Owner's Manual for
DUKE RCO Speed Oven
WARNING To avoid electrical shock, which can cause severe personal injury or death, unplug the power
cord or open the circuit breaker to oven before cleaning.
NOTICE: When cleaning the Duke Speed Oven interior, use only the recommended Oven Cleaner and Oven
Shield. These cleaning agents are specially formulated for this application. Any other cleaning products
can damage critical parts, resulting in a non-warranty service call. DO NOT use sodium-based cleaners.
DO NOT use scrubbing pads with metallic content on cavity surfaces, as the cook cavity may get
damaged and lead to excessive microwave leakage.
Oven cleaning should be done while wearing proper protective equipment. This includes, but is not limited
to, the following: protective rubber gloves, eye protection and dust mask.
Use the oven Cool Down feature to allow oven, utensils and racks to cool before cleaning. Allow additional time
after Cool Down to let the oven reach a safe temperature. The oven, utensils, and racks become hot during
operation.
Cleaning the Oven
Frequent cleaning of the oven reduces the cleaning
effort and maximizes oven life and performance.
A dirty oven cooks inefciently because moisture,
spills, and grease absorb convection and microwave
energy.
Recommended Cleaning Schedule
• Schedule daily cleaning and clean after use.
• Clean interior, exterior, door and rack according
to instructions.
• Clean spills immediately.
• Wipe dry after cleaning.
