How to Remove Packaging Tape
To assure no damage is done to the finish of the
product, the safest way to remove adhesive left from
packaging tape on new appliances is an application of
a household liquid dishwashing detergent, mineral oil
or cooking oil. Apply with a soft cloth and allow to
soak. Wipe dry and then apply an appliance polish to
thoroughly clean and protect the surface.
NOTE: The plastic tape must be removed from the
chrome trim on oven parts. It cannot be removed if it
is baked on.
Write down the model and serial numbers.
You’ll find them on a label on the front of the oven
behind the oven door.
These numbers are also on the Consumer Product
Ownership Registration Card that came with your
oven. Before sending in this card, please write these
numbers here:
Model Number
Serial Number
Use these numbers in any correspondence or service
calls concerning your oven.
If you received a damaged oven…
Immediately contact the dealer (or builder) that sold
you the oven.
Save time and money.
Before you request service…
Check the Problem Solver in the back of this guide.
It lists causes of minor operating problems that you

Important Safety Instructions
IMPOR TANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Read all instructions before using this appliance.
When using electrical appliances, basic
safety precautions should be followed, including
the following:
• Use this appliance only for its intended use
as described in this guide.
• Have the installer show you the location of
the circuit breaker or fuse. Mark it for easy
reference.
• Be sure your appliance is properly installed and
grounded by a qualified technician in accordance
with the provided Installation Instructions.
• Do not attempt to repair or replace any part of
your oven unless it is specifically recommended
in this guide. All other servicing should be
referred to a qualified technician.
• Before performing any service, DISCONNECT
THE OVEN POWER SUPPLY AT THE
HOUSEHOLD DISTRIBUTION PANEL BY
REMOVING THE FUSE OR SWITCHING OFF
THE CIRCUIT BREAKER.
• Do not leave children alone—children should
not be left alone or unattended in an area where an
appliance is in use. They should never be allowed
to sit or stand on any part of the appliance.
• Do not allow anyone to climb, stand or hang on
the door. They could damage the oven.
• CAUTION: ITEMS OF INTEREST TO
CHILDREN SHOULD NOT BE STORED IN
CABINETS ABOVE AN OVEN. CHILDREN
CLIMBING ON THE OVEN TO REACH
ITEMS COULD BE SERIOUSLY INJURED.
• Teach children not to play with the controls
or any other part of the oven.
• Never leave the oven door open when you are
not watching the oven.
• Always keep combustible wall coverings,
curtains or drapes a safe distance from
your oven.
• Never wear loose-fitting or hanging garments
while using the appliance. Be careful when
reaching for items stored in cabinets over the
oven. Flammable material could be ignited if
brought in contact with hot heating elements
and may cause severe burns.
• DO NOT STORE OR USE COMBUSTIBLE
MATERIALS, GASOLINE OR OTHER
FLAMMABLE VAPORS AND LIQUIDS IN
THE VICINITY OF THIS OR ANY OTHER
APPLIANCE.
• Use only dry pot holders—moist or
damp pot holders on hot surfaces may
result in burns from steam. Do not let
pot holders touch hot heating elements. Do not
use a towel or other bulky cloth. Such cloths can
catch fire on a hot heating element.
• Always keep dish towels, dish cloths, pot
holders and other linens a safe distance from
your oven.
• Always keep wooden and plastic utensils
and canned food a safe distance away from
your oven.
• For your safety, never use your appliance for
warming or heating the room.
• Do not leave paper products, cooking utensils
or food in the oven when not in use.
• Do not store flammable materials in the oven.
• Do not let cooking grease or other flammable
materials accumulate in or near the oven.
• Be sure the oven is securely installed in a
cabinet that is firmly attached to the house
structure. Never allow anyone to climb, sit,
stand or hang on the oven door.

