Quick Reminder:
1.
Latch the door.
2. Press the AUTO SELF CLEAN pad.
3. Press the INCREASE or DECREASE pad
to
set the Clean Time.
Before a Clean Cycle
We recommend venting with an open window or
using a ventilation fan or hood during the first
self-
clean cycle.
The range must be completely cool in order to set
the self-clean cycle. You may have to allow the oven
to cool before you can slide the door latch.
1. Remove all cookware and any aluminum foil from
the oven—they cannot withstand the high cleaning
temperatures.
NOTE: The oven shelves (including the offset
shel~ and the roasting rack may be cleaned in
the self-cleaning oven. However, they will darken,
lose their luster and become hard to slide.
2. To avoid heavy smoke
jn
the kitchen during
self-
cleaning, wipe up heavy soil on the oven bottom.
(If you use soap, rinse thoroughly before
self-
cleaning to prevent staining.) The enamel grid and
broiler pan may be cleaned in the self-clean oven.
However.
to
help prevent heavy smoke caused by
self-cleaning the greasy soil in the pan, you must
first clean off the excess grease.

3. Clean spatters or spills on the oven front frame,
and the oven door outside the gasket with a
dampened cloth. The oven front frame and the
oven door outside the gasket do not get cleaned by
the self-clean cycle. On these areas use detergent
and hot water or a soap-filled steel wool pad. Rinse
well with a vinegar and water solution. This will
help prevent a brown residue from forming when
the oven is heated. Buff these areas with a dry
cloth. Do not clean the gasket.
Clean the top, sides and outside front of the oven
door with soap and water. Do not use abrasives or
oven cleaners.
Make sure the oven light bulb cover is in place.
Do not rub or clean the door
gasket—
the fiberglass material of the gasket has an
extremely low resistance to abrasion. An intact
and well-fitting oven door gasket is essential for
energy-efficient oven operation and good baking
results. If you notice the gasket becoming worn,
frayed or damaged in any way or if it has become
displaced on the door, you should have it replaced.
4. Close the door and make sure the oven light is
off. If the oven light is not turned off, the life
of the bulb will be shortened or it may burn out
immediately.
Do not use commercial oven cleaners or oven
protectors in or near the self-cleaning oven.
A combination of any of these products plus the high
clean cycle temperatures may damage the porcelain
finish of the oven.
