THH SELF=CLEAN
CYCL
(3 NOURS ° NOnMAL CLEAN TAMS)
BEFORE
A CLEAN
CYCLE
1. Remove the broiler pan and grid, oven racks, all
utensils and any foil that may be in the oven. Do not
try to clean utensils or any other objects in the oven
during a self-clean cycle_ if oven racks
are left in
the range during a clean cycle, they will darken,
lose their
luster
and become
hard to slide,
if
you choose
to leave
the racks
in the oven, you
can polish
the edges
of the racks
with
stee!
wool and apply a small amount
of vegetable
oil
to the rack
edges
after
the
sell-clean
cycle.
This will make
the racks
easier
to slide,
2. Soil on the oven front frame, under the front edge of
the cooktop, the door liner outside the door gasket
and the front edge of the oven cavity (about 1" into the
oven) will not be cleaned during a clean cycle (see
illustration below). Clean these areas by hand before
starting a clean cycle.
Use hot water with a soap-filled steel wool pad. We
recommend a cleanser such as 'Soft Scrub®' brand
or a similar cleaning product to keep white surfaces
looking clean and new. After cleaning, rinse well to
help prevent a brown residue from forming when the
oven Is heated. Buff these areas dry with a dry cloth_
Please
Note:
The door gasket
is designed
to have
a 5".6" gap
at the bottom
of the oven door.
This
