Care & Cleaning

Cleaning oven bottom (on some models)

Please note:

On some models the lower oven bake element is visible. The following cleaning instruction applies ONLY for models that have a visible lower bake element.

Oven elements may appear to have cooled after they have been turned off. The oven bake and broil elements may still be hot and burns may occur if touched before they have cooled sufficiently.

The bake element may be tilted from the front for better access to the oven bottom for cleaning. It is recommended to remove spill-overs from the oven bottom before running a self-clean cycle. Be careful not to raise the element more than 4 or 5 inches from a resting position.

On models with visible bake element only; lower bake element may be raised from the front 4-5 inches to clean oven bottom.
