SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
The self-cleaning feature operates the oven at temperatures high enough to burn away food soils in the

during self-cleaning. Failure to follow these
instructions may cause burns.

shiny metal oven racks and other utensils from the
oven. Only gray porcelain-coated oven racks may
be left in the oven. Do not use self-clean to clean
other parts, such as drip pans or bowls.

grease and food soils from the oven. Excessive
amount of grease may ignite leading to smoke
damage to your home.
Ŷ If the self-cleaning mode malfunctions, turn the
oven off and disconnect the power supply. Have it
serviced by a qualified technician.
Ŷ 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.

cleaner or oven liner protective coating of any kind
should be used in or around any part of the oven.
SELF-CLEANING OVEN SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
(on some models)
WARNING
Ŷ 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.
Ŷ Do not use the oven if a heating element
develops a glowing spot during use or shows
other signs of damage. A glowing spot indicates
the heating element may fail and present a
potential burn, fire, or shock hazard. Turn the
oven off immediately and have the heating
element replaced by a qualified service
technician.
Ŷ Keep the oven vent unobstructed.
Ŷ Keep the oven free from grease buildup. Grease
in the oven may ignite.
Ŷ Place oven racks in desired location while oven
is cool. If rack must be moved while oven is hot,
do not let pot holder contact hot heating element
in oven.
Ŷ When using cooking or roasting bags in the
oven, follow the manufacturer’s directions.
Ŷ Pull the oven rack to the stop-lock position when
loading and unloading food from the oven. This
helps prevent burns from touching hot surfaces
of the door and oven walls.
Ŷ Do not leave items such as paper, cooking
utensils or food in the oven when not in use.
Items stored in an oven can ignite.
Ŷ Never place cooking utensils, pizza or baking
stones, or any type of foil or liner on the oven
floor. These items can trap heat or melt, resulting
in damage to the product and risk of shock,
smoke or fire.