IMPOR TANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
(continued)
• Do not use water on grease fires.
Smother fire or flame or use a multipurpose dry chemical or foam-type
fire extinguisher .
Flame in the oven can be smothered completely
by closing the oven door and turning the oven
off or by using a multi-purpose dry chemical or
foam-type fire extinguisher.
• Do not touch the heating elements or the
interior surface of the oven. These surfaces may
be hot enough to burn even though they are dark
in color. During and after use, do not touch, or let
clothing or other flammable materials contact,
any interior area of the oven; allow sufficient
time for cooling first.
Potentially hot surfaces include the oven vent
openings and surfaces near the openings, crevices
around the oven door and the edges of the door
window and metal trim above the door.
Remember: The inside surface of the oven may
be hot when the door is opened.
• When cooking pork, follow the directions
exactly and always cook the meat to an internal
temperature of at least 170°F. This assures that, in
the remote possibility that trichina may be present
in the meat, it will be killed and the meat will be
safe to eat.
Oven
• Stand away from the oven when opening the
oven door. The hot air or steam which escapes
can cause burns to hands, face and/or eyes.
• Do not heat unopened food containers.
Pressure could build up and the container could
burst, causing an injury.
• Keep the oven vent duct
unobstructed.
• Keep the oven free from grease
buildup.
• Place the oven shelf in the desired position
while the oven is cool. If the shelves must be
handled when hot, do not let pot holder contact
heating elements.
• Pulling out the shelf to the stop-lock is a
convenience in lifting heavy foods. It is also
a precaution against burns from touching hot
surfaces of the door or oven walls.
• When using cooking or roasting bags in the
oven, follow the manufacturer’s directions.
• Do not use your oven to dry newspapers.
If overheated, they can catch fire.
• Do not use the oven for a storage area. Items
stored in an oven can ignite.
• Do not use aluminum foil to line oven bottom,
except as suggested in this guide. Improper
installation of aluminum foil may result in a risk of
electric shock or fire.
• Never try to move a pan of hot fat, especially
a deep fat fryer. Wait until the fat is cool.
• Never leave jars or cans of fat drippings in
or near your oven.
• After broiling, always take the broiler pan
out of the oven and clean it. Leftover grease

USING YOUR OVEN
Before Using Your Oven
1. Look at the controls. Be sure you understand
how to set them properly.
2. Check the oven interior. Look at the shelves.
Take a practice run at removing and replacing
them properly to give sure, sturdy support.
3. Read over the information and tips that follow.
4. Keep this guide handy so you can refer to it,
especially during the first weeks of using your
new oven.
NOTE: You may notice a “burning” or “oily”
smell the first few times you turn your oven on.
This is normal in a new oven and will disappear in
a short time.
Special Features of Your Oven Control Using Your Oven
Oven Shelves
The shelves are designed with stop-locks so that,
when placed correctly on the shelf supports, they
will stop before coming completely out of the oven,
and will not tilt when you are removing food from
them or placing food on them.
When placing the cookware on a shelf, pull the shelf
out to the bump on the shelf support. Place the
cookware on the shelf, then slide the shelf back into
the oven. This will eliminate reaching into the hot oven.
To remove a shelf from the
oven, pull the shelf toward
you, tilt the front
end upward and pull the shelf out.
To replace, place the
shelf on the shelf
support with the stoplocks (curved extension
of the shelf) facing up
and toward the rear of
the oven. Tilt up the
front and push the shelf
toward the back of the
oven until it goes past
the bump on the shelf support.
Then lower the front of the shelf
and push it all the way back.
Shelf Positions
The oven has 4 shelf supports identified in this
illustration as A (bottom), B, C and D (top).
Shelf positions for cooking are suggested in the
Baking, Roasting and Broiling sections.
A
B
C
D
Bump
Oven Vent
When the oven is on, heated air moves through a vent above the door or
between door and air grille.
The vent area could get hot during oven use.
The vent is needed for proper air flow in the oven and good baking results.
Do not block this vent.

