The oven door must be closed and all controls set correctly for the cycle to work properly.
After a Clean Cycle
(on some models)
You cannot set the oven for cooking until
the oven is cool enough for the door to be
unlatched.
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.

of the oven racks with the paper towel.
