Using the Self-Cleaning Cycle

The self-cleaning cycle uses very high heat to burn away soil, Before you start, make sure you understand exactly how to use the cycle safely.

Before You Start

1. Clean the shaded areas by hand. They do not get hot enough dur- ing the Self-Clean cycle for soil to burn away. Use hot water and detergent or a soapy steel-wool pad on...

l the frame around the oven,

l the inside of the door, especially the part outside the oven seal.

DO NOT clean the flberglass seal. DO NOT move It or bend If. Poor cleaning and poor baklng will result.

2.Remove the broiler pan and any pots or pans you may have stored in the oven. They can’t stand the high heat.

3.Wipe out any loose soil or grease. This will help reduce smoke dur- ingthecleaningcycle.

4.If your oven has a rotisserie, make sure the motor socket cover is closed.

5.Put oven racks on the second

and fourth guides. During the Self-

Cleaning Cycle they will darken and become harder to slide. See tips on page22. If you want the oven racks to remain shiny, clean them by hand.
