make sure you understand exactly how to use the Cycle Safely
Before you start
1.
Clean the shaded areas by hand
They do not get hot enough dur-
ing the Self-Clean cycle for soil to
burn away. Use hot water and
detergent or a soapy steel-wool
pad on...
l
the frame around the oven
l
the inside of the door, especially
the part outside the oven seal.
DO NOT clean the flberglars seal.
DO NOT move if or bend If. Poor
cleaning and poor baking will result.
2. Remove the broiler pan and any
pots or pans you may have stored
in the oven. They can't stand the
high heat.

ing the cleaning cycle.
