THE $ LF=CL AN CYCLE
BEFORK A CLEAN CYCLH
1. Remove the broil pan and grid, oven racks, all utensils
and any foil that may be in the oven. Do not try to
clean utensils or any other objects In the oven during
a self-clean cycle° if oven racks are left in the
range during a clean cycle, they wiSUdarken,
lose their luster and become hard to sSide, if
you choose to leave the racks in the oven, you can
polish the edges of the racks with steel wool and
apply a small amount of vegetable oil to the rack
edges after the self-clean cycle. This will make the
racks easier to slide.
2. Soil on theoven front frame and the door liner outside
the door seal and the front edge of the oven cavity
(about 1" into the oven) will not be cleaned during a
clean cycle (see illustration below). Clean these
areas by hand before starting a clean cycle_ Do not
let water run down through openings in the top
of the door,
Use hot water with a soap-filled steel wool pad, then
rinse well.
No matter how stubborn the stain, never use harsh
abrasive cleaners. They could permanently damage
the enamel surface° We recommend a cleanser such
as 'Soft Scrub®' brand or a similar cleaning product
to keep white surfaces Iooklng clean and new° After
cleaning, rinse well with a vinegar and water mixture.
This will help prevent a brown residue from forming
when the oven is heated. Buff these areas dry with a
dry cloth.

3, Wipe up heavy spillovers on the oven bottom. Too
much soil may cause smoking during the clean cycle.
4. Clean the door seal by using a clean sponge to soak
the soiled area with hydrogen peroxide. Repeated
soaking may be needed depending on the amount of
soil. Frequent cleaning will help prevent excessive
soil buildup. Do not rub the door seal The fiberglass
material of the seal has an extremely low resistance
to abrasion° An Intact and well fitting oven door seal
ls essential for energy efficient oven operation and
good baking results. If you notice the seal becoming
worn, frayed or damaged In any way or If tt has
become displaced on the door, you should replace
the seal.
AFTER A CLEAN CYCLE
Aftera clean cycle, you may notice some white ash Inthe
oven. Just wipe tt up with a damp cloth.
If white spots remain, remove them with a soap-filled
steel wool pad. Be sure to rinse thoroughly with a
vinegar and water mixture. These deposits are usually
a salt residue that cannot be removed by the clean cycle.
If the oven Is not clean after one clean cycle, the cycle
may be repeated_
