the door.
•
We recommend venting your kitchen
with an open window or using a
ventilation fan or hood during the self-
cleaning cycle.
•
Remove the wire rack, broil pan, broil
pan insert, all cookware, and any
aluminum foil from the oven.
•
Wipe up debris from the oven bottom.
(Fig. 1)
•
Residue on the front frame of the range
and outside the gasket on the door will
need to be cleaned by hand. Clean these
areas with hot water, soap-filled steel-
wool pads, or cleansers, such as Soft
Scrub. Rinse well with clean water and
dry.
•
Do not clean the gasket. The fiberglass
material of the oven door gasket cannot
withstand abrasion. It is essential for
the gasket to remain intact. If you notice
it becoming worn or frayed, have it
replaced. (Fig. 2)
•
Make sure the oven light bulb cover is in
place and the oven light is off.
NOTE
Remove oven racks and accessories before starting the self-clean mode.
Maintaining your appliance
Self-cleaning
This self-cleaning oven uses high temperatures (well above cooking temperatures)
to burn off leftover grease and residue completely or reduce them to a finely
powdered ash that you can wipe away with a damp cloth.
CAUTION
•
During the self-cleaning cycle, the outside surface of the range will become
very hot to the touch.
Do not
leave small children unattended near the
appliance.
•
Some birds are extremely sensitive to the fumes given off during the self-
cleaning cycle of any range. Move birds to another well-ventilated room.
•
Do not
line the oven walls, racks, bottom, or any other part of the range with
aluminum foil. Doing so will result in poor heat distribution, poor baking results,
and cause permanent damage to the oven interior. Aluminum foil will melt and
adhere to the interior surface of the oven.
•
Do not
force the oven door open. This can damage the automatic door locking
system. Use care when opening the oven door after the self-cleaning cycle is
complete. Stand to the side of the oven when opening the door to allow hot air
or steam to escape. The oven may still be
VERY HOT
.
•
Wear the glove during cleaning.
•
Opening a window or turning on a ventilation fan or hood is recommended
during and after self-cleaning.
