l Remove any pots and pans being stored in the oven.

NOTE: You can clean the broiler pan (with grid) in the oven if you have first removed most of the soil by hand-cleaning or a dishwasher. If most of the soil is not removed, too much smoking will occur.

l Wipe out any loose soil or grease. This will help reduce smoke during the cleaning cycle.

l 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 page 31.) If you clean racks in the Self-Cleaning cycle, place them on the 2nd and 4th rack guides. (Guides are counted from bottom to top.)

l 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.

NOTES:

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

l Do not leave plastic utensils near the vent. They may melt.

l This oven is equipped with an internal cooling fan. A fan sound will be heard during a normal Self-Cleaning cycle. This fan comes on automatically to keep the electronic oven control sufficiently cooled. Canceling the oven will not turn off this fan. It will continue running until the electronic oven control has sufficiently cooled. The fan will then automatically turn off.
