CLEANING YOUR OVEN
USING THE SELF CLEAN MODE:
When the oven is set to the Clean mode,the
oven temperature will reach 850°F.This high
temperature will cause food grime to burn off
and disintegrate to ash which is easily wiped
clean. WARNING:
Allow the interior
oven door glass to
cool before wiping
after a self clean
cycle as the glass will
be susceptible to
breakage if wiped
with a wet or damp
cloth immediately
after the clean cycle.
WARNING:
Do not leave the food probe in the oven during the self cleaning as the probe
will be destroyed.
