l
Remove 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 in a dishwasher. If most of the soil is not
removed, too much smoking will occur. The
chrome broiler 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 Seff-
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 26.) 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
ventilated 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.

Do not use commercial oven cleaners
in your oven. Cleaners could produce

Do not leave any foil in oven during the
Self-Cleaning cycle. Foil could burn or

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.

the vent during the Self-
Cleaning cycle. Air must move freely for
best cleaning results.
