Oven Cleaning
During the self-cleaning
cycle, the outside of the range can I
become very hot to the touch. DO I
NOT leave small children unattended
near the app ance.
DO NOT line the oven
walls, racks, bottom or any other
part of the range with aluminum
foil. Doing so will destroy heat
distribution, produce poor baking
results and cause permanent
damage to the oven interior
(aluminum foil will melt to the
interior surface of the oven).

Self-Cleaning Oven
A self-cleaning oven cleans itself with high temperatures (well above
cooking temperatures) which eliminate soilcompletely or reduce it to a fine
powdered ash you can wipe away with a damp cloth.
1. Adhere to the following cleaning precautions:
Allow the oven to cool before precleaning. I"11
Wear rubber gloves when precleaning and while wiping up the residue Z
after the self-clean cycle. (.,lr_.
DO NOT use oven cleaners or oven protective coatings in or around any --
part of the self-cleaning oven.
DO NOT clean the oven door gasket. The woven material of the oven -t"
door gasket is essential for a good seal. Care should he taken not to
rub, damage or remove the gasket.
• DO NOT use any cleaning materials on the oven door gasket. Doing so
could cause damage.
2. Remove the broiler pan and insert, all utensils and any aluminum
foil. These items cannot withstand high cleaning temperatures.
3. Oven racks may be left in the oven or may be removed. If they go
through the clean cycle their color will turn slightly blue and the finish
will be dull. After the 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 baby oil or salad oil (this will make the racks glide easier into
the rack position).
4. Remove any excess spillovers in the oven cavity before starting the self-
cleaning cycle. To clean, use hot, soapy water and a cloth. Large
spillovers can cause heavy smoke or fire when subjected to high
temperatures. DO NOT allow food spills with a high sugar or acid
content (such as milk, tomatoes, sauerkraut, fruit juices or pie filling) to
remain on the surface as they may cause a dull spot even after cleaning.
5. Clean any soil from the oven frame, the door liner outside the oven
door gasket and the small area at the front center of the oven bottom.
These areas heat sufficiently to burn soil on. Clean with soap and water.
Stopping or Interrupting a Self-Cleaning Cycle
If it becomes necessary to stop or interrupt a self-cleaning cycle due to
excessive smoke or fire:
1. Push CLEAR.
2. Once the oven has cooled down for about 1 HOURand the 'LOCK' light
has gone out, the oven door can be opened.
3. Correct the condition which caused the smoking,
4. Restart the self-clean cycle once all conditions have been corrected.
DO NOT force the oven door open. This can damage the
automatic door locking system. Use caution when opening the door after
the self-cleaning cycle is completed. The oven may still be VERY HOT.
