the inside of the oven easy by using very high temperatures
to burn away food spills.

spills with a damp cloth. Excessive food soils can ignite

IMPORTANT: The health of some birds is extremely
sensitive to the fumes given off during the self-cleaning
cycle of any oven. Move birds to another well-ventilated
room.
NOTE: During the self-clean cycle, the cooktop will be
locked out and not functional. If a surface burner is turned
on after the self-clean cycle has begun, a warning will be
displayed on the Oven Display "err turn surf frnr off" and a
beeping sound will be heard.
NOTE: Self-Clean will not work if the temperature probe is
plugged in.
On double oven models, you can set a clean cycle in both
ovens at the same time. The last oven set will automatically
delay its start until the end of the first oven's clean cycle.
On double oven models, you can bake in one oven and
self-clean in the other at the same time. However, you
cannot use the PROOF mode setting in one oven while the
other oven is self-cleaning.
After a Self Clean Cycle
You may notice some white ash in the oven. Wipe it up with
a damp cloth after the oven cools.
If white spots remain, remove them with warm sudsy water
and rinse thoroughly with a vinegar and water mixture.
These deposits are usually a salt residue that cannot be
removed by the clean cycle.
If the oven is not clean after one clean cycle, repeat the
cycle.
