SELF-CLEANING

A self-cleaning oven uses high temperatures (well above cooking temperatures) to burn off leftover grease and residue completely or reduce them to a fi nely powdered ash that you can wipe away with a damp cloth.

•

During the self-cleaning cycle, the outside of the range can become very hot to touch.

CAUTION

Do not leave small children unattended near the appliance.

•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 line the oven walls, racks, bottom or any other part of the range with aluminum foil. Doing so will result in poor heat distribution, produce poor baking results and cause permanent damage to the oven interior (aluminum foil will melt to the interior surface of the oven).

•Do not force the oven door open. This can damage the automatic door locking system. Use care when opening the oven door after the self-cleaning cycle is complete. Stand to the side of the oven when opening the door to allow hot air or steam to escape. The oven may still be VERy HOT.

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

• Remove the wire rack, broil pan, broil pan insert, all cookware and any aluminum foil from the oven.

• Wipe up debris from the oven bottom. (Fig. 1)

•The silver-colored oven racks can be self-cleaned, but they will darken, lose their luster and become hard to slide.

•Residue on the front frame of the range and outside the gasket on the door will need to be cleaned by hand. Clean these areas with hot water, soap-fi lled steel-wool pads or cleansers such as Soft Scrub. Rinse well with clean water and dry.

•Do not clean the gasket. The fi berglass material of the oven door gasket cannot withstand abrasion. It is essential for the gasket to remain intact. If you notice it becoming worn or frayed, replace it. (Fig. 2)

•Make sure the oven light bulb cover is in place and the oven light is off.

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.
