IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

Save these instructions for future reference.

IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR SELF 
CLEANING OVENS

Do not clean the oven door gasket. The door 
gasket is essential for a good seal. Care should 
be taken not to rub, damage, or move the gasket.

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 
appliance.

Use the self clean cycle to clean only the parts 
listed in this manual. 

Before using self clean, remove the broiler pan, 
any food, utensils, and cookware from the oven, 
storage drawer or warming drawer (if equipped). 
Remove oven racks unless otherwise instructed.

Some birds are extremely sensitive to the fumes 
given off during the self clean cycle of any oven. 
Move birds to another well-ventilated room.

IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR SERVICE 
AND MAINTENANCE

Do not repair or replace any part of the appliance 
unless specifically recommended in the manuals. 
All other servicing should be done only by a 
qualified technician. This reduces the risk of 
personal injury and damage to the appliance.

Always contact your dealer, distributor, service 
agent, or manufacturer about problems or condi-
tions you do not understand. 

Ask your dealer to recommend a qualified techni-
cian and an authorized repair service. Know how 
to disconnect the power to the appliance at the 
circuit breaker or fuse box in case of an emer-
gency.

Remove the oven door from any unused oven if it 
is to be stored or discarded.

Do not touch a hot oven light bulb with a damp 
cloth. Doing so could cause the bulb to break. 
Handle halogen lights (if equipped) with paper 
towels or soft gloves. Disconnect the appliance or 
shut off the power to the appliance before 
removing and replacing the bulb.
