Care and Cleaning
OVEN EXTERIOR
Do not use oven cleaners, abrasive cleansers, strong
liquid cleansers, steel wool, plastic scouring pads, or
cleaning powders on the interior or exterior of the oven.
Clean with a mild soap and water or vinegar and water
solution. Rinse with clean water and dry with a soft cloth.
When cleaning surfaces, make sure that they are at
room temperature and not in direct sunlight.
If stain on the door vent trim is persistent, use a mild
abrasive cleaner and a sponge-scrubber for best results.
Spillage of marinades, fruit juices, tomato sauces and
basting liquids containing acids may cause discoloration
and should be wiped up immediately. Let hot surfaces
cool, then clean and rinse.
Painted Surfaces
Painted surfaces may include the door and trim around
the control panel. Clean these with soap and water or
a vinegar and water solution. Do not use commercial
oven cleaners, cleaning powders, steel wool or harsh
abrasives on any painted surface.
OVEN INTERIOR
The interior of your new oven can be cleaned manually
or by using Steam Clean mode. Spillage of marinades,
fruit juices, tomato sauces and basting liquids containing
acids may cause discoloration and should be wiped up
immediately. Let hot surfaces cool, then clean and rinse.
Manual Cleaning
Do not use oven cleaners, strong liquid cleansers,
steel wool, or scouring pads on the interior of the oven.
Clean with a mild soap and water, or vinegar and water
solution. Rinse with clean water and dry with a soft cloth.
When cleaning surfaces, make sure that they are at room
temperature.

Stainless Steel
Do not use a steel wool pad; it will scratch the surface.
To clean the stainless steel surface, use warm sudsy
water or a stainless steel cleaner or polish. Always
wipe the surface in the direction of the grain. Follow
the cleaner instructions for cleaning the stainless steel
surface. Cleaners with oxalic acid such as Bar Keepers
Friend Soft Cleanser™ will remove surface rust, tarnish
of grit and rub in the direction of the brush lines with a
damp, soft sponge. To inquire about purchasing cleaning
products including stainless steel appliance cleaner or
polish, see the Consumer Support section for further
information.
Steam Clean Mode
Steam clean is intended to clean small spills using water
and a lower cleaning temperature than Self-Clean.
To use the Steam Clean feature:
1. Start with the oven at room temperature.
2. Wipe excess grease and soils from the oven.
3. Pour one cup of water onto the bottom of the oven.
4. Close the door.
Do not open the door during the 30 minute Steam Clean
cycle. At the end of the Steam Clean cycle, soak up the
remaining water, and wipe the moisture-softened soil
from the oven walls and door.
