a dirtier oven.

Consumer Support Troubleshooting Tips Care and Cleaning

After a Clean Cycle

You may notice some white ash in the oven. Wipe it up with a damp cloth after the oven cools.

If white spots remain, remove them with a soap- filled steel wool pad and rinse thoroughly with a vinegar and water mixture.

These deposits are usually a salt residue that cannot be removed by the clean cycle.

If the oven is not clean after one clean cycle, repeat the cycle.

You cannot set the oven for cooking or another self-clean cycle until the oven is cool enough for the door to unlock.

While the oven is self-cleaning, you can touch the CLOCK pad to display the time of day. To return to the clean countdown, touch the SELF CLEAN STD/LO pad.

If the racks become hard to slide, apply a small amount of cooking oil to a paper towel and wipe the edges of the oven racks with the paper towel.
