It is normal for your oven door to give
the appearance of not having a good
seal against the range This is due to
the gasket The location of the gasket
on the door maintains a good seal
and prevents any heat loss
--_ tensils should never be
left in the oven during a
self-clean cycle.
The oven racks may be
cleaned during the self-clean
cycle, but will lose their luster
and become hard to slide. If you
choose to leave them in during
the cycle, wiping them down with
vegetable oil after the cycle will
help them slide easier.
For the first clean cycle, vent the
room with an opened window or
hood vent. This will reduce the
odor produced when heating
new parts.