Your oven temperature is controlled very accurately
using an oven control system. It is recommended that
you operate the oven for a number of weeks using the
time given on recipes as a guide to become familiar
with your new oven’s performance.
If you think an adjustment is necessary, see the Adjust
the Oven Thermostat section. It lists easy
Do It
Yourself instructions on how to adjust the thermostat.
How to Set Your Oven for Baking
To avoid possible burns, place the shelves in the
correct position before you turn the oven on.
1. Press BAKE.
2. Press the TEMP + or – pads to set the
oven temperature.
3. Press START.
When the oven starts to heat the
changing temperature will be in the
display. (The display starts changing
once the temperature reaches 100°F.)
4. Press CLEAR/OFF when baking
is finished.
NOTE: A cooling fan may automatically turn on and
off to cool internal parts. This is normal, and the fan
may continue to run even after the oven is turned off.
To change the oven temperature during the
Bake cycle, press the BAKE pad and set the new
temperature.

Baking
Preheating
Preheat the oven if the recipe calls for it. Preheat
means bringing the oven up to the specified
temperature before putting the food in the oven.
To preheat, set the oven at the correct temperature—
selecting a higher temperature does not shorten
preheat time.
Preheating is necessary for good results when baking
cakes, cookies, pastry and breads. For most casseroles
and roasts, preheating is not necessary. For ovens
without a preheat indicator light or tone, preheat 10
minutes. After the oven is preheated, place the food
in the oven as quickly as possible to prevent heat
from escaping.
Baking Pans Pan Placement
Use the proper baking pan. The type of finish on the
pan determines the amount of browning that will occur.
• Dark, rough or dull pans absorb heat resulting in a
browner, crisper crust. Use this type for pies.
• Shiny, bright and smooth pans reflect heat, resulting
in a lighter, more delicate browning. Cakes and
cookies require this type of pan.
• Glass baking dishes also absorb heat. When baking
in glass baking dishes, the temperature may need to
be reduced by 25°F.
• If you are using dark non-stick pans, you may find
that you need to reduce the oven temperature 25°F.
to prevent over-browning.
For even cooking and proper browning, there must be
enough room for air circulation in the oven. Baking
results will be better if baking pans are centered as
much as possible rather than being placed to the front
or to the back of the oven.
Pans should not touch each other or the walls of the
oven. Allow 1- to 1
1
⁄2-inch space between pans as
well as from the back of the oven, the door and the
sides. If you need to use two shelves, stagger the pans
so one is not directly above the other.
Cookies
When baking cookies, flat cookie sheets (without
sides) produce better-looking cookies. Cookies baked
in a jelly roll pan (short sides all around) may have
darker edges and pale or light browning may occur.
Do not use a cookie sheet so large that it touches the
walls or the door of the oven. Never entirely cover
a shelf with a large cookie sheet.
For best results during baking, use only one cookie
sheet in the oven at a time.
(continued next page)
Page 14
BAKING
(continued)
Pies Cakes
For best results, bake pies in dark, rough or dull pans
to produce a browner, crisper crust. Frozen pies in foil
pans should be placed on an aluminum cookie sheet
for baking since the shiny foil pan reflects heat away
from the pie crust; the cookie sheet helps retain it.
When baking cakes, warped or bent pans will cause
uneven baking results and poorly shaped products.
A cake baked in a pan larger than the recipe
recommends will usually be crisper, thinner and drier
than it should be. If baked in a pan smaller than
recommended, it may be undercooked and batter may
overflow. Check the recipe to make sure the pan size
used is the one recommended.
14
Aluminum Foil
Never entirely cover a shelf with aluminum foil.
This will disturb the heat circulation and result in
poor baking. A smaller sheet of foil may be used
to catch a spillover by placing it on a lower shelf
several inches below the food.
Don’t Peek
Set the timer for the estimated cooking time and do
not open the door to look at your food. Most recipes
provide minimum and maximum baking times such
as “bake 30-40 minutes.”
DO NOT open the door to check until the
minimum time. Opening the oven door frequently
during cooking allows heat to escape and makes
baking times longer. Your baking results may also
be affected.

