Before a Clean Cycle

The range must be completely cool in order to set the se~-clean cycle.

1.Remove the broiler pan, broiler grid, all cookware and any aluminum foil from the oven—they can’t withstand the high cleaning temperatures.

NOTE: The oven shelves may be cleaned in

the seE-cleaning oven. However, they will darken, lose their luster and become hard to slide. Wipe the shelf supports with cooking oil after self-cleaning to make shelves slide more easily.

2.Wipe up heavy soil on the oven bottom. If you use soap, rinse thoroughly before self-cleaning to prevent staining.

NOTE: Do not clean the bake element or broil element. Any soil will burn off when the elements are heated. The bake element can be lifted gently to clean the oven floor. If spillovers, residue or ash accumulate around the bake element, gently wipe around the element with warm water.

3.Clean spatters or soil on the oven front frame and the oven door outside the gasket with a dampened cloth. The oven front frame and the oven door outside the gasket do not get cleaned by the self-clean cycle.

On these areas, use detergent and hot water or a soap-filled steel wool pad. Rinse well with a vinegar and water solution. This will help prevent a brown residue from forming when the oven is heated. Buff these areas with a dry cloth. Do not clean the gasket. Never use a commercial oven cleaner in or around the self-cleaning oven. Clean the top, sides and outside front of the oven door with soap and water. Do not use abrasives or oven cleaners.

Make sure the oven light bulb cover is in place.

Do not rub or clean the door gasket— the fiberglass material of the gasket has an extremely low resistance to abrasion. An intact and well-fitting oven door gasket is essential for energy-efficient oven operation and good baking results. If you notice the gasket becoming worn, frayed or damaged in any way or if it has become displaced on the door, you should have it replaced.

Do not let water run down through openings in the top of the door. To help prevent water from getting in these slots when cleaning, open the door as far as it will go.

4.Close the oven door and make sure the oven light is off. If the oven light is not turned off, the life of the bulb will be shortened or it may bum out immediately.

Do not use commercial oven cleaners or oven protectors in or near the se~-claning oven. A combination of any of these products plus the high clean-cycle temperamre may damage the porcelain finish of the oven.
