l
Remove the broiler pan grid and any pots
and pans being stored in the oven.
NOTE: You can clean the broiler pan (without
grid) in the oven if you have first removed
most of the soil by hand-cleaning or a dish-
washer. If most of the soil is not removed, too
much smoking will occur. The chrome broiler
pan grid will discolor if cleaned in the Self-
Cleaning cycle.
l
Wipe out any loose soil or grease. This will
help reduce smoke during the cleaning cycle.
l
Remove the oven racks from the oven if
you want them to remain shiny. You can
clean the oven racks in the Self-Cleaning
cycle, but they will become harder to slide.
(See page 28.) If you clean racks in the Self-
Cleaning cycle, place them on the 2nd and
4th rack guides. (Guides are counted from
bottom to top.)
l
Heat and odors are normal during the Self-
Cleaning cycle. Keep the kitchen well venti-
lated by opening a window or by turning on a
vent hood or other kitchen vent during the
cycle.

Personal Injury and
Product Damage Hazard
l
Do not touch the oven during the Self-
, Cleaning cycle. It could burn you.
l
Do not use commercial oven cleaners in
your oven. Cleaners could produce
hazardous fumes or damage the porce-
lain finish.
l
Do not leave foil in the oven during the
Self-Cleaning cycle. Foil could burn or
melt and damage the oven surface.
NOTE: Do not force the Lock Lever. You
could bend or break it. The lever is designed
to stay locked until the oven is cool enough
to safely open. Wait until it moves freely.
Do not block the vent during the Self-
Cleaning cycle. Air must move freely for best
cleaning results.
Do not leave plastic utensils near the vent.
They may melt.
3. Set the Oven Selector and Oven Tem-
perature Control Knob to CLEAN. The
OVEN HEATING Indicator Light will
come on.
