Self-Cleaning
During the self=cleaning
cycle, the outside of the wall oven can
become very hot to the touch. DO NOT
leave small children unattended near the
appliance.
The health of some birds is
extremely sensitive to the fumes given off
during the self-clean cycle of any wall oven.
Move birds to another well ventilated room.
DO NOT line the oven walls,
racks, bottom or any other part of the appli-
ance with aluminum foil. Doing so will de-
stroy heat distribution, produce poor baking
results and cause permanent damage to the
interior (aluminum foil will melt to the interior
surface of the oven).
DO NOT force the oven door
open. This can damage the automatic door
locking system. Use caution when open-
ing the door after the Self-Cleaning cycle is
completed. The oven may still be VERY HOT.

Self-Cleaning Oven
A Self-Cleaning oven cleans itself with high temperatures (well above
cooking temperatures) which eliminate soils completely or reduces them
to a fine powdered ash you can wipe away with a damp cloth,
Adhere to the following cleaning precautions:
Allow the oven to cool before cleaning.
Wear rubber gloves when cleaning any exterior parts of the oven
manually.
DO NOT use oven cleaners or oven protective coatings in or around
any part of 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.
DO NOT use any cleaning materials on the oven door gasket. Doing
so could cause damage.
,, Remove all utensils and any aluminum foil.These items cannot
withstand high cleaning temperatures.
,, Oven racks do not have to be removed, but remaining in the oven
during the Self-Clean will turn them slightly blue and dull their finish.
If left in, after the cycle is complete and the oven has cooled, rub
the sides of the oven racks with wax paper or a cloth containing a
small amount of salad oil (this will make the racks glide easier into
the rack position).
,, Remove any excessive 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 leave a
dull spot even after cleaning.
,, 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. DO NOT hand clean the oven door gasket.
NOTE: Prior to setting the Self-Clean cycle, any spills remaining on the
oven bottom should be removed.
Some models have an exposed Bake element in the lower oven cavity.
On these models the bake element is designed to be tilted up using
your hand from the front of the bake element. This will allow easier
access to the oven bottom for cleaning. Be careful not to raise the
element more than 4 or 5 inches from the resting position.
The oven bake and broil elements may appear to have
cooled after they have been turned OFR The elements may still be
hot and burns may occur if these elements are touched before they
have cooled sufficiently.