ADJUST THE OVEN THERMOSTAT—
DO IT YOURSELF!
You may find that your new oven cooks differently
than the one it replaced. We recommend that you
use your new oven for a few weeks to become more
familiar with it, following the times given in your
recipes as a guide.
If you think your new oven is too hot or too cool,
you can adjust the thermostat yourself. If you think
it is too hot, adjust the thermostat to make it cooler. If
you think it is too cool, adjust the thermostat to make
it hotter.
We do not recommend the use of inexpensive
thermometers, such as those found in grocery stores,
to check the temperature setting of your new oven.
These thermometers may vary 20–40 degrees.
To Adjust the Thermostat:
1. Press BAKE and BROIL HI/LO at
the same time for 2 seconds until
the display shows “SF.”
2. Press BAKE. A two digit number
shows in the display.
3. The oven temperature can be
adjusted up to (+) 35°F. hotter or
(-) 35°F. cooler. Press the TEMP +
pad to increase the temperature in
1 degree increments. Press the
TEMP – pad to decrease the
temperature in 1 degree increments.
4. When you have made the
adjustment, press START to go
back to the time of day display . Use
your oven as you would normally.
NOTE: This adjustment will not affect the broiling
temperature. It will be retained in memory after a
power failure.

ROASTING
Roasting is cooking by dry heat. Tender meat or
poultry can be roasted uncovered in your oven.
Roasting temperatures, which should be low and
steady, keep spattering to a minimum.
Roasting is really a baking procedure used for meats.
Therefore, the oven controls are set for Baking or
Timed Baking. (You may hear a slight clicking sound,
indicating the oven is working properly.) Timed
Baking will turn the oven on and off automatically.
Most meats continue to cook slightly after being
removed from the oven. The internal temperature
will rise about 5° to 10°F. during the recommended
standing time of 10 to 20 minutes. This allows
roasts to firm up and makes them easier to carve.
To compensate for this rise in temperature, you may
want to remove the roast sooner (at 5° to 10°F. less
than the temperature in the Roasting Guide).
Remember that food will continue to cook in the hot
oven and therefore should be removed when the
desired internal temperature has been reached.
Use of Aluminum Foil
You can use aluminum foil to line the broiler pan.
This makes clean-up easier when using the pan for
marinating, cooking with fruits, cooking heavily
cured meats or basting food during cooking. Press
the foil tightly around the inside of the pan.
How to Set Your Oven for Roasting
1. Place the shelf in A or B position. No preheating
is necessary.
2. Check the weight of the
meat. Place the meat fat
side up, or poultry
breast side up, on
roasting grid in a
shallow pan. The
melting fat will baste
the meat. Select a pan
as close to the size of
the meat as possible.
(The broiler pan with grid is a good pan for this.)
3. Press BAKE.
4. Press the TEMP + or – pads to set
the temperature.
5. Press START.
6. Press CLEAR/OFF when roasting
is finished.
To change the oven temperature during the
roasting cycle, press BAKE and set the new
temperature.

Questions and Answers
Q. Is it necessary to check for doneness with a
meat thermometer?
A. Checking the finished internal temperature at the
completion of cooking time is recommended.
Temperatures are shown in the Roasting Guide.
For roasts over 8 pounds, check with thermometer
at half-hour intervals after half the cooking time
has passed.
Q. Why is my roast crumbling when I try to
carve it?
A. Roasts are easier to slice if allowed to cool 10 to
20 minutes after removing them from the oven.
Be sure to cut across the grain of the meat.
Q. Do I need to preheat my oven each time I cook a
roast or poultry?
A. It is not necessary to preheat your oven.
Q. When buying a roast, are there any special tips
that would help me cook it more evenly?
A. Yes. Buy a roast as even in thickness as possible,
or buy rolled roasts.
Q. Can I seal the sides of my foil “tent” when
roasting a turkey?
A. Sealing the foil will steam the meat. Leaving it
unsealed allows the air to circulate and brown
the meat.

