Self-Cleaning Oven; Before A Clean Cycle; To Set Oven For Cleaning - GE Monogram ZEK938 Owner's Manual

Using the Self-Cleaning Oven
Wall Oven
Before a
clean cycle
The oven door must be closed and all controls
must be set correctly for the cycle to work
properly.
We recommend venting your kitchen with an
open window or using a ventilation fan or hood
during the first self-clean cycle.
Remove the broiler pan, broiler grid, probe, all
cookware and any aluminum foil from the oven.
Gray porcelain-coated oven racks (including the
offset rack) may remain in the oven during the
self-cleaning cycle without being damaged. The
nickel-plated oven racks (including the offset
rack) may remain in the oven during the self-
cleaning cycle, but they will darken and become
hard to slide.
Do not use abrasives or oven cleaners. Clean
the top, sides and outside of the oven door
with soap and water.
Hake sure the oven light bulb cover (on some
models) is in place and the oven light is off.
IMPORTANT:The health of some birds is
extremely sensitive to the fumes given off during
the self-cleaning cycle of any oven. Hove birds to
another well-ventilated room.
_CAUTION: Neverplacecooking
utensils or any other items on the oven floor.
There is a heating element beneath the oven
floor. Placing items on the oven floor may cause
the oven to overheat, resulting in damage to the
oven and risk of damage or fire to cabinets.

On double oven models, you can set a clean cycle
in both ovens at the same time. The last oven set
will automatically delay its start until the end of
the first oven's clean cycle.
On double oven models, you can use timed baking
in one oven and self-clean the other at the same
time.
