Maintenance
Replacing an Oven Light
Use only 10 Watt, 12 Volt bi-pin halogen light bulbs. These
bulbs can be purchased through retail stores.
Use a clean, dry cloth to handle halogen light bulbs. This
will increase the life of the bulb.
Flat Rack Wash with hot soapy water. Rinse
thoroughly and dry, or gently rub
with cleansing powder or soap-filled
pads as directed. DO NOT clean the
rack in the self-cleaning oven.
If the flat racks are cleaned in the
oven during the self clean mode,
they will loose their shiny finish and
may not glide smoothly. If this
happens, wipe the rack edges with a
small amount of vegetable oil. Then
wipe off excess.
Telescopic Rack Wash with hot soapy water. Rinse
thoroughly and dry, or gently rub
with cleansing powder or soap-filled
pads as directed. Avoid getting
cleansing powder in the telescopic
slides. Re-lubrication may become
necessary. Use only high-
temperature food-grade lubricants to
re-lubricate slides.
DO NOT clean the rack in the self-
cleaning oven.
Fiberglass
Gasket DO NOT CLEAN GASKET.
Glass Wash with soap and water or glass
cleaner. Use Fantastik® or Formula
409® to remove grease spatters and
stubborn stains.
Painted
Surfaces Clean with hot soapy water or apply
Fantastik® or Formula 409® to a
clean sponge or paper towel and
wipe clean. Avoid using powder
cleaning agents, steel wool pads
and oven cleaners.
Porcelain
Surfaces Immediately wipe up acid spills like
fruit juice, milk and tomatoes with a
dry cloth. Do not use a moistened
sponge/cloth on hot porcelain. When
cool, clean with hot soapy water or
apply Bon-Ami® or Soft Scrub® to a
damp sponge. Rinse and dry. For
stubborn stains, use soap-filled
pads. It is normal for porcelain to
show fine lines with age due to
exposure to heat and food soil.
Part Recommendations
Stainless Steel
Surfaces Always wipe or rub in the direction of
the grain. Clean with a soapy
sponge, then rinse and dry, or wipe
with Fantastik® or Formula 409®
sprayed on a paper towel. Protect
and polish with Stainless Steel
Magic® and a soft cloth. Remove
water spots with a cloth dampened
with white vinegar. Use Bar Keeper's
Friend® to remove heat
discoloration.
Plastic &
Controls When cool, clean with soapy water,
rinse and dry.
