Meat not properly prepared. Remove excess fat from meat. Cut remaining fatty edges to
prevent curling, but do not cut into lean.

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 gasket.
•
Oven racks left in oven cavity during Self Clean. Always remove oven racks from oven
cavity before starting a self-clean cycle. Clean by using a mild, abrasive cleaner
following manufacturer's instructions. Rinse with clean water, dry and replace in oven.

Foods with acids, such as tomatoes, if allowed to stand in/on bowls will cause corrosion.
Remove and wash drip bowls as soon as possible after a spill over.

Protect bowls as much as possible from direct exposure to air with high salt content.

surface. This can cause high enough temperatures to discolor the drip bowls. Do not use
cookware of this type. Pan sizes should be matched to the size of the element. Replace-
ment drip bowls may be purchased from your appliance dealer.
