During Self Clean, the oven is heated to a very high
temperature. Remnants from roasting, broiling or baking
are burned off and all you have to do is wipe the ash out
of the oven cavity after the oven has cooled.

WHEN USING THE SELF CLEAN FEATURE
During the elimination of soil during self-cleaning,
▯
small amounts of Carbon Monoxide can be
created and the fiberglass insulation could give
off very small amounts of formaldehyde during
the first several cleaning cycles. To minimize
exposure to these substances, provide good
ventilation with an open window, or use a
ventilation fan or hood.
Do not block the oven vent(s) during the Self
▯
Clean cycle. Always operate the unit according to
the instructions in this User Guide.
When using the Self Clean feature, confirm that
▯
the door locks and will not open. If the door does
not lock, do not run Self Clean. Contact Customer
Service.
The appliance becomes very hot during Self
▯
Clean. Never hang flammable items such as
dishcloths on the door handle. Keep the front of
the appliance clear. Keep children away.
The high temperature during Self Clean destroys
▯
non-stick coatings on trays and molds and toxic
gases are produced. Never leave anything in the
oven during Self Clean.
NOTICE: Do not clean parts or accessories with the Self
Clean feature.
