OPERATING THE SELF-CLEANING OVEN

Quick Reminder:

1.Latch the door.

2.Turn the Oven Temperature knob to CLEAN.

Before a Clean Cycle

We recommend venting with an open window or using a ventilation fan or hood during the first self- cleaning cycle.

1.Remove the broiler pan, broiler rack, all cookware and any aluminum foil from the oven—they cannot withstand the high cleaning temperatures.

NOTE: The oven shelves may be left in oven. They will discolor and become hard to slide after the self-clean cycle.

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

3.Clean spatters or spills on oven front frame, and oven door outside gasket with a dampened cloth. Polish with a dry cloth. Do not clean gasket.

Do not allow water to run down through openings in top of door.

Clean top, sides and outside front of 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 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.

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.

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 cause the bulb to burn out immediately.

The oven shelves may be cleaned in the self- cleaning oven. However, they will darken, lose their luster and become hard to slide.

Do not use commercial oven cleaners or oven protectors in or near the self-cleaning oven.

A combination of any of these products plus the high clean cycle temperatures may damage the porcelain finish of the oven.

How to Set the Oven for Cleaning

Quick Reminder:

1.Latch the door.

2.Turn the Oven Temperature knob to CLEAN.

If the oven is too hot and you start to set a clean cycle, you will not be able to slide the latch. Allow additional time for cooling before you try to set the cycle.

1.Follow directions to prepare the oven for cleaning.

2.Slide the latch handle to the right as far as it will go.

Never force the latch handle. Forcing the handle will damage the door lock mechanism.

3.Turn the Oven Temperature knob to CLEAN.

To reach the full cleaning temperature, the Oven Temperature knob must be turned all the way to the stop in the CLEAN section of the knob.

The clean light will be on.

The clean cycle time is just over 3 hours.
