DO NOT clean the fiberglass seal. DO NOT move it or bend it. Poor cleaning and poor baking will result.

2.Remove the broiler pan and any pots and pans you may have stored in the oven. They can’t stand the heat.

3.Wipe out any loose soil or

grease. This will help reduce smoke during the Self-Cleaning cycle.

4.If the oven has a rotisserie, make sure the motor socket cover is closed.

5.If you want the oven racks to remain shiny, remove from the oven and clean by hand. Other- wise, put oven racks on second and fourth guides (guides are counted from bottom to top). After racks are cleaned in the Self- Cleaning cycle, they become harder to slide. See chart on page 20.

DO NOT block the vent during

the Self-Cleaning cycle. Air must move freely for best cleaning results.
