clean utensils orany other objects in the oven during
a self-clean cycle, nf oven racks are Deft in the

lose their luster and become hard to shale. If

polish the edges of the racks with steel wool and
apply a small amount of vegetable oil to the rack
edges after the self-clean cycle. This will make the
racks easier to slide.
Soil on the oven front frame, under the front edge of
the cooktop (does not apply to built-in ovens), the
door liner outside the door seal and the front edge of
the oven cavity (about 1" into the oven) will not be

to abrasion. An intact and well fitting oven door seal
is essential for energy efficient oven operation and
good baking results. If you noticethe seal becoming
worn, frayed or damaged in any way or if it has
become displaced on the door, you should replace
