The self-cleaning feature operates the oven at temperatures high enough to burn away food soils in the
oven. Follow these instructions for safe operation.
Ŷ Do not touch oven surfaces during self-clean
operation. Keep children away from the oven
during self-cleaning. Failure to follow these
instructions may cause burns.
Ŷ Before operating the self-clean cycle, remove pans,
shiny metal oven racks and other utensils from the
oven. Only gray porcelain-coated oven racks may
be left in the oven. Do not use self-clean to clean
other parts, such as drip pans or bowls.
Ŷ Before operating the self-clean cycle, wipe
grease and food soils from the oven. Excessive
amount of grease may ignite leading to smoke
damage to your home.
Ŷ If the self-cleaning mode malfunctions, turn the
oven off and disconnect the power supply. Have
it serviced by a qualified technician.
Ŷ Do not clean the door gasket. The door gasket is
essential for a good seal. Care should be taken
not to rub, damage or move the gasket.
Ŷ Do not use oven cleaners. No commercial oven
cleaner or oven liner protective coating of any kind
should be used in or around any part of the oven.
Ŷ The purpose of the warming drawer is to hold hot
cooked foods at serving temperature. Bacteria
will grow in food while it is below 140°F. Do not
put cold food in warming drawer. Do not heat
food for more than 2 hours. Failure to follow
these instructions may result in foodborne illness.
Ŷ Do not leave paper products, plastics, canned
food or combustible materials in the drawer. They
may ignite.
Ŷ Do not touch the heating element or the interior
surface of the drawer. These surfaces may be
hot enough to cause burns.
Ŷ Use care when opening the drawer. Open the
drawer a crack and let hot air or steam escape
before removing or replacing food. Hot air or
steam that escapes can cause burns to hands,
face and/or eyes.
Ŷ Do not use aluminum foil to line the lower
drawer. The foil will trap heat below, and upset
the performance of the oven. Foil can melt
and permanently damage the drawer bottom.
Damage from improper use of aluminum foil is
not covered by the product warranty.
