Remove the broiler pan grid and any
pots and pans
being stored in the oven.
NOTE: You can clean the broiler pan
(without grid) in the oven if you have first
removed most of the soil by hand-cleaning
or a dishwasher.

removed, too much smoking will occur.The
chrome broiler pan grid will discolor if
cleaned in the Self-Cleaning
cycle.

any loose soil or grease.

will help reduce smoke during the cleaning
cycle.

cycle, place them on the 2nd
and 4th rack guides. (Guides are counted
from bottom to top.)
