After a Clean Cycle

You may notice some white ash in the
oven. Wipe it up with a damp cloth after
the oven cools.

If white spots remain, remove them with a
soap-filled scouring pad and rinse thoroughly
with a vinegar and water mixture.

These deposits are usually a salt residue
that cannot be removed by the clean cycle.

If the oven is not clean after one clean
cycle, repeat the cycle.

You cannot set the oven for cooking until
the oven is cool enough for the door to
unlock.

of day. To return to the clean countdown,
touch the

pad.

If the shelves become hard to slide,
apply a small amount of vegetable oil or
cooking oil to a paper towel and wipe
the edges of the oven shelves with the
paper towel.
