Clean top, sides and outside front of oven door with
soap and water. Do not use abrasives or oven cleaners.

Do not rub or clean the door gasket (B)—the
fiberglass material of the gasket has an extremely low
resistance to abrasion. An intact and well-fitting oven

the
oven door that is outside the

Clean Time to anywhere between 2 and 4 hours,
depending on how dirty the oven is. The self-clean
