CLEANING
Oven Exterior
Painted Surfaces should be cleaned when cool, using a mild
soap and warm water solution on a sponge or soft clean
cloth. Rinse and dry thoroughly with a soft clean cloth.
Stainless Steel Surfaces usually respond to cleaning as noted
above. Stubborn stains or heat tint may require the use of
a commercial type cleaner, such as Penny Brite or stainless
steel pad. Always rub in the direction of the polished lines.
Rinse thoroughly with fresh water and wipe dry.
Oven Interior
Aluminized Steel Surfaces Should be cleaned with a damp
soft cloth and mild household detergent.
Core Plates
CAUTION: The use of water to cool down or clean core
plates will void warranty.
To clean core plates, set thermostat dial to 550 degrees F
(288 degrees C) at the end of the cooking day and allow
thermostat to cycle for one hour. When the oven has cooled,
cooking residue will be carbonized and can be removed
by sweeping with a stiff brush. Stubborn residue can be
loosened with a scraper.
3. Select a temperature of 300 degrees F (150 degrees C)
and turn the gas cock dial to the ON position.
4. Allow the oven to warm to 300 degrees F (150
degrees C) and keep it there for FIVE HOURS, or at least
until all smoke and fumes have disappeared. The smoke
and fumes are from moisture in the deck and insulation
and a light coat of oil.
5. Turn the thermostat knob to between 475 degrees F (250
degrees C). Allow the oven to warm up to your selected
temperature for 1 to 1 1/2 hours.
6. When the oven has reached the selected temperature,
experiment until you get the feel of the oven and the
speed of the bake. In case of some initial unevenness in
the baking, have patience for a few days until the oven
cures.
