Self-Cleaning

During the Self-Cleaning

cycle, the outside of the range can become very hot to the touch. DO NOT leave small children unattended near the appliance.

The health of some birds is extremely sensitive to the fumes given off during the Self-Cleaning cycle of any

range. Move birds to another well- ventilated room.

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).

DO NOT force the oven

door open. This can damage the automatic door locking system. Use caution when opening the door after the Self-Cleaning cycle is completed. The oven may still be VERY HOT.

Self-Cleaning Oven

A Self-Cleaning oven cleans itself with high temperatures (well above cooking temperatures) which eliminate soils completely or reduces them to a fine powdered ash you can wipe away with a damp cloth.

Adhere to the following cleaning precautions:

•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 woven material of 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.

•Remove the broiler pan and insert, all utensils and any aluminum foil. These items cannot withstand high cleaning temperatures.

•Remove oven racks. If they are not removed during the Self-Clean cycle their color will turn slightly blue and the finish will be dull. After the cycle is complete and the oven has cooled, rub the sides of the oven racks with wax paper or a cloth containing a small amount of salad oil (this will make the racks glide easier into the rack position).

•Remove any excessive spillovers in the oven cavity before starting the Self-Cleaning cycle. To clean, use hot, soapy water and a cloth. Large spillovers can cause heavy smoke or fire when subjected to high temperatures. DO NOT allow food spills with a high sugar or acid content (such as milk, tomatoes, sauerkraut, fruit juices or pie filling) to remain on the surface as they may leave a dull spot even after cleaning.

•Clean any soil from the oven frame, the door liner outside the oven door gasket and the small area at the front center of the oven bottom. These areas heat sufficiently to burn soil on. Clean with soap and water.

NOTE: Prior to setting the Self-Clean cycle, any spills remaining on the oven bottom should be removed.

Some models have an exposed Bake element in the lower oven cavity. On these models the bake element is designed to be tilted up using your hand from the front of the bake element (See illustration at left). This will allow easier access to the oven bottom for cleaning. Be careful not to raise the element more than 4 or 5 inches from the resting position.

The oven bake and broil elements may appear to have cooled after they have been turned OFF. The elements may stil be hot and burns may occur if these elements are touched before they have cooled sufficiently.
