OVEN SELF-CLEANING
•
Do not touch the oven during the Self-Cleaning cycle.
•
Keep children away from oven during Self-Cleaning cycle.
•
Failure to do so can result in burns.
The Self-Cleaning cycle uses very high temperatures, burning soil to a powdery ash.
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.
NOTES:
•
Self-clean the oven before it becomes heavily soiled. Heavy soil results in longer cleaning and more smoke.
•
Keep the kitchen well-ventilated during the Self-Cleaning cycle to help get rid of heat, odors, and smoke.
•
Do not clean, rub, damage or move the oven gasket. The door gasket is essential for a good seal.
•
Allow the oven to cool to room temperature before using the Self- Clean feature. If your oven cavity is above 170°F
(77°C), "Oven Cooling" will appear in the display and the Self-Clean cycle will not activate until it cools down.
•
The oven light will not work during the Self-Cleaning cycle. On some models, the surface elements will not work
during the Self-Cleaning cycle.
•
When "LOCK" shows in the display, the oven door cannot be opened. To avoid damage to the door, do not force the
door open when "LOCK" is displayed.
