How to Clean a Convection Oven

Convection ovens are essential to provide truly even oven temperatures. These consistent temperatures are very important if you are cooking sensitive foods like soufflés, cakes and popovers. Cleaning a convection oven is similar to cleaning a normal oven.

Instructions

Difficulty: Easy

Things You’ll Need:

• Rubber gloves
• Protective eyewear
• Oven cleaner
• Old rag
• Towel

1. Verify the oven is turned off and the inside components are cool enough to touch.
2. Remove the racks from your convection oven and set them aside.
3. Spray the oven interior with oven cleaner. Spray all surfaces including the coils, sides, top, bottom, and inside of the door.
4. Follow the directions on the specific oven cleaner you choose as to how long it should be left to set.
5. Wipe away the oven cleaner using an old rag.
6. Use warm soapy water to clean the racks off and then put them back in the oven.
7. Clean the outside of the oven with a damp towel.

Tips & Warnings

• Clean without chemicals by placing an oven-safe pot with water and lemon in it inside the oven. Let the water simmer until it is nearly evaporated. Rub down the oven interior to remove the loosened debris.
• If your oven is equipped with it, simply run the self-cleaning cycle on your oven to loosen the debris. Then wipe the interior with a damp rag.
• Wear gloves as well as eye protection when using oven cleaner. It can burn you if sprayed on your skin or in your eyes.
