Self-Cleaning (Upperovenon y)

During the self=cleaning

cycle, the outside of the wall oven can

become very hot to the touch. DO NOT

leave small children unattended near the

appliance.

The health of some birds is

extremely sensitive to the fumes given off

during the self-clean cycle of any wall oven.

Move birds to another well ventilated room.

DO NOT line the oven walls,

racks, bottom or any other part of the

appliance with aluminum foil. Doing so will

destroy heat distribution, produce poor

baking results and cause permanent

damage to the interior (aluminum foil will

melt to the interior surface of the oven).

DO NOT force the oven door

open. This can damage the automatic door

locking system. Use caution when opening

the door after the Self-Cleaning cycle is

completed. The oven may still be VERY

HOT.

Cleaning section.

Self-Cleaning Oven

A Self-Cleaning oven cleans itself with high temperatures (well above

cooking temperatures) which eliminate soils completely or reduces

them to a fine powdered ash you can wipe away with a damp cloth.

Adhere to the following cleaning precautions:

,, Allow the oven to cool before cleaning.

,, Wear rubber gloves when cleaning any exterior parts of the oven

manually.

,, DO NOT clean the oven door gasket. The woven material of the

oven door gasket is essential for a good seal. Care should be

taken not to rub, damage or remove the gasket.

,, DO NOT use any cleaning materials on the oven door gasket.

Doing so could cause damage.

,, Remove all utensils and any aluminum foil. These items

cannot withstand high cleaning temperatures.

,, Remove the oven racks during the self-clean cycle or they will be

permanently damaged by the high cleaning temperature. If the

racks are cleaned in the self-clean cycle, their color will turn slightly

blue and the finish will be dull. After the self-clean cycle is

completed and the oven has cooled, rub the sides of the racks with

wax paper or a cloth containing a small amount of baby oil or salad

oil (this will make the racks glide easier into the rack positions).

,, Remove any excessive spillovers in the oven cavity before

starting the Self-Cleaning cycle. To clean, use hot, soapy water ..........

and a cloth. Large spillovers can cause heavy smoke or fire when

subjected to high temperatures. DO NOT allow food spills with a

high sugar or acid content (such as milk, tomatoes, sauerkraut, fruit

juices or pie filling) to remain on the surface as they may leave a

dull spot even after cleaning.

,, Clean any soil from the oven frame, the door liner outside the oven

door gasket and the small area at the front center of the oven

bottom. These areas heat sufficiently to burn soil on. Clean with

soap and water.

NOTE: Prior to setting the Self-Clean cycle, any spills remaining on the

oven bottom should be removed.

Some models have an exposed Bake element in the lower oven cavity.

On these models the bake element is designed to be tilted up using

your hand from the front of the bake element. This will allow easier

access to the oven bottom for cleaning. Be careful not to raise the

element more than 4 or 5 inches from the resting position.

The oven bake and broil elements may appear to have

cooled after they have been turned OFF. The elements may still be

hot and burns may occur if these elements are touched before they

have cooled sufficiently.
