y
DO NOT leave small children unattended near the ap-
pliance.
During the self cleaning cycle, the outside of
the range can become very hot to the touch.
y
If you have a pet bird, move it to another well-venti-
lated room.
Some birds are extremely sensitive to the
fumes given off during the self cleaning cycle of any
range.
y
DO NOT wrap the oven walls, racks, bottom or any
other part of the range with aluminum foil or any other
material.
Doing so will destroy the heat distribution,
produce poor baking results, and cause permanent
damage to the interior of the oven (aluminum foil will
melt to the interior surface of the oven).
y
DO NOT force the door open.
This can cause damage
to the automatic door locking system. 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. The oven may still be
very hot.
y
Do not touch the oven broil element until it has com-
pletely cooled.
CAUTION
SELF CLEAN (Upper & Lower Oven)
The SELF CLEAN cycle uses above normal cooking tempera-
tures to clean the oven cavity. You may see some smoke and
smell an odor the first few times the oven is cleaned. This is
normal and will lessen in time. Smoke may also occur if the
oven is heavily soiled. During self clean, the kitchen should
be well ventilated to minimize the odors from cleaning. The
upper and lower oven SELF CLEAN cannot be operated
simultaneously.
