of metal expansion and contraction are normal. Odor is
also normal as the food soil is being removed. Smoke may
appear through the oven vent.

See additional cleaning information for the oven door in
the General Care & Cleaning section.
CAUTION
To avoid possible burns use care when opening the
oven door after the Self-Cleaning cycle. Stand to the
side of the oven when opening the door to allow hot air
or steam to escape.
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.
IMPORTANT
Adhere to the following cleaning precautions:
• DO NOT use oven cleaners or oven protective
coatings in or around any part of the oven interior.
• 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 and will melt.
• Completely remove ALL OVEN RACKS and
ANY ACCESSORIES. If the oven racks are not
removed, they will lose their special coating
properties and will no longer slide in and out
of the oven cavity effortlessly.
• 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rewhen

spillswithahighsugaroracidcontent(suchasmilk,
tomatoes,sauerkraut,fruitjuicesorpielling)to
remain on the surface as they may leave a dull spot
even after cleaning.
