NOTES:
Keep the kitchen well ventilated during
the Self-Cleaning cycle to help get rid of
heat, odors, and smoke.
Clean the oven before it gets heavily
soiled. Cleaning a very soiled oven takes
longer and results in more smoke than
usual.
Do not block the vent during the Self-
Cleaning cycle. Air must move freely for
best cleaning results.
