Before a Clean Cycle
For the first self-clean cycle, we recommend
venting your kitchen with an open window or
using a ventilation fan or hood.
Remove any broiler pan, broiler grid, all
cookware, probe and any aluminum foil from
the oven—they cannot withstand the high
cleaning temperatures.
NOTE:
■ If your oven is equipped with nickel oven
shelves, remove them before you begin the
self-clean cycle.
■ If your oven is equipped with gray
porcelain-coated oven shelves, they may be
left in the oven during the self-clean cycle.
Soil on the front frame of the range and
outside the gasket on the front frame will
need to be cleaned by hand. Clean these
areas with hot water, soap-filled scouring
pads or cleansers such as Soft Scrub«: Rinse
well with clean water and dry. Wipe off the
flat inner door and glass with soapy water
and sponge.

some models,

Do not clean the gasket. The fiberglass
material of the front frame gasket cannot
withstand abrasion. It is essential for the
gasket to remain intact. If you notice it
becoming worn or frayed, replace it.
Wipe up any heavy spillovers on the oven
bottom.
Make sure the oven light bulb cover is in place
and the oven light is off.
IMPORTANT: The health of some birds is
extremely sensitive to the fumes given off
