    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.
