Care and cleaning of the range.
Stainless Steel Surfaces
(on some models)
Do not use a steel-wool pad; it will
scratch the surface.
To clean the stainless steel surface,
use warm sudsy water, a stainless steel
cleaner such as CERAMA BRYTE
®
Stainless Steel Appliance Cleaner, or
an all-purpose liquid or spray cleaner.
Always scrub in the direction of the
grain. Rinse thoroughly with a sponge
or cloth and clean water. Dry with
a soft, clean cloth.
After cleaning, use a stainless steel
polish, such as CERAMA BRYTE
®
Stainless Steel Brightener, Stainless
Steel Magic
® , Revere Copper and
Stainless Steel Cleaner ® or Wenol All
Purpose Metal Polish ® . Follow the
product instructions for cleaning the
stainless steel surfaces.
Painted Surfaces
Painted surfaces include the sides of
the range and the door, top of control
panel and the drawer front. Clean these
with soap and water or a vinegar and
water solution. Do not use commercial oven cleaners,
cleaning powders, steel wool or harsh
abrasives on any painted surface.
Oven Shelves and Convection Roasting Rack
The convection roasting rack should be
removed from the oven before beginning
the self-clean cycle. Clean with an abrasive
cleanser or steel wool. After cleaning,
rinse the rack with clean water and dry
with a clean cloth.
If your oven is equipped with nickel oven
shelves, they should be removed from the
oven before beginning the self-clean
cycle. Clean with an abrasive cleanser or
steel wool. After cleaning, rinse the
shelves with clean water and dry with
a clean cloth.
If your oven is equipped with gray
porcelain-coated oven shelves, they may
be cleaned in the oven during the self-
clean cycle.
NOTE: The nickel oven shelves (on some
models) and the convection roasting rack may
be cleaned in the self-cleaning oven. However,
the shelves will darken in color, lose their
luster and become hard to slide if cleaned
during the self-cleaning cycle.
To make the shelves slide more easily,
apply a small amount of vegetable oil
to a paper towel and wipe the edges
of the oven shelves with the paper towel.
Do not spray with Pam
® or other
lubricant sprays.
