Do not line the oven walls, oven racks, oven bottom or any other
part of the range with aluminum foil. Doing so will stop heat dis-
tribution, produce poor baking results and may cause permanent
damage to the oven interior. Aluminum foil will melt to a hot oven
surface during clean.

Clean any soil from the outer frame, the inside and outside of the
door, the small area at the front and center of the oven bottom,
and any areas outside the oven gasket. These areas heat suffi-
ciently to burn on soils. clean using soap and water before

Remove any excessive build up caused by spills. Any spill on
the oven bottom should be wiped up and removed before
starting a clean cycle. To clean, use hot, soapy water and a
cloth. Large spill residue can cause heavy smoke or fire when
subjected to high temperatures. Do not allow food spills with a
high sugar or acid content (such as milk, tomatoes, sauerkraut,
fruit juices, or pie filling) to remain on the surface as they may
leave a dull spot even after cleaning.

This oven comes with lubricated porcelain oven racks,
which can remain in the oven during the clean cycle. Do not
clean this vegetable oil lubrication off the racks. It is
important that the sides of the oven racks always have a
light coating of vegetable oil. To maintain optimal rack
performance, re-apply a thin layer of vegetable oil to the
sides of the rack after every clean cycle or when the rack
becomes difficult to slide. Refer to
