven
Wash often with warm, sudsy water and a sponge
or soft cloth. Use only mild, nonabrasive soaps or a
mild detergent. Keep the areas clean where the
door and oven frame touch when closed.
Wipe well with a clean cloth. Over time, stains can
occur on the surfaces as the result of food particles
spattering during cooking. This is normal.
For stubborn soil, boil a cup of water in the oven
for 2 to 3 minutes. Steam will soften the soil. To get
rid of odors inside the oven, boil a cup of water
with some lemon juice or vinegar in it.

Exterior

Control Panel
To prevent activating the control panel during
cleaning, disconnect power to the appliance. Clean
up splatters with a damp cloth using a glass
cleaner. Remove heavier soil with warm, soapy
water. Do not use abrasives of any kind.
Painted and Decorative Trim
For general cleaning, use a cloth with hot soapy
water. For more difficult soils and built-up grease,
apply a liquid detergent directly onto the soil.
Leave it on for 30 to 60 minutes. Rinse with a damp
cloth and dry. Do not use abrasive cleaners.
Stainless Steel Surfaces
To avoid scratches, do not use steel wool pads.
1
Place a small amount of stainless steel
appliance cleaner or polish on a damp cloth or
paper towel.
2
Clean a small area, rubbing with the grain of
the stainless steel if applicable.
3
Dry and buff with a clean, dry paper towel or
soft cloth.
4
Repeat as necessary.
NOTE
• To clean the stainless steel surface, use warm
sudsy water or a stainless steel cleaner or polish.
• Always wipe in the direction of the metal surface
finish.
• Stainless steel appliance cleaner or polish can be
purchased online or from most retailers of
appliances or home goods.
Oven Door
CAUTION
• Do not use harsh cleaners or harsh abrasive
cleaning materials on the outside of the oven
door. Doing so can cause damage.
• Use soapy water to thoroughly clean the oven
door. Rinse well. Do not immerse the door in
water.
• You may use a glass cleaner on the outside glass
of the oven door. Do not spray water or glass
cleaner on the door vents.
