Maintenance Tips

• Daily cleaning: Brush out crumbs and food debris from each baking chamber to maintain even heat and prevent buildup that affects baking consistency.
• Exterior care: Wipe stainless steel surfaces with a damp cloth and mild cleaner when cool to prevent grease buildup and corrosion.
• Deck protection: Keep oven decks dry—avoid water or harsh chemicals that can damage steel or optional stone decks.
• Flue & ventilation check: Ensure exhaust hood and flue paths stay clear to maintain safe airflow and prevent overheating or poor baking performance.
• Burner inspection (gas models): Check flame quality weekly; steady blue flame ensures correct combustion and efficient heating.
• Control panel care: Keep thermostat and valves free from grease and heat buildup to maintain accurate temperature control.
• Door & hinge maintenance: Inspect counterbalanced doors regularly for smooth operation and proper sealing to reduce heat loss.
• Weekly deep clean: Brush interior chamber, control area, and cooling spaces to prevent carbon buildup and airflow restriction.
• Annual servicing: Have a technician check gas pressure, safety valves, and ventilation system for safe long-term operation.
