l
Remove any pota and pans being stored in
the oven.
NOTE: You can clean the broiler pan and grid
in the oven if you have first removed most of
the soil by hand-cleaning or a dishwasher. If
most of the soil is not removed, too much
smoking will occur.
l
Wipe out any loose soil or grease. This will
help reduce smoke during the 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 35.) If
you clean racks in the SeCCleaning cycle,
place them on the 2nd and 4th rack guides.
(Guides are counted from bottom to top.)
l
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.
