Maintaining your appliance Self-cleaning (Lower oven only) This self-cleaning oven uses high temperatures (well above cooking temperatures) to burn off leftover grease and residue completely or reduce them to a finely powdered ash that you can wipe away with a damp cloth. CAUTION • During the self-cleaning cycle, the outside of the oven will become very hot to the touch. Do not leave small children unattended near the appliance. • Some birds are extremely sensitive to the fumes given off during the selfcleaning cycle of any oven. Move birds to another well-ventilated room. • Do not line the oven walls, racks, bottom, or any other part of the oven with aluminum foil. Doing so will result in poor heat distribution, poor baking results, and cause permanent damage to the oven interior. Aluminum foil will melt and adhere to the interior surface of the oven. • The oven door locks during self-cleaning. Do not force the oven door open. This can damage the automatic door locking system. Use care when opening the oven door after the self-cleaning cycle is complete. 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. Before a self-cleaning cycle Fig. 1 Fig. 2 • • • • Don't hand clean the oven door • gasket. You may hand clean the door. • • We recommend venting your kitchen with an open window or using a ventilation fan or hood during the selfcleaning 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 oven 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 cover is in place and the oven light is off. NOTE Remove oven racks and accessories before starting the self-clean mode.
