The oven door must be closed and all controls set correctly for the cycle to work properly.

After a Clean Cycle
You cannot set the oven for cooking until
the oven is cool enough for the door to be
unlatched.
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 until

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