CARE & CLEANING
(cont')
M A I N T E N A N C E
Oven Racks
Remove the oven
racks before
operating the
selfclean cycle.
Leaving the racks in
place could cause discoloration, and, if food is spilled
into the tracks, could causes the racks to become
stuck. If left, clean by using a mild, abrasive cleaner.
Rinse with clean water and dry.
If the racks are cleaned in the self clean cycle, their
color will turn slightly blue and the finish will be dull.
After the self clean cycle is complete, and the oven
has cooled, rub the sides of the racks with wax paper
or a cloth containing a small amount of oil. This will
make the racks glide easier into the rack tracks.
Oven door
Use soap and water to thoroughly clean the top,
sides, and front of the oven door. Rinse well. You may
use a glass cleaner on the outside glass of the oven
door. DO NOT immerse the door in water. DO NOT
spray or allow water or the glass cleaner to enter the
door vents. DO NOT use oven cleaners, cleaning
powders, or any harsh abrasive cleaning materials on
the outside of the oven door.
DO NOT clean the oven door gasket. The oven door
gasket is made of a woven material which is essential
for a good seal. Care should be taken not to rub,
damage, or remove this gasket.
CAUTION
• DO NOT use harsh abrasive cleaners or sharp
metal scrapers to clean the oven door glass
since they can scratch the surface.
- It may result in shattering of the glass.
CLEANING THE GLASS/CERAMIC COOKTOP
Normal Daily Use Cleaning
Use Ceramic Cooktop Cleaner on the glass cooktop.
Other creams my not be as effective or may scratch,
damage or stain the cooktop surface.
To maintain and protect the surface of your glass
cooktop, follow these steps:
1. Before using the cooktop for the first time, clean
with a ceramic cooktop cleaner. This helps protect
the top and makes cleanup easier.
2. Daily use of ceramic cooktop cleaner will help keep
the cooktop looking new.
3. Shake the cleaning cream well. Apply a few drops
of cleaner directly to the cooktop.
4. Use a paper towel to clean the entire cooktop
surface.
5. Rinse with clear water and use a dry cloth or paper
towel to remove all cleaning residue.
NOTE:
DO NOT heat the cooktop until it has been cleaned
thoroughly.
CAUTION
• DO NOT use scrub pads or abrasive cleaning
pads.
- They may damage your glass cooktop surface.
• For your safety please wear an oven mitt/pot
holder while cleaning the hot cooking surface.
