Interior Cleaning of Standard Aluminized
Steel Interior Surfaces
The oven sides and top linings are formed of heavy gauge
steel with an aluminum fused into its surface to provide
for the reflectance of heat back to the food being prepared
and to virtually eliminate the possibility of rust formation .
Establish a regular cleaning schedule or wipe off on the same
day when spillovers occur .
1 . Cool down oven .
2 . Remove oven racks .
3 . Lift rack guides on either side of oven off of holders, pull
the top away from the cavity wall, when it’s cleared the
clips push down and remove . Racks and guides may
be run through dishwasher while oven cavity is being
cleaned .
4 . Use a concentrated detergent on a plastic pad to remove
burned on soil . Do Not Use Steel Wool, Oven Cleaner Or
Abrasive Powders . These will remove the aluminum . Rinse
with warm water on a soft cloth . Be sure to remove all
traces of detergent . Any discoloration, which may remain
after the soil build-up has been removed, will not affect
the performance of the oven .
5 . To reinstall reverse procedure . Place the bottom of the
rack guide against the cavity wall . Keeping the top pulled
away from the wall lift up . Push the top of the rack guide
against the wall and push down locking it into place .
Open Top Burners
Cleaning of the range top burner is a simple procedure, and,
if done at regular intervals will prolong the life of the range
and ensure good flame characteristics .
1 . The most common problem with open burner ranges is
spillage . Once the burner ports are partially plugged with
food, the air-to-gas mixture is disturbed and results in an
inefficient burner .
2 . Wipe any spills as they occur .
3 . Grids and trays should be removed daily, washed, rinsed
and dried thoroughly .
4 . Use a wire brush to clean the ports of the burners . Ignite
and check for clogged holes .
5 . If any clogged holes are apparent, the burner should be
lifted out and brushed inside and out with a small Venturi
brush . Each port on the burner itself should be cleaned
with a properly sized wire or thumb drill . Wash with soap
and hot water if grease is observed on the burners . Dry
thoroughly .
6 . When reinstalling the open top burner head be sure the
burner ports are lined up correctly to the pilot . On the
cast burner head there is an extended finger with port
openings, when this is in line with the pilot, the burner is
installed correctly .
EXTENDED FINGER PILOT
7 If a yellow flame appears around the edges instead of
being uniformly blue, it is usually a sign of grease dirt
in the throat of the burner . Remove the burner venturi
(main body that the burner heads sit on) to access the
air shutter opening . Remove grease and dirt from the
air shutter area carefully . Do not adjusting the shutter
setting . The air shutter allows the proper amount of air
to mix with the flow of gas coming in from your valve/
thermostat orifice and should not be adjusted unless by a
license gas fitter technician .
Cast Iron Top & Grates
Cast iron top and grate(s) can be cleaned with mild soap
and warm water . For baked on material, a wire brush can be
used . Dry thoroughly . Lightly coat with vegetable oil to help
prevent rust from forming .
