SELF-CLEANING THE OVEN
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.
■ Self-clean the oven before it becomes heavily soiled. Heavy
soil results in longer cleaning and more smoke.
■ Remove broiler pan, grid, cookware, and bakeware and, the
meat probe from the oven.
■ Keep the kitchen well-ventilated during the Self-Cleaning
cycle to help get rid of heat, odors, and smoke.
■ Do not block the oven vent(s) during the Self-Cleaning cycle.
Air must be able to move freely. See “Oven Vent” in the
“Know Your Oven” section.
■ Do not clean, rub, damage, or move the oven door gasket.
The door gasket is essential for a good seal.
To Prepare Oven:
2. Remove any foil from oven.
Foil may burn or melt, damaging the oven.
3. Hand clean.
With a damp cloth, hand clean the inside door edge and
1½"(3.8 cm) of the area around the inside oven cavity frame.
Be certain not to move or bend the gasket. This area does
not get hot enough during self-cleaning to remove soil. Do
not let water, cleaners, etc., enter the slots on the door frame.
4. Wipe out loose soil.
Wiping out soil reduces smoke and avoids damage. At high
temperatures, foods react with porcelain. Staining, etching,
pitting, or faint white spots can result. This will not affect
cooking performance.
To Prepare Cooktop:
5. Remove plastic items.
Plastic items may melt.
