Q: Questiondoes the white Matt finish tend to stain and what would you use to clean it and does this model have a meat probe?.

Asked 5 years ago by Amber.

This question was asked about the related product: Café - 5.6 Cu. Ft. Slide-In Gas Convection Range

• A:Answer Hi Amber, We are finding that this unit does in fact come with a temperature probe. We hope you will get a lot of use out of it this holiday season! Our Matte finishes are a highly engineered paint on metal (steel). We recommend that the interior and exterior Matte finish surfaces be treated similar to high-end coatings on automobiles. The Matte White and Matte Black finishes are not engineered for use with soap-filled scouring pads, abrasive cleaners any cleaning product containing chlorine bleach and/or abrasive cloths and paper towels. Use of these types of products may scratch and/or dull the Matte White and Matte Black finish. - In order to avoid scratching or damaging finish surfaces, they should be cleaned with a soft, clean cloth or microfiber cloth, warm water, and a mild soap or detergent solution. The appliance finish surface should then be wiped dry with a soft, clean cloth or microfiber towel to avoid streaking or water spotting. We hope that this helped! Thank you very much for taking the time to send us a question. -Michael

Q: QuestionIt looks like this oven model partially vents directly onto the wall behind it. Is there a piece I can buy to modify this so if only vents forward?

Asked 4 years ago by Expensive.

This question was asked about the related product: Café - 5.6 Cu. Ft. Slide-In Gas Convection Range

• A:Answer Hey there, and thanks for reaching out to us about this range! We appreciate your interest and know how important venting location is. For this model, air openings are located at the rear of the cooktop, at the top and bottom of the oven door, and at the bottom of the range. At this time, there is not an option to only vent forward. We would not recommend that the venting system for our ranges be changed at all, as the design is integral to the unit's functioning and other venting options haven't been tested for safety and reliability. Any venting changes made to a range may invalidate the warranty. We apologize if this causes any inconvenience. If you have any other questions or concerns, we are always happy to help over social media. Wishing you the best! -Sarah@Cafe

Q: QuestionDoes this model have air fry?

Asked 4 years ago by ladyj.

This question was asked about the related product: Café - 5.6 Cu. Ft. Slide-In Gas Convection Range

• A:Answer The oven has Convection Bake and Convection Roast options. I believe if you placed the food on a wire inside a pan those settings would be like "air fry". It's the air flow around all sides of the food that allows the air fryer to get the overall crispness. Stores are current selling wire rack/pan sets for just that purpose.

Q: QuestionDo the cast iron grates need to be seasoned before using? Do spills on grates clean easily?

Asked 6 years ago by LBNYC.

This question was asked about the related product: Café - 5.6 Cu. Ft. Slide-In Gas Convection Range

• A:Answer Hi LBNYC - Heavy-cast iron continuous grates can be washed in the sink, dishwasher, or the self-cleaning cycle. These grates create a very stable and even cooking surface. All gas burner grates have a porcelain enamel coating, which allows for easier cleaning, prevents rusting, and provides a smooth look. Seasoning is not necessary. The Owner's Manual included with the range and at the following link provides complete details on cleaning the various parts of the range: https://products.cafeappliances.com/MarketingObjectRetrieval/Dispatcher?RequestType=PDF&Name=49-85255-1.PDF - Also, on nearly every piece in the Café Customizable Professional Collection, you have the option to change your hardware to a different finish to bring your personal kitchen vision to life.
