Self-Cleaning Oven

A Self-Cleaning oven cleans itself with high temperatures (well above cooking
temperatures) which eliminate soils completely or reduces them to a fine
powdered ash you can wipe away with a damp cloth.

Adhere to the following cleaning precautions:

DO NOT use oven cleaners or oven protective coatings in or around any
part of the Self-Cleaning oven.

DO NOT clean the oven door gasket. The woven material of the oven door

gasket is essential for a good seal. Care should be taken not to rub,
damage or remove the gasket.

DO NOT use any cleaning materials on the oven door gasket. Doing so

could cause damage.

Remove the broiler pan and insert, all utensils and any aluminum

foil. These items cannot withstand high cleaning temperatures.

Porcelain Oven racks do not have to be removed. After the cycle is

complete and the oven has cooled, rub the sides of the oven racks with
wax paper or a cloth containing a small amount of vegetable oil (this will

make the racks glide easier into the rack position).

Remove any excessive spillovers in the oven cavity before starting the
Self-Cleaning cycle. To clean, use hot, soapy water and a cloth. Large

spillovers can cause heavy smoke or fire when subjected to high
temperatures.

DO NOT allow food spills with a high sugaroracid content

(such as milk, tomatoes, sauerkraut, fruit juices or pie filling) to remain on

the surface as they may leave a dull spot even after cleaning.

Clean any soil from the oven frame, the door lineroutside the oven door

gasket and the small area at the front center of the oven bottom. These
areas heat sufficiently to burn soil on. Clean with soap and water.

NOTES: Prior to setting the Self-Clean cycle, any spills remaining on the oven
bottom should be removed.

See additional cleaning information for the oven door in the

General Care &

Cleaning section.
