l Remove any pots and pans being stored in the oven.

NOTE: You can clean the broiler pan and grid in the oven if you have first removed most of the soil by hand-cleaning or a dishwasher. If most of the soil is not removed, too much smoking will occur.

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

l Remove the oven racks from the oven if you wa?t 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.)

lHeat and odors are normal during the Seif- 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.
