Self=Cleaning

During the self-cleaning cycle,

the outside of the wall oven can become very hot to the touch. DO NOT leave a small children unattended near the appliance.

The health of some birds is

extremely sensitive to the fumes given off

during the self-clean cycle of any oven. Move birds to another well ventilated room.

DO NOT line the oven walls,

racks, bottom or any other part of the appliance with aluminum foil. Doing so will destroy heat distribution, produce poor baking results and cause permanent damage to the 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:

,,Allow the oven to cool before cleaning.

,,Wear rubber gloves when cleaning any exterior parts of the oven manually.

,,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 meat probe, searing grill, broiler pan and broiler

pan insert, all ustensils and

any aluminum

foil. Remove the

iiil

oven racks and oven rack supports from the upper oven.

 

These items cannot withstand

high cleaning

temperatures.

...........ii

,,The lower oven comes with lubricated porcelain oven racks, which can remain in the oven during the self-clean cycle. Do not clean this vegetable oil lubrication off the racks. It is important that the sides of the oven racks always have a light coating of vegetable oil. To maintain optimal rack performance, re-apply a thin layer of

vegetable oil to the sides of the rack after every self-clean cycle or when the rack becomes difficult to slide.

,,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.

If any time when setting the oven for the Self-Cleaning feature, the oven control continuously beeps and the display shows "d-O"; close the oven door (see fig. 1)

What to Expect during Cleaning

While the oven is in operation, the oven heats to temperatures much higher than those used in normal cooking. Sounds of metal expansion and contraction are normal. Odor is also normal as the food soil is being removed. Smoke may appear through the oven vent.

If heavy spillovers are not wiped up before cleaning, they may flame and cause more smoke and odor than usual. This is normal and safe

and should not cause alarm. If available, use an exhaust fan during the self-cleaning cycle.
