cannot withstand the high cleaning temperatures. (Oven shelves may be left in oven. NOTE: Shelves will discolor after the self-clean cycle.)

Step 2: Wipe up heavy soil on the oven bottom,

A. Oven Front Frame

B. Oven Door Gasket

C. Oven Light

Step 3: Clean spatters or spills on the oven front frame

(A)and only that area on the oven door that is outside the gasket (B). Do not clean the gasket. Use detergent and hot water with a soap-filled steel wool pad, then rinse well with a vinegar and water mixture. This will help prevent a brown residue from forming when the oven is heated. Buff these areas with a dry cloth. Never use a commercial oven cleaner in or around the self- cleaning oven.

●Clean top, sides and outside front of oven door with soap and water. Do not use abrasives or oven cleaners.

●Do not rub or clean the door gasket (B)—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.

Step 4: Close and latch the door. Make sure the oven light (C) is off.

Oven shelves may be cleaned in the self-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.

Caution: Drip pans should never be cleaned in the self-cleaning oven.

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.

Important

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

The self-clean cycle will automatically begin within a few seconds after the word “CLEAN” is displayed and the word “ON” appears on the display. When the oven heats to a high temperature, the word “LOCK” will be displayed and, a short time later, the door latch handle will be locked in position. It will not be possible to open the oven door until the temperature drops below the lock temperature.

Step 5: When the LOCK light is off, slide the latch handle to the left as far as it will go and open the door.
