What to Expect during Cleaning

While the oven is in operation, the oven heats to temperatures 

much higher than those used in normal cooking. Sounds 

of  metal  expansion  and  contraction  are  normal.  Odor  is 

also normal as the food soil is being removed. Smoke may 

appear through the oven vent.
If heavy spillovers are not wiped up before cleaning, they 

may flame and cause more smoke and odor than usual. This 

is normal and safe  and should not cause alarm. If available, 

use an exhaust fan during the self-cleaning cycle.

SELF-CLEANING

A self-cleaning oven cleans itself with high temperatures 

(well above normal cooking temperatures) which eliminate 

soils completely or reduces them to a fine powdered ash 

you can wipe away with a damp cloth.

note

See additional cleaning information for the oven door in 

the 

general care & cleaning

 section.

note

The oven light cannot be turned ON  during a clean cycle. 

If the oven light is ON when a clean cycle is started, the 

oven control will automatically turn it OFF.

caution

To avoid possible burns use care when opening the oven 

door after the Self-Cleaning cycle. Stand to the side of 

the oven when opening the door to allow hot air or steam 

to escape.

During the Self-Cleaning cycle, the outside of the range 

can become very hot to the touch. 

do not

 leave small 

children unattended near the appliance.

The health of some birds is extremely sensitive to the 

fumes  given  off  during  the  Self-Cleaning  cycle  of  any 

range. Move birds to another well-ventilated room.

do not

 line the oven walls, racks, bottom or any other 

part  of  the  range  with 

aluminum  foil

.  Doing  so  will 

destroy heat distribution, produce poor baking results and 

cause permanent damage to the oven interior (aluminum 

foil will melt to the interior surface of the oven).

do not

 force the oven door open. This can damage the 

automatic door locking system. Use caution when opening 

the door after the Self-Cleaning cycle is completed. The 

oven may still be VERY HOT.

imPortant

Adhere to the following cleaning precautions:
•  DO NOT 

use oven cleaners or oven protective coatings 

in or around any part of the oven interior.

•  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 and will 

melt.

 

Completely remove ALL OVEN RACKS and ANY 

ACCESSORIES. If the oven racks are not removed, 

they will lose their special coating properties and 

will no longer slide in and out of the oven cavity 

effortlessly.

 

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 sugar 

or acid 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 liner outside 

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.
