Placing the oven bottom
The oven bottom in your range has been screwed in to prevent any shifting
during moving or cooking. The oven bottom protects the recessed bake
burner area during baking or broiling.
It is necessary to remove the oven bottom for routine cleaning. The oven
bottom, burner baffle, and bake burner recess will need to be cleaned of any
excess grease or soil before a self-clean cycle is started.
To remove the oven bottom:
1. Verify all controls are in the OFF position.
2. Oven must be cool to the touch.
3. Open oven door and adjust any low oven racks to a higher rack position,
or remove racks temporarily from oven.
4. Locate two thumb screws holding oven bottom in place in rear of oven
cavity.
Remove thumb screws and retain for later use.
5. Carefully remove oven bottom from oven cavity.
Lift at rear sides and slide from front frame.
Oven bottom can be washed of excessive grease using a mild soap
and water.
6. Wipe out bake burner recess with a cloth dampened with soapy water.
7. Dry thoroughly.
8. Replace oven bottom and secure with thumb screws.
Place front edge of oven bottoms under front frame.
Lower rear of oven bottom into position and install thumb screws.
Do not overtighten thumb screws.
Oven bottom must be in place for oven to be used or for a self-clean
cycle to be run.
