day, can I still self-clean my oven?

Q.
Can I use commercial oven cleaners on any part
of my self-cleaning oven?
A.
Q.
No cleaners or coatings should be used around any
part of this oven. If you do use them and do not

absolutely clean afterwards, the residue can scar
the oven surface and damage metal parts the next
time the oven is automatically cleaned.

excess soil and reset the clean cycle.

Yes.
This is the sound of the metal heating
and cooling during both the cooking and

cleanings. Failure to wipe out excessive soil might
also cause a strong odor when cleaning.

oven shelves do not slide easily. What is
the matter?

dampen fingers with a small amount of cooking oil
and rub lightly over sides of shelf where they
contact shelf supports.

self-clean cycle. Is this normal?

Proper care and cleaning are important so your radiant cooktop will
give you efficient and satisfactory service. If soil, mineral deposits
from evaporated water spills or metal rub-off from aluminum cookware
are not removed, they will burn on the glass cooktop surface and cause
permanent discoloration.
Do
not use a cooktop cleaner on a hot cooktop. The fumes can be hazardous
to your health and can chemically attack the glass surface.
Follow these directions carefully in caring for your cooktop to assure safe
and proper maintenance.
BE SURE THAT SURFACE UNIT CONTROL KNOBS ARE TURNED
OFF AND ENTIRE COOKTOP IS COOL BEFORE CLEANING.
