Using the Self-Cleaning Cycle
The Self-Cleaning cycle uses
very high heat
to burn away soil. Before you
start, make sure you understand exactly how to use the cycle safely.
Before You Start
1.
Clean the areas shown by hand.
They do not get hot enough dur-
ing the Self-Cleaning cycle for soil
to burn away Use hot water and
detergent or a soapy steel wool
pad on...
l
The inside of the door. (The cen-
ter area of the door does not
need to be hand cleaned.)
l
The frame around the oven.
DO
GLEAN SEAL
DO NOT clean, move or bend the
fiberglass seal. Poor cleaning and
poor baking will result.
2. Remove fhe broiler pan and
any pots and pans you
may
have stored in the oven.
NOTE:
The broiler pan [without
grid) can be cleaned in the
oven only if most of the soil has
been removed by hand-
cleaning or a dishwasher. The
chrome broiler grid will discolor
if cleaned in the Self-
Cleaning cycle.
3.
Wipe out any loose soil or
grease.
This will help reduce
smoke during the Self-Cleaning
cycle.
4. If the oven has a rotisserie, make
sure the motor socket cover is
closed.
