The oven door must be closed and all controls must be set correctly for the cycle to work properly.
Before a Clean Cycle
We recommend venting your kitchen
with an open window or using a
ventilation fan or hood during 
the first self-clean cycle.
Remove broiler pan, broiler grid, all
cookware and any aluminum foil from
the oven.
The shiny, silver-colored oven racks 
(on some models) can be self-cleaned,
but they will darken, lose their luster 
and become hard to slide.
Do not use abrasives or oven cleaners.
Clean the top, sides and outside of the
oven door with soap and water.
Make sure the oven light bulb cover 
is in place and the oven light is off.
NOTE: See the Cleaning the Oven Door
section in the Care and Cleaning section for
instructions on how to clean the inner
door outside the gasket. This area is not
cleaned during the self-clean cycle.
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.
Wipe up heavy soil on the oven
bottom. (appearance may vary)
