to
the correct time of
day, can I still self-clean my oven?

Q. Can
I
use commercial oven cleaners on any part
of my self-cleaning oven?
A.
No
cleaners
or
coatings should be used around
any part of this oven. If you do use them and do
not thoroughly rinse the oven with water, wiping it
absolutely clean afterwards, the residue can scar
the oven surface and damage metal parts the next
time the oven is automatically cleaned.

What should I do if excessive smoking occurs
during cleaning?
A.
This is caused by excessive soil. Press the

room
of smoke. Wait until the oven has cooled and
the word “LOCK” is off in the display. Wipe up
the excess soil and reset the clean cycle.

during cleaning normal?

This is the sound of the metal heating
~
cooling during both the cooking and
cleaning

also cause a strong odor when cleaning.
Q. What causes the hair-like lines on the enameled
surface of my oven?
A.
This is a normal condition, resulting from heating
and cooling during cleaning. These lines do not
affect how your oven performs.
Q. Why do I have ash
left
in my oven after
cleaning?
A.

of
soil will leave a deposit which
is ash. It can be removed with a damp sponge
or cloth.
Q. My oven shelves do not
slide
easily. What is
the matter?
A. After many cleanings, oven shelves may become

slide more easily, after each self-cleaning function
dampen fingers with a small amount of cooking oil
and rub lightly over sides of shelf where they
contact shelf supports.

the
self-clean cycle. Is this normal?
