Self-Cleaning Oven

A Self-Cleaning oven cleans itself with high temperatures 

(well above cooking temperatures) which eliminate soils 

completely or reduces them to a fine powdered ash you can 

wipe away with a damp cloth.

Adhere to the following cleaning precautions:

•  DO NOT 

use oven cleaners or oven protective coatings 

in or around any part of the Self-Cleaning oven.

•  DO NOT

 clean the oven door gasket. The woven material 

of the oven door gasket is essential for a good seal. 

Care should be taken not to rub, damage or remove the 

gasket.

•  DO NOT

 use any cleaning materials on the oven door 

gasket. Doing so could cause damage.

 

Remove the broiler pan and insert, all utensils and 

any aluminum foil. These items cannot withstand 

high cleaning temperatures.

  Remove oven racks. If they are not removed during the  

Self-Clean cycle their color will turn slightly blue and the 

finish will be dull. After the cycle is complete and the 

oven has cooled, rub the sides of the oven racks with 

wax paper or a cloth containing a small amount of salad 

oil (this will make the racks glide easier into the rack 

position).

 

Remove any excessive spillovers

 in the oven cavity 

before

 starting the Self-Cleaning cycle. To clean, use hot, 

soapy water and a cloth. Large spillovers can cause heavy 

smoke or fire when subjected to high temperatures. 

DO 

NOT 

allow food spills with a high sugar or acid content 

(such as milk, tomatoes, sauerkraut, fruit juices or pie 

filling) to remain on the surface as they may leave a dull 

spot even after cleaning.

  Clean any soil from the oven frame, the door liner outside 

the oven door gasket and the small area at the front 

center of the oven bottom. These areas heat sufficiently 

to burn soil on. Clean with soap and water.

NOTE: Prior to setting the Self-Clean cycle, any spills remaining 

on the oven bottom should be removed.

The Bake element is located in the lower oven cavity (See 

illustration at left).The bake element is designed to be tilted 

up using your hand from the front of the bake element. This 

will allow easier access to the oven bottom for cleaning. 

Remove the Bottom Rack before raising the element. Be 

careful not to raise the element more than 4 or 5 inches 

from the resting position.

SELF-CLEANING

CAUTION

CAUTION

Note: See additional 

cleaning information 

for the oven door in 

the 

General Care & 

Cleaning

 section.

During the Self-Cleaning cycle, the outside of the range 

can become very hot to the touch. 

DO NOT

 leave small 

children unattended near the appliance.

The health of some birds is 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 destroy 

heat distribution, produce poor baking results and cause 

permanent damage to the oven interior (aluminum foil 

will melt to the interior surface of the oven).

DO NOT

 force the oven door open. This can damage the 

automatic door locking system. Use caution when opening 

the door after the Self-Cleaning cycle is completed. The 

oven may still be VERY HOT.

Baking element may be 

tilted about 4 or 5 inches 

to clean oven bottom

The oven bake and broil elements may appear to have 

cooled after they have been turned OFF. 

The elements 

may still be hot

 and burns may occur if these elements 

are touched before they have cooled sufficiently.
