• 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.
Prepare Oven:
• Remove the broiler pan, cookware and bakeware and, on some models, the temperature probe
from the oven.
• Remove oven racks to keep them shiny and easy to slide. See "General Cleaning" section for more
information.
• Remove any foil from the oven because it may burn or melt, damaging the oven.
• Hand clean inside door edge and the 1½" (3.8 cm) area around the inside oven cavity frame, being
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, cleaner, etc., enter slots on door frame. Use a damp cloth to clean
this area.
• Wipe out any loose soil to reduce smoke and avoid damage. At high temperatures, foods react
with porcelain. Staining, etching, pitting or faint white spots can result. This will not aect cooking
performance.
