Kenmore 790.9031 manual Read before starting Select Clean, VERY HOT and, Any Aluminum Foil

Select Clean

A self-cleaning oven cleans itself with high temperatures (well above normal cooking temperatures) which eliminate soils completely or reduces them to a fine powdered ash you can wipe away aftwerwards with a damp cloth.

The Select Clean function allows you to select 3 different cleaning times from 2, 3 or 4 hours. A 3-hour cleaning time is best used for normal cleaning; 2-hour time for light soils and a 4-hour clean time for heavier stubborn soils.

Read before starting Select Clean

Be sure to read all the following caution and important

statements BEFORE starting a self-clean cycle:

!I_ DO NOT leave small children unattended

near the appliance. During the self-cleaning cycle, the

outside of the range can become very hot to touch and can

Cause burns.

!I_ DO NOT llne the oven walls, racks, bottom

or any other part of the range with aluminum foil. Doing

so will destroy heat distribution, produce poor baking

results and cause permanent damage to the oven interion Aluminum foil will melt to the interior of the oven.

The health of some birds is extremely sensitive to the fumes given off during the self-cleaning cycle of any range. Move birds to another well-ventilated room.

DO NOT force the oven door open. This can

damage the automatic door locking system.

		Use caution when opening the oven door
after	self-cleaning.		The	oven		may	still be	VERY HOT and
can cause		burns.	To avoid		possible		burns	stand	to	the	side
of the	oven	when	opening		the	oven	door	to allow		hot	air or
steam	to escape.
important		notes:
* Completely		remove		ALL	OVEN		RACKS	and	ANY

ACCESSORIES FROM OVEN CAVITY to avoid damage

to oven racks. If the oven racks are not removed they may discolon

*Remove ALL items from the oven and cooktop including

cookware,	utensils	and	ANY ALUMINUM FOIL.
Aluminum	foil will	not	withstand	high temperatures	from
a self-clean	cycle	and	will melt.

" DO NOT use oven cleaners or oven protective coatings in or around any part of the oven interior.

°Clean any soil from the oven frame, the door liner outside the oven door gasket and the small area at the front center of the oven bottom (See Fig. 1). These areas

heat sufficiently to burn soil on. Clean using soap and

water prior to starting Select Clean (See Fig. 1).

*Remove any excessive spillovers. Any spills on the oven

bottom should be wiped-up and removed before starting

a self-clean cycle. To clean, use hot, soapy water and a

cloth. Large spillovers can cause heavy smoke or fire

when subjected to high temperatures. DO NOT allow food spills with a high sugar or acid content (such as

milk, tomatoes, sauerkraut, fruit juices or pie filling) to remain on the surface as they may leave a dull spot even after cleaning.

°DO NOT clean the oven door gasket (See Fig. 1). The

woven material of the oven door gasket is essential for a

good seal. Care should be taken not to rub, damage or

remove the gasket. DO NOT use any cleaning materials on the oven door gasket. Doing so could cause damage to the door gasket.
