OVF_2qC, LPJ

Burn Hazard

Do not touch the oven during the

Self-Cleaning cycle.

Keep children away from oven during

Self-Cleaning cycle.

Do not use commercial oven cleaners in

your oven.

Failure to follow these instructions can result in

burns, or illness from inhaling dangerous fumes.

IMPORTANT: The health of some birds is extremely sensitive to the fumes given off during the Self-Cleaning cycle. Exposure to

the fumes may result in death to certain birds.Always move birds to another closed and well ventilated room.

Self-clean the oven before it is heavily soiled. Heavy soil results in longer cleaning and more smoke.

Keep the kitchen well-ventilated during the Self-Cleaningcycle to help get rid of heat, odors, and smoke.

Do not block the oven vent(s) dudng the Self-Cleaning cycle. Air must be able to move freely. See "Oven Vent(s)" section.

Prepare Oven:

aRemove the broiler pan, gdd, cookware and bakeware and, on some models, the temperature probe from the oven.

=Remove any foil from the oven because it may burn or melt, damaging the oven.

Remove oven racks to keep them shiny and easy to slide. If leaving in, place them on rack positions 2, 3 or 4. For diagram, see "Positioning Racks and Bakeware". Racks will discolor and become harder to slide. See "Cleaning" for more information.

Hand clean inside door edge and the 1V2in. (3.8 cm) area around the inside oven cavity frame, being careful not to move or bend the gasket. This area does not get hot enough during self-cleaning to remove soil. Do not let water, cleaner, etc. enter slots on door frame. Use a damp cloth to clean this area.

Wipe out any loose soil to reduce smoke and avoid damage. At high temperatures, foods react with porcelain. Staining, etching, pitting or faint white spots can result. This will not affect cooking performance.
