Using the Self-Cleaning
Cycle
The Self-Cleaning
cycle saves you from the toil and mess that often come with hand-cleaning
the oven interior. Like the other functions of your range, you operate the Self-Cleaning
cycle
with easy-to-use controls. Please review the instructions
in this section to keep your oven
spotless.

Before you start the SelfCleanIng
cycle,
make sure you:
l
Hand-clean
the areas shown. They do
not get hot enough during the cleaning
cycle for soil to burn away. Use hot water
and detergent or a soapy, steel-wool pad
for cleaning.
NOTE: DO NOT clean, move, or bend the
seal. Poor cleaning, baking, and roasting
may result.
l
Remove the broiler
pan and grid and
any pots and pans being stored in the
oven.
NOTE: You can clean the broiler pan
(without grid) in the oven if you have first
removed most of the soil by hand-cleaning
or in a dishwasher.
If most of the soil is not
removed, too much smoking will occur.The
chrome broiler pan and grid will discolor if
cleaned in the Self-Cleaning
cycle.
l
Wipe out any loose soil or grease. This
will help reduce smoke during the Self-
Cleaning cycle.
l
Remove the oven racks from the oven if
you want them to remain shiny. You can
clean the oven racks in the Self-Cleaning
cycle, but they will become harder to slide.
(See page 27.) If you clean racks in the
Self-Cleaning
cycle, place them on the 2nd
and 4th rack guides. (Guides are counted
from bottom to top.)
. Heat and odors are normal during the
Self-Cleaning
cycle. Keep the kitchen well
ventilated by opening a window or by
turning on a vent hood or other kitchen
vent during the cycle.
