36 CARE AND CLEANING
SELF CLEAN
The self clean cycle uses extremely hot temperatures to
clean the oven cavity. While running the Setf Clean cycle,
you may notice smoking or an odor. This is normal;
especially if the oven is heavily soiled.
During Self Clean, the kitchen should be well ventilated to
minimize the odors from cleaning.

• Ifyou have pet birds, move them toanotherwell-

• DO NOT line the oven walls, racks, bottom or any
otherpartofthe range with aluminum foil o r any
other material. Doing so will destroy heat distribution,
produce poor baking results and cause permanent
damage to the oven interior (aluminum foil will melt to
the interior surface of the oven).
• DO NOT force the door open. This can damage the
automatic door locking system. Use care when opening
the oven door after the Self Clean cycle. Stand to the
side of the oven when opening the door to allow hot air
or steam to escape. The oven may still be VERY HOT.
Before Starling Self Clean:
• Remove the oven racks, broiler pan, broiler grid, all
cookware, aluminum foil or any other material from the
oven.
• The kitchen should be welt ventilated to minimize the
odors from cleaning.
• Wipe any heavy spillovers on the bottom of the oven.
• Make sure that the oven light bulb cover is in place and
the oven light is off.
• The oven light cannot be turned on during a self clean
cycle. The oven light cannot be turned on until the oven
temperature has cooled below 500°F (260°C) after a self
clean cycle is complete.
During the setf clean cycle, the cooktop elements and
warming drawer cannot be used.
_-@ NOTE
• Remove oven racks and accessories before starting
the setf clean cycle.
• If oven racks are left in the oven cavity during the setf
clean cycle, they will discolor and become difficult to
slide in and out.
• Clean the frame of the oven and door with hot soapy
water. Rinse wetl.
• Do not clean the gasket. The fiberglass material of the
oven door gasket cannot withstand abrasion.
It is essential for the gasket to remain intact. If you
notice it becoming worn or frayed, replace it.
• Wipe up any heavy spillovers on the oven bottom.
• Make sure that the oven light bulb cover is in place and
