l
Remove any pots and pans
being stored
in the oven.
NOTE:
You can clean the broiler pan
and grid in the oven if you have first
removed most of the soil by hand-cleaning
or in a dishwasher. If most of the soil is not
removed, too much smoking will occur.
l
Wipe out any loose sol1 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 33.) 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.
Personal Injury and
Product Damage Hazard
l
Do not touch the oven during the
Self-Cleaning cycle. It could burn you.
l
Do not use commercial oven cleaners
in your oven. Cleaners could produce
hazardous fumes or damage the

l
Do not leave any foil in the oven during
the Self-Cleaning cycle. Foil could burn
or melt and damage the oven surface.
NOTES:
l
Do not block
the vent during the
Self-Cleaning cycle. Air must move freely

leave plastic utensils near the
vent. They may melt.
l
Leave oven light
off during the Self-
Cleaning cycle to prolong bulb life.