ROASTING GUIDE
Frozen Roasts
Frozen roasts of beef, pork, lamb, etc., can be started
without thawing, but allow 10 to 25 minutes per
pound additional time (10 minutes per pound for
roasts under 5 pounds, more time for larger roasts).
Make sure poultry is thawed before roasting.
Unthawed poultry often does not cook evenly.
Some commercial frozen poultry can be cooked
successfully without thawing. Follow the directions
given on the package label.
Page 20
BROILING
Broiling is cooking food by intense radiant heat from the
upper broil element in the oven. Most fish and tender
cuts of meat can be broiled. Follow these directions to
keep spattering and smoking to a minimum.
If the meat has fat or gristle around the edge, cut
vertical slashes through both about 2 inches apart. If
desired, the fat may be trimmed, leaving a layer about
1/8 inch thick.
Place the meat on the broiler grid in the broiler pan.
Always use the grid so the fat drips into the broiler
pan; otherwise the juices may become hot enough to
catch on fire.
Position a shelf on recommended shelf position as
suggested in the Broiling Guide. Most broiling is done
on C position, but if your oven is connected to 208
volts, you may wish to use a higher position.
Leave the door open to
the broil stop position. The
door stays open by itself, yet
the proper temperature is
maintained in the oven.
Turn the food using tongs only once during broiling.
Time the foods for the first side according to the
Broiling Guide.
Turn the food, then use the times given for the second
side as a guide to the preferred doneness.
How to Set Your Oven for Broiling
1. Press BROIL HI/LO.
2. Press BROIL HI/LO again (alternates
between LO Broil and HI Broil).
3. Press START.
4. Press CLEAR/OFF when broiling
is finished.

Use of Aluminum Foil
You can use aluminum foil to line your broiler pan
and broiler grid. However, you must mold the foil
tightly to the grid and cut slits in it just like the grid.
Without the slits, the foil will prevent fat and meat
juices from draining into the broiler pan. The juices
could become hot enough to catch on fire. If you do
not cut the slits, you are frying, not broiling.
Questions and Answers
Q. Why are my meats not turning out as brown
as they should?
A. In some areas, the power (voltage) to the oven may
be low. In these cases, preheat the broil element for
10 minutes before placing the broiler pan with
food in the oven. Check to see if you are using the
recommended shelf position. Broil for the longest
period of time indicated in the Broiling Guide.
Turn the food only once during broiling. You may
need to move the food to a higher shelf position.
Q. When broiling, is it necessary to always use a
grid in the pan?
A. Yes. Using the grid suspends the meat over the pan.
As the meat cooks, the juices fall into the pan, thus
keeping meat drier. Juices are protected by the grid
and stay cooler, thus preventing excessive spatter
and smoking.
Q. Should I salt the meat before broiling?
A. No. Salt draws out the juices and allows them to
evaporate. Always salt after cooking. Piercing the
meat with a fork allows juices to escape. Turn the
meat with tongs instead of a fork.

• Always use the broiler pan and grid that comes with
your oven. It is designed to minimize smoking and
spattering by trapping juices in the shielded lower
part of the pan.
• The oven door should be open to the broil
stop position.
• For steaks and chops, slash fat evenly around the
outside edges of the meat. To slash, cut crosswise
through the outer fat surface just to the edge of the
meat. Use tongs to turn meat over to prevent
piercing the meat and losing juices.
• If desired, marinate meats or chicken before
broiling, or brush with barbecue sauce last 5 to
10 minutes only.
• When arranging food on the pan, do not let fatty
edges hang over the sides because the dripping fat
will soil the oven.
• The broiler does not need to be preheated. However,
for very thin foods, or to increase browning, preheat
if desired.
• Frozen steaks can be broiled by positioning the oven
shelf at next lowest shelf position and increasing
cooking time given in this guide 1
1
⁄2times per side.
• Use LO Broil to cook foods such as poultry or thick
pork chops thoroughly without over-browning them.
• If your oven is connected to 208 volts, rare steaks
may be broiled by preheating the broiler and
positioning the oven shelf one position higher.

CARE AND CLEANING
Proper care and cleaning are important so your oven will give you efficient
and satisfactory service. Follow these directions carefully in caring for your
oven to assure safe and proper maintenance.
BE SURE ELECTRICAL POWER IS OFF AND ALL SURFACES
ARE COOL BEFORE CLEANING ANY PART OF THE OVEN.
Oven Heating Elements
Do not clean the bake element or the broil element.
Any soil will burn off when the elements are heated.
The bake element can be lifted gently to clean the
oven floor. If spillovers, residue or ash accumulate
around the bake element gently wipe around the
element with warm water.
Broil element
Bake element
Oven Shelves
Clean the oven shelves with a mild abrasive
cleanser or steel wool.
After cleaning, rinse the shelves with clean water and
dry with a clean cloth.
Oven Light
The light bulb is located in the upper right corner of
the oven. Before replacing the bulb, disconnect
electrical power to the oven at the main fuse or circuit
breaker panel. Let the bulb cool completely before
removing it. Replace the bulb with a 40-watt
appliance bulb only. Do not touch a hot bulb with a
damp cloth because the bulb will break.

