Step-by-Step Cleaning Instructions
1. Safety First
Before you begin cleaning, ensure that the oven is completely cool and the power is turned off. Allow the oven to cool for at least 30 minutes after use to prevent burns or accidents.
2. Remove Loose Debris
Use a soft, dry cloth or brush to remove any loose food particles, grease, or debris from the oven glass. This will make the cleaning process easier and prevent scratching the glass.
3. Apply Glass Cleaner
Spray the oven glass cleaner onto a soft cloth or sponge. Avoid spraying the cleaner directly onto the glass to prevent streaks. Gently wipe the glass in circular motions, covering the entire surface.
4. Remove Stubborn Stains
If you encounter stubborn stains, you can use a non-abrasive cleaning paste made from baking soda. Mix equal parts baking soda and water to form a thick paste. Apply the paste to the stained areas and let it sit for 15-20 minutes. Then, use a damp cloth to wipe away the paste and any remaining stains.
5. Rinse Thoroughly
Use a clean, damp cloth to wipe away any remaining cleaning solution or baking soda paste. Rinse the glass thoroughly with distilled white vinegar to remove any streaks or residue.
6. Dry the Glass
Use a dry, soft cloth to wipe the glass dry and prevent water spots. You can also use a squeegee to remove excess water and leave the glass sparkling.
7. Regular Maintenance
To keep your Wolf oven glass clean and prevent future buildup, wipe it down with a damp cloth after each use. This will help remove any splatters or spills before they have a chance to set.
Additional Tips
- Use a microfiber cloth to prevent streaks and lint.
- Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners, as they can damage the glass.
- If you have a self-cleaning oven, follow the manufacturer’s instructions for cleaning the oven glass.
- For heavily soiled glass, you can use a commercial oven cleaner specifically designed for Wolf ovens. However, follow the instructions carefully to avoid damaging the glass.
