Range Care (continued)
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 affect cooking performance.
To Self-Clean:
NOTE: The oven is preset for a 2.5 hour Cleaning cycle; however, the Cleaning time can be adjusted. Suggested cleaning times are:
2 Hours - Light soil
3.0 Hours - Average soil
.
3.5 Hours - Heavy soil
