gets too dirty. Wipe up excess food residue.
3. Do not use the cleaning cycle if the oven light
cover is not properly in place.

To avoid the risk of personal injury do not
touch the oven vents or areas around the
vents during self-cleaning. These areas
can become hot enough to cause burns.
Do not try to force the door lock lever
open. Forcing the lock lever can cause
damage to the locking mechanism.
