CARE AND CLEANING
Many different cleaning agents are recommended for the various parts of the wall oven. The following brands may help
you to make an appropriate selection: Mild abrasive cleaners (Bon Ami, Cameo, Soft Scrub, Comet or Ajax); mild liquid
sprays (Fantastik, Formula 409); glass cleaners (Windex, Glass Plus, Cinch); non-abrasive scouring pad (Tuffy). If a
cleaning product is recommended for use on plastic, glass or porcelain, it can be used on the same appliance finish.
Be sure oven is off and all parts are cool before cleaning.
