Prepare Oven for Self-Cleaning

A self-cleaning oven cleans itself with high temperatures (well above cooking temperatures) which eliminate soil completely or reduce it to a fine powdered ash you can wipe away with a damp cloth.

!CAUTION

To avoid risk of personal injury do not touch oven vents or areas around vents during self-cleaning. These areas can become hot enough to cause burns.

To avoid risk of damage to automatic locking system, do not try to force oven door open when “LOCK” is flashing in display.

DO NOT leave small children unattended near the appliance.

DO NOT line the oven walls, racks, bottom or any other part of the range with aluminum foil. Doing so will destroy heat distribution, produce poor baking results and cause permanent damage to the oven interior (aluminum foil will melt to the interior surface of the oven).

1.Adhere to the following cleaning precautions:

Allow the oven to cool before cleaning.

Wear rubber gloves when cleaning and while wiping up the residue after the self-clean cycle.

DO NOT use oven cleaners or oven protective coatings in or around any part of the self-cleaning oven.

DO NOT clean the oven door gasket. The oven door gasket is essential for a good seal. Care should be taken not to rub, damage or remove the gasket.

DO NOT use any cleaning materials on the oven door gasket. Doing so could cause damage.
