Remove the insert from the pan. Carefully pour out the
grease from the pan into a proper container.
Wash and rinse the broil pan and grid in hot water
with a soap-fi lled scouring pad.
Soaking the pan will remove burned-on foods.
Both the broil pan and insert may be cleaned with a
commercial oven cleaner and are dishwasher-safe.

anywhere in the range.

Oven racks
If the racks are left in the oven during a self-cleaning cycle, their color will turn slightly blue and
the fi nish will be dull. After the self-cleaning cycle is complete and the oven has cooled, rub the
sides of the racks with wax paper or a cloth containing a small amount of oil. This will help the
racks glide more easily into their tracks.
