Self-Clean Oven
The self-clean oven uses temperatures above
normal cooking temperatures to automatically
clean the entire oven. The separate clean cycle
eliminates soil completely or reduces it to a gray
ash which is easily wiped up with a damp cloth
when the cycle is complete and the oven has
cooled.
It is better to clean the oven regularly rather than
to wait until there is a heavy build-up of soil in the
oven.
It is normal for the cooktop of the range to become
hot during a clean cycle. Therefore, during a clean
cycle, avoid touching the cooktop area. Avoid
contact with the oven door and window as these
areas also become warm during a self clean cycle.
Preparing for the Self-Clean Cycle
l. Remove oven racks and any pans, utensils or
the broiler pan from the oven, The oven racks
should be washed by hand. If left in the oven
during the self-clean cycle, the racks will
become permanently discolored and may not
slide easily after a clean cycle.
2. Clean the oven frame, door frame and around
the oven vent with a non-abrasive cleaning
agent such as Bon ,Mni. These areas are not
exposed to cleaning temperatures and should
be cleaned to prevent soil from baking on during
the clean cycle.
3, Wipe up any excess grease or spillovers from the
oven bottom to prevent excessive snloking and
flare-ups during the clean cycle.
4, Wipe up acid spillovers such as lemon juice,
tomato sauce or milk-based sauces and sugary
spillovers. Porcelain enamel is acid resistant,
not acid proof. The porcelain finish may discolor
if acid spills are not wiped up immediately.
5. Do not use oven cleaners or oven liner
protective coatings of any kind on the
self-clean oven finish or around any part of
the oven.
6.
To prevenl damage, do not clean or rub the
gasket around the front oven frame. The gasket
is designed to seal in heat during the clean
cycle.
7. The life of the oven light bulb will be prolonged
if the light is turned off during the self-clean
cycle.
