Your oven is cleaned by heat (at temperatures
above usual cooking
heats)
which causes soil
to disappear
from the oven. A device
in the
oven further
converts
soil into an essentially
odorless and colorless vapor. A slight odor may
be detected,
especially
during
the
first few
cleanings.

AND
DOOR
LINER—Door
liner outside
the woven
gasket and the oven
frame,
are sealed
off from
the oven during
cleaning,
therefore,
are not cleaned automati-
cally.
However,
during
cleaning
these areas
heat enough
to "bake
on"
soil present so it
becomes
harder
to clean.
If these areas are
soiled,
remove
before
cleaning
automatically,
using soap filled steel wool pad, if necessary.
Rinse thoroughly
to remove soap before clean-
ing. DO NOT CLEAN
GASKET.
See Care of
Woven Gasket below.
CARE
OF WOVEN
GASKET—On
oven door,
see sketch, the woven fiber glass gasket is essen-
tial for a good oven seal. CARE
SHOULD
BE
TAKEN
NOT
TO
RUB,
DAMAGE
OR
MOVE
THE GASKET.
It is not necessary to
use any cleaning
materials
on the gasket and
to do so might damage it.

Some other parts of your range may be cleaned
in your oven during automatic cleaning. Proper
placement
of these parts in the oven is VERY
important
for cleaning.
a. SELF-CLEAN
OVEN
SHELVES.
Place
shelves in bottom
and top positions
in oven.
During cleaning shelves may become iridescent
and may lose some luster. Clean only shelves
from oven specified here. If you prefer NOT to
clean
Self-Clean
oven
shelves
automatically,
DO NOT use any abrasive materials for clean-
ing, such as scouring
powders,
steel wool
or
other abrasive scouring
pads, etc.
b.
ALUMINUM
REFLECTOR
PANS
found
under
surface
units.
Wipe
off boilovers
not
stuck to pans. Place two pans, upside down, on
each Self-Clean
oven shelf.
It is important to invert the pans when cleaning
to prevent distortion.
Also see heat settings on
Surface Cooking pages to prevent boilovers. Re-
flector pans cleaned automatically
may soften
and change in color over a period of time. Re-
placements
can be purchased
if desired
from
your Hotpoint
dealer.
