Self-Clean Oven
Wipe up excess grease or spillovers from the oven bottom to
prevent excessive smoking and flare-ups during the clean
cycle. For ease of cleaning, the heating element can be lifted
slightly (1 to 11/2inches).
Wipe up sugary and acid spillovers such as sweet potatoes,
tomato or milk-based sauces. Porcelain enamel is acid re-
sistant, not acid proof. The porcelain finish may discolor if
acid spills are not wiped up prior to a self-clean cycle.
