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 (unless certified for self-cleaning
oven), 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 and small blemishes. Use
only a liquid cleanser free 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 Accessories and
Consumer Support sections at the end of this manual.
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.
