wWARNING

Burn Hazard

Do not touch the oven during the Self-Cleaning cycle.

Keep children away from oven during Self-Cleaning cycle.

Do not use commercial oven cleaners in your oven.

Failure to follow these instructions can result in burns, or illness from inhaling dangerous fumes.

BEFORE YOU START

Before you start the Self-Cleaning cycle, make sure you:

NOTE: DO NOT clean, move, or bend the gasket. You may get poor cleaning, baking, and roasting.

•Hand-clean the areas shown. They do not get hot enough during the Self-Cleaning cycle for soil to burn away. Use hot water and detergent or a soapy, steel-wool pad for cleaning.

•Do not let water, cleaner, etc., enter slots on door and frame.

•Remove the broiler pan and grid and any cookware/bakeware being stored in the oven.

•Wipe out any loose soil or grease. This will help reduce smoke during the Self-Cleaning cycle.

•Wipe up food spills containing sugar as soon as possible after the oven cools down. When sugar is heated to a high temperature in the Self- Cleaning cycle, the high temperature can cause the sugar to burn and react with the porcelain. This can cause staining and etching, pitting, or faint white spots.

•Remove the oven racks from the oven if you want them to remain shiny. You can clean the oven racks in the Self-Cleaning cycle, but they will become harder to slide. (See the “Cleaning chart” in the “Caring for Your Range” section.) If you clean the racks in the Self-Cleaning cycle, place them on the 2nd and 4th rack guides. (The guides are counted from bottom to top.)

•Heat and odors are normal during the Self- Cleaning cycle. Keep the kitchen well ventilated by opening a window or by turning on a vent hood or other kitchen vent during the cycle.

IMPORTANT: The health of some birds is extremely sensitive to the fumes given off during the Self- Cleaning cycle. Move birds to another closed and well ventilated room.

DO NOT hand-clean gasket

TIPS:

•Keep the kitchen well ventilated during the Self-Cleaning cycle to help get rid of heat, odors, and smoke.

•Clean the oven before it gets heavily soiled. Cleaning a very soiled oven takes longer and results in more smoke than usual.

•Do not block the vent during the Self-Cleaning cycle. Air must move freely for best cleaning results.

•Do not leave plastic utensils on the cooktop. They may melt.

•Remove any combustible items, such as paper napkins, from the storage drawer. This includes utensils with plastic handles that can become overheated and melt.

•Do not leave any foil in the oven during the Self-Cleaning cycle. Foil could burn or melt and damage the oven surface.

•The oven light will not work during the Self-Cleaning cycle.
