between the meat and the element. Preheat broil element for searing.
Meat not properly prepared. Remove excess fat from meat. Cut remaining fatty
edges to prevent curling, but do not cut into lean.

the broiler pan with ribs up and slots down to allow grease to drip into pan.

Failure to clean bottom, front top of oven, frame of oven or door area outside oven
seal. These areas are not in the self-cleaning area, but get hot enough to burn on
residue. Clean these areas before the self-cleaning cycle is started. Burned-on residue
can be cleaned with a stiff nylon brush and water or a nylon scrubber. Be careful
not to damage the oven seal.
Excessive spillovers in oven. Set self-clean cycle for a longer cleaning time.
Excessive spillovers in oven. This is normal, especially for high oven temperatures,
pie spillovers or large amounts of grease on bottom of oven. Wipe up excessive
spillovers before starting cycle. If flames or excessive smoke are present, stop the
self-clean cycle and follow steps under "Stopping or Interrupting a Self-Cleaning
Cycle" in the Oven Cleaning section.
