Lower Oven Self-Clean
self-clean
A self-cleaning oven automatically cleans with high
temperatures that are well above those used for
normal cooking. The self-clean feature eliminates
soils completely or reduces them to a fine
powdered ash that you can later easily wipe away
with a damp cloth.
Adhere to the following precautions when
running the self-clean cycle:
Do not use oven cleaners or protective coatings
in or around the oven interior.
Do not clean the oven door gasket. The woven
material of the oven door gasket is essential for
a good seal. Care should be taken not to rub,
damage or remove the gasket. -Fig. 1-
Do not use any cleaning materials on the door
gasket. Leaving chemical residue can damage
the door gasket.
DO NOT force the oven door open. The
automatic door locking system can be damaged.
Remove the broiler pan, insert, all utensils
and any aluminum foil. These items cannot
withstand high cleaning temperatures.
All oven racks and supports MUST be removed.
If they are left in while attempting to set a self-
clean cycle, the display will show REMOVE
RACKS -Fig. 2. The oven control will not start
a self-clean cycle without first removing all the
oven racks and supports.
Remove any excessive spillovers in the oven
cavity before starting a self-clean cycle. To
clean, use hot, soapy water and a cloth. Large
spillovers can cause heavy smoke or fire when
subjected to high temperatures.
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 with
soap and water. These areas heat sufficiently to
burn soil on.
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 porcelain
surface, they may leave a dull spot even after
cleaning.
