HELPFUL HINTS

•  Wash the accessories in warm soapy water. If necessary, use a nylon scrubber, safe for non-stick coating, to remove stuck-on food.
•  Wipe the inside of the Oven and door with a damp cloth or sponge. Wipe dry with paper towels to be sure the oven interior is dry.

NOTE: If the glass door has stubborn stains, open the door and cover the inside of the door with a few damp paper towels. Leave for a few minutes, then remove paper towels and wipe door clean. Never use sharp utensils to clean the Oven glass door as scratching may weaken it and cause it to shatter.4. Wipe the outside of the oven with a damp cloth or sponge.
5. All Servicing, other than cleaning, should be performed by an authorized service representative. See Warranty Section. IMPORTANT: DO NOT use abrasive cleaners or pads on the inside or outside of the Oven. NOTE: The best way to keep your oven clean and operating safely is to let the Oven cool to room temperature and wipe away any spills, spatter, and crumbs after each use. A short supply cord is provided to reduce the hazards of becoming entangled in or tripping over a long cord. Extension cords may be used if care is exercised in their use. If an extension cord is used, the marked electrical rating of the detachable power-supply cord or extension cord should be at least as great as the electrical rating of the appliance. If the appliance is of the grounded type, the extension cord should be a grounded 3-wire cord. The extension cord should be arranged so that it will not drape over the countertop or tabletop, where it can be pulled on by children or tripped over.
