READ AND FOLLOW THIS SAFETY INFORMATION CAREFULLY.
Do not use oven cleaners. No commercial oven cleaner or oven liner protective coating of any kind
should be used in or around any part of the oven. Residue from oven cleaners will damage the inside
of the oven when the self-clean cycle is used.
■
CAUTION:
DO NOT LEAVE FOOD OR
COOKING UTENSILS, ETC. IN THE OVEN OR ON
THE COOKTOP DURING SELF-CLEANING MODE
OF OPERATION.
■
Do not clean the door gasket. The door gasket
is essential for a good seal. Care should be
taken not to rub, damage or move the gasket.
■
Before self-cleaning the oven, remove the
convection roasting rack, broiler pan, grid
and other cookware.
■
Shiny, silver-colored oven racks (on some
models) should be removed from the oven
before beginning the self-clean cycle.
■
Gray porcelain-coated oven racks (on some
models) may be cleaned in the oven during
the self-clean cycle.
■
Be sure to wipe up excess spillage before
starting the self-cleaning operation.
■
If the self-cleaning mode malfunctions, turn
the oven off and disconnect the power supply.
Have it serviced by a qualified technician.
■
Clean only parts listed in this Owner’s Manual.
■
The surface units are automatically disabled
during the self-clean cycle. Make sure that all
surface unit controls are turned off at all times
during the self-clean cycle. Any surface unit
that is set to an on position, while the self-clean
cycle is operating, will automatically come on
after the self-clean cycle is finished, and could
result in an on, unattended surface unit. Wait
until the self-clean cycle is finished to set and
use the surface units.
SELF-CLEANING OVEN
Stand away from the range when opening the oven door. Hot air or steam which escapes can cause
burns to hands, face and/or eyes.
■
Do not heat unopened food containers.
Pressure could build up and the container
could burst, causing an injury.
■
Keep the oven vent unobstructed.
■
Keep the oven free from grease buildup.
■
Place the oven rack in the desired position
while the oven is cool. If racks must be handled
when hot, do not let pot holder contact the
heating elements.
■
When using cooking or roasting bags in the
oven, follow the manufacturer’s directions.
■
Pulling out the rack to the stop-lock is a
convenience in lifting heavy foods. It is also
a precaution against burns from touching
hot surfaces of the door or oven walls.
■
Do not use the oven to dry newspapers.
If overheated, they can catch on fire.
■
Do not use the oven for a storage area. Items
stored in an oven can ignite.
■
Do not leave paper products, cooking utensils
or food in the oven when not in use.
■
Do not use aluminum foil to line oven
bottoms, except as suggested in this manual.
Improper installation of aluminum foil may
result in a risk of electric shock or fire.
