displaced on the door, it should be
replaced.

It is normal for your oven door to give
the appearance of not having a good
seat against the range. This is due to
the gasket. The location of the gasket
on the oven door maintains a good
seal and prevents any heat loss.
Utepisils should hover
be left in the oven
during a self-cleain
cycle.
The oven racks may be
cleaned during the self­
clean cycle, but will lase
their luster and bacpma hani
to slide- If you choose to
leave them in during the
cycle, wiping them down
with vegetable oil after the
cycle will help them slide
easier. - '' 7' . ^ ' 'v '

vent the room with an

odor when heating new
