The interior of your new oven can be cleaned manually or by using Steam Clean or Self Clean modes.
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, abrasive cleaners, strong 
liquid cleansers, steel wool, scouring pads, or cleaning 
powders 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.
Steam Clean Mode (on some models)
Steam clean is intended to clean small spills using water 
and a lower cleaning temperature than Self-Clean. 
To use the Steam Clean feature, wipe grease and soils 
from the oven. Pour one cup of water into the bottom of 
the oven. Close the door. Press the Steam Clean pad 
and then press Start. The oven door will lock. You can 
not open the door during the 30 minute steam clean as 
this will decrease the steam clean performance. At the 
end of the steam clean cycle the door will unlock. Wipe 
out any excess water and any remaining soil.

Porcelain Oven Interior (on some models)
With proper care, the porcelain enamel finish on the 
inside of the oven—top, bottom, sides, back and inside 
of the door—will stay new-looking for years. 
Let the oven cool before cleaning. We recommend that 
you wear rubber gloves when cleaning the oven.
Soap and water will normally do the job. Heavy 
spattering or spillovers may require cleaning with a mild 
abrasive cleaner. Soap-filled scouring pads may also be 
used. 
Do not allow food spills with a high sugar or acid content 
(such as tomatoes, sauerkraut, fruit juices or pie filling) 
to remain on the surface. They may cause a dull spot 
even after cleaning.
Household ammonia may make the cleaning job easier. 
Place 1/2 cup in a shallow glass or pottery container 
in a cold oven overnight. The ammonia fumes will help 
loosen the burned-on grease and food.
If necessary, you may use an oven cleaner. Follow the 
package directions.
   Do not spray oven cleaner on the electrical controls 
and switches because it could cause  
a short circuit and result in sparking or fire.
   Do not allow a film from the cleaner to build up on 
the temperature sensor—it could cause the oven to 
heat improperly. (The sensor is located at the top of 
the oven.) Carefully wipe the sensor clean after each 
oven cleaning, being careful not to move the sensor 
as a change in its position could affect how the oven 
bakes.
   Do not spray any oven cleaner on the oven door, 
handles or any exterior surface of the oven, cabinets 
or painted surfaces. The cleaner can damage these 
surfaces.
