We recommend venting your kitchen
with an open window or using a
ventilation fan or hood during the self-
cleaning cycle.
•
Remove the wire rack, broil pan, broil
pan insert, all cookware, and any
aluminum foil from the oven.
•
Wipe up debris from the oven bottom.
(Fig. 1)
•
The silver-colored oven racks can be
self-cleaned, but they will darken, lose
their luster, and become hard to slide.
•
Residue on the front frame of the range
and outside the gasket on the door
will need to be cleaned by hand. Clean
these areas with hot water, soap-filled
steel-wool pads, or cleansers, such as
Soft Scrub. Rinse well with clean water
and dry.
•
Do not clean the gasket. The fiberglass
material of the oven door gasket cannot
withstand abrasion. It is essential for
the gasket to remain intact. If you
notice it becoming worn or frayed, have
it replaced. (Fig. 2)
•
Make sure the oven light bulb cover is
in place and the oven light is off.
NOTE
Remove oven racks and accessories before starting the self-clean mode.
