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 during the Self-Cleaning 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.

l the first 2-3 inches of oven near the door.

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

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

3.Wipe out any loose soil or grease. This will help reduce smoke during the cleaning cycle.

4. If you want the oven racks to remaln shiny, remove from the oven and clean them by hand.

Otherwise, put oven racks on sec- ond and fourth guides (guides are counted from bottom to top). Durlng the Self-Cleaning Cycle they become harder to slide. See tips on page 18.
