Exterior
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.
Place a small amount of stainless steel appliance cleaner or polish on a damp cloth or paper towel.
Clean a small area, rubbing with the grain of the stainless steel if applicable.
Dry and buff with a clean, dry paper towel or soft cloth.
Repeat as necessary.
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
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.
Do not use oven cleaners, cleaning powders, or 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 that is essential for a good seal. Care should be taken not to rub, damage, or remove this gasket.
Don’t hand clean oven door gasket
Do hand clean door
Broiler Pan and Grid
Do not store a soiled broiler pan or grid anywhere in the range.
Do not clean the broiler pan or grid in a self cleaning mode. (Available on some models)
Remove the grid from the pan. Carefully pour out the grease from the pan into a proper container.
Wash and rinse the broiler pan and grid in hot water with a soap-filled or plastic scouring pad.
If food has burned on, sprinkle the grid with cleaner while hot and cover with wet paper towels or a dishcloth. Soaking the pan will remove burned-on foods.
Both the broiler pan and grid may be cleaned with a commercial oven cleaner or in the dishwasher.
Oven Racks
Remove the oven racks before operating the Self Clean cycle (on some models) and EasyClean.
Clean with a mild, abrasive cleaner.
Food spilled into the tracks could cause the racks to become stuck.
Rinse with clean water and dry.
For models with Self Clean function:
If the racks are cleaned using the Self Clean cycle (not recommended), the color will turn slightly blue and the finish will become 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 more easily into the rack tracks.
