GE JBS65 - Cleaning the Range - Interior

49-80689-9 17
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

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. Latch the door. 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, wipe out any excess water and any
remaining soil.

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.
