Before you start the Self-Cleaning cycle, make
sure you:
NOTE: DO NOT dean, move, or bend the gasket. You
may get poor cHeaning, baking and roasting.
®Hand-dean the areas shown. They do not get hot
enough during the SeHf-CHeaningcycHefor soiHto
burn away. Use hot water and detergent or a soapy,
steeFwooH pad for cHeaning.
®Do not let water, cleaner, etc, enter shots on door
and frame.
®Remove the broiHerpan and grid and any
cookwareibakeware being stored in the oven.
®Wipe out any HoosesoiHor grease. This will heHp
reduce smoke during the SeHf-CHeaningcycle.
®Wipe up food spills containing sugar as soon as
possiMe after the oven cooHs down. When sugar is
heated to a high temperature in the Self-Cleaning
cycle, the high temperature can cause the sugar to
burn and react with the porcelain. This can cause
etching, pitting or faint white spots.
®Remove the oven racks from the oven if you want
them to remain shiny. You can clean the oven racks
in the Self-Cleaning cycle, but they will become
harder to slide. (See the "Cleaning chart" in the
"Caring for Your Range" section.) If you clean the
racks in the Self-Cleaning cycle, place them on the
2nd and 4th rack guides. (The guides are counted
from bottom to top.)
®Heat and odors are normal during the Self-Cleaning
cycle. Keep the kitchen well ventilated by opening a
window or by turning on a vent hood or other
kitchen vent during the cycle.
IMPORTANT: The health of some birds is extremely
sensitive to the fumes given off during the Self-
Cleaning cycle. Exposure to the fumes may result in
death to certain birds. Always move birds to another
closed and well ventilated room.

TIPS:
• Keep the kitchen well ventilated during the
Self-Cleaning cycle to help get rid of heat, odors,
and smoke.
• Clean the oven before it gets heavily soiled.
Cleaning a very soiled oven takes longer and
results in more smoke than usual.
• Do not block the vent during the Self-Cleaning
cycle. Air must move freely for best cleaning results.
• Do not leave plastic utensils on the cooktop. They
may melt.
• Remove any combustible items, such as paper
napkins, from the storage drawer. This includes
utensils with plastic handles that can become
overheated and melt.
• Do not leave any foil in the oven during the
Self-Cleaning cycle. Foil could burn or melt and
damage the oven surface.
• The oven light will not work during the
Self-Cleaning cycle.
