CARE AND CLEANING

ENGLISH

Before Starting SELF CLEAN

 Remove the oven racks, broiler pan, broiler grid, all

cookware, aluminum foil or any other material from the
oven.

 The kitchen should be well ventilated to minimize the

odors from cleaning.

 If running a self clean in one of the ovens, the other

oven can not be used.

 Wipe any heavy spillovers on the bottom of the oven.

 Make sure that the oven light bulb cover is in place and

the oven light is off.

 The oven light cannot be turned on during a self clean

cycle. The oven light cannot be turned on until the oven
temperature has cooled below 500˚F (260˚C) after a self
clean cycle is complete.

 Fine lines may appear in the porcelain because it went

through heating and cooling. This is normal and will not
affect performance.

(example: set for 3:00 AM/PM)

CAUTION

DO NOT

force the oven door open when

The oven door will remained locked until the oven tem-
perature has cooled. Forcing the door open will damage
the door.

NOTE

 Clean the frame of the oven and door with hot soapy

water. Rinse well.

 Do not clean the oven door gasket. The oven door

gasket is made of a woven material that is essential
for a good seal. Care should be taken not to rub, dam-
age, or remove this gasket.

 Do not open the oven door until the self clean cycle is

complete.

 The oven door can become extremely hot. Do not

touch the oven door until it has cooled down.

 You may see some smoke and smell an odor the first

few times the oven is cleaned. This is normal.

 As the oven heats, you may hear sounds of metal

parts expanding and contracting. This is normal.

 A self clean cycle cannot be started if the Oven Lock-

out feature is active.

After Self Clean

 You may notice some white ash in the oven. Wipe it off

with a damp cloth after the oven cools.

 If the oven is not clean after one clean cycle, repeat the

clean cycle.

 If the oven racks were left in the oven and do not

slide smoothly after a clean cycle, wipe racks and rack
supports with a small amount of vegetable oil to make
them glide easier.
