Fresh clean
Before starting fresh clean
• Remove all items from the oven and cooktop,
including food, cookware, utensils, plastic and
any aluminum foil. Aluminum foil will not
withstand high temperatures generated during
the self-clean cycle.
• Remove all oven racks and accessories from
the oven interior to avoid possible damage. If the
oven racks are not removed they may discolor.
The Luxury Glide™ oven rack must be removed
before starting self-clean to avoid damaging the
glide ability of the rack. “Remove racks” will flash
in the display for several seconds as reminder to
remove the racks before starting a self-clean
cycle (Figure 1).
Adhere to the following precautions before
starting fresh clean (self-clean cycle):

Clean any soil from the oven exterior. Clean using
soap and water before starting a self-clean cycle. If
soils are not removed, they may burn on due to the
high temperatures during self-clean.
For best results
• Be sure the oven vent area is clear.
• Remove all items from the storage drawer.
• Be sure the oven light shield is in place. Turn off
the oven light.
• Remove any excess spills or loose debris.
Spills on the oven bottom should be wiped-up
and removed before starting self-clean. To
clean, use hot, soapy water and a cloth. Large
food spillovers can cause heavy smoke or a fire
during self-clean. Spills that have a high sugar or
acid content (such as milk, tomatoes,
sauerkraut, fruit juices or pie filling) may leave a
dull spot even after self-cleaning.
• Do not clean the oven door gasket (Figure 2).
Do not use any cleaning materials on the oven
door gasket. Doing so may damage the 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 door gasket.
• Do not use commercial oven cleaners or
protective coatings of any kind inside oven.
Residue from oven cleaners may damage the
porcelain during the next self-clean cycle.

• The health of some birds is extremely
sensitive to the fumes given off during the
self-clean cycle of any range. Move birds to
another well-ventilated room.
• DO NOT line the oven walls, oven racks, oven
bottom or any other part of the range with
aluminum foil. Doing so will stop heat
distribution, produce poor baking results and
may cause permanent damage to the oven
interior. Aluminum foil will melt to a hot oven
surface during self-clean.
CAUTION
WARNING
• Do not touch the oven during the self-clean
cycle.
• Keep children away from oven during the
self-clean cycle.
• Failure to follow these instructions can result in
burns.