Care and Cleaning
Lift-Off Oven Door
The oven door is
removable, but it is heavy.
You may need help
removing and replacing
the door. Do not lift the
door by the handle. This
can cause the glass to
break or can cause
damage to the door.
To remove the door,
open it a few inches to the special stop position that
will hold the door open. Grasp firmly on each side
and lift the door straight up and off the hinges.
NOTE:
• Be careful not to place hands between the hinge
and the oven door frame as the hinge could snap
back and pinch fingers.
• While working in the oven area, cover the hinges
with towels or empty paper towel rolls to prevent
pinched fingers and chipping the porcelain enamel
on the frame.
To replace the door, make sure the hinges are in the
special stop position. Position the slots in the bottom
of the door squarely over the hinges at the same time.
If the hinges snap back against the oven frame, pull
them back out.
TO CLEAN THE DOOR:
Inside of door:
• Soap and water will normally do the job. Heavy
spattering or spillovers may require cleaning with a
mild abrasive cleaner . Soapy, wet metal pads may also
be used. Do not allow food spills with a high sugar or
acid content (such as milk, tomatoes, sauerkraut, fruit
juices or pie filling) to remain on the surface. They
may cause a dull spot even after cleaning.
• If necessary, you may use an oven cleaner.
Follow the package directions. Do not use oven
cleaners, cleansing powders or harsh abrasives
on the outside of the door.
Outside of door:
• Use soap and water to thoroughly clean the top,
sides and front of the oven door. Rinse well.
You may also use a glass cleaner to clean the
glass on the outside of the door.
• Spillage of marinades, fruit juices, tomato sauces
and basting materials containing acids may cause
discoloration and should be wiped up immediately.
When the surface is cool, clean and rinse.
Porcelain Oven Interior
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. Soapy, wet metal pads may also
be used. Do not allow food spills with a high sugar or
acid content (such as milk, 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 package directions.
Cautions about using spray-on oven cleaners:
• Do not spray 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 outside of the
door, handles or any exterior surface of the oven,
cabinet or painted surfaces. The cleaner can damage
these surfaces.

CARE AND CLEANING
(continued)
Glass Window Painted Surfaces
To clean the outside of the oven window, use a glass
cleaner. Rinse and polish with a dry cloth.
Do not allow the water or cleaner to run down
inside the openings in the glass or the openings in
the top of the oven door while cleaning.
Painted surfaces include the outside oven door and
control panel.
Clean these with soap and water or a vinegar and
water solution. Do not use commercial oven
cleaners, cleansing powders, steel wool or harsh
abrasives on any painted surface.
Control Panel
It’s a good idea to wipe the control panel after each use of the oven.
Clean with mild soap and water or vinegar and water, rinse with clean water
and polish dry with a soft cloth.
Do not use abrasive cleansers, strong liquid cleaners, plastic scouring
pads or oven cleansers on the control panel—they will damage the finish.
A 50/50 solution of vinegar and hot water works well.
Broiler Pan and Grid
After broiling, remove the broiler pan and grid from
the oven. Remove the grid from the pan. Carefully
pour out grease from the pan into a proper container.
Wash and rinse the broiler pan and grid in hot water
with a soap-filled or plastic scouring pad.
If food has burned on, sprinkle the grid with
detergent while hot and cover with wet paper
towels or a dishcloth. Soaking the pan will remove
burned-on foods.
Both the broiler pan and grid may be cleaned with a
commercial oven cleaner.
Do not store a soiled broiler pan and grid anywhere
in the oven.
Do not clean the broiler pan and grid in the
self-cleaning oven.
Both the broiler pan and grid can also be cleaned
in the dishwasher.
