SELF-CLEANING

Preparing for self-clean
A self-cleaning oven cleans itself using high temperatures
that are well above normal cooking temperatures. The
self-clean feature, if used properly, will eliminate soils
from the oven completely or reduce them to a fine
powdered ash. Once the oven has cooled, simply wipe
away the ash using a damp cloth.
Your oven provides three self-cleaning duration choices. A
3-hour cleaning time for normal cleaning; a 2-hour clean
for lighter soils and a 4-hour option for heavier burnt-on
soils (some models).
WARNING
• Do not touch the oven during the self-clean cycle.
• Keep children away from oven during self-clean cycle.
• Failure to follow these instructions can result in burns.
CAUTION
The health of some birds is extremely sensitive to the
fumes given off during the self-cleaning cycle of any
range. Move birds to another well-ventilated room.

IMPORTANT
• Remove all items from the oven and cooktop,
including food, cookware, utensils, plastic and
any aluminum foil and temp probe (if equipped).
Aluminum foil will not withstand high temperatures
generated during a self-clean cycle.
• Remove all oven racks and any accessories from
the oven to avoid possible heat damage. If the oven
racks are not removed they may discolor. The
Effortless™ Oven Rack (some models) must be
removed before starting self-clean to avoid damaging
the glide ability of the rack.
• Be sure the oven vent area is clear.
• Remove all items from the storage drawer (some
models) or warming drawer (some models).
• Be sure the oven light shield is in place. Turn off the
oven light.
• Remove any excessive spillovers. Spills on the
oven bottom should be wiped-up and removed
before starting self-clean. To clean, use hot,
soapy water and a cloth. Large food spillovers can
cause heavy smoke or a fire during self-clean.
• Remove any food spills from oven that have a high
sugar or acid content (such as milk, tomatoes,
sauerkraut, fruit juices or pie filling) before starting a
self-clean cycle. If they are not removed they may
leave a dull spot even after self-cleaning.
• Clean any soil from the outer oven frame, the door
liner outside the oven door gasket and the small area
at the front center of the oven bottom. Clean using
do not
soap and water before starting self-clean. These
clean
areas (See Fig. 1) heat sufficiently to burn soil on.
• Do not clean the oven door gasket (See Fig. 1).
Do not use any cleaning materials on the oven door
gasket. Doing so could cause damage to the door
gasket. The woven material of the oven door gasket
is essential for a good seal. Care should be taken not
to rub, damage or remove the gasket.
• Do not use commercial oven cleaners or protective
coatings of any kind inside oven. Residue from oven
cleaners may damage the porcelain during the next
self-clean cycle.
