Remove the oven
racks before
operating the
selfclean cycle.
Leaving the racks in
place could cause discoloration, and, if food is spilled
into the tracks, could causes the racks to become stuck.
If left, clean by using a mild, abrasive cleaner.
Rinse with clean water and dry.
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 complete, and the oven has
cooled, rub the sides of the racks with wax paper or a
cloth containing a small amount of oil. This will make the
racks glide easier into the rack tracks.

Use soap and water to thoroughly clean the top, sides,
and front of the oven door. Rinse well. You may use a
glass cleaner on the outside glass of the oven door. DO
NOT immerse the door in water. DO NOT spray or allow
water or the glass cleaner to enter the door vents. DO
NOT use oven cleaners, cleaning powders, or any harsh
abrasive cleaning materials on the outside of the oven
door.
DO NOT clean the oven door gasket. The oven door
gasket is made of a woven material which is essential for
a good seal. Care should be taken not to rub, damage,
or remove this gasket.

- It may result in shattering of the glass.
