SPECIAL CAUTIONS
SPECIAL TIPS 1.
2. Keep the kitchen well ventilated during the cleaning cycle to help get rid of normal heat odors and smoke. Clean the oven before it gets heavily soiled. Cleaning a very soiled oven takes longer and results in more smoke than usual. If the cleaning cycle doesn�t get the oven as clean as you expected, the cycle may not have been set long enough. Set the cleaning time longer for heavier soil. Oven racks lose their shine, discolor and become harder to slide on their guides when they are left in the oven during the cleaning cycle. To make them slide easier, polish the edges of the racks and rack guides with a soapy steel-wool pad, rinse well, and wipe on a thin coat of salad oil. To stop the cleaning cycle after it has started: l Turn the Stop Time Knob clockwise until the hand points to the right time of day l Turn the Oven Selector and Oven Temperature Control to OFF. When the oven cools, move the l Lock Lever back to the left. DC NOT FORCE IT, Wait until it moves easily.
DO NOT block the vent during the cleaning cycle. Air must move freely for best results. DO NOT touch the range cvcle...it can burn vou. during the cleaning 3.
DO NOT use foil or other liners in the oven. During the cleaning cycle, foil can burn or melt. 4.
5. DO NOT use commercial oven cleaners in your oven. Damage to the porcelain finish may occur. DO NOT force the Lock Lever. The lever is designed to stay locked until the oven is cool enough to safely open. 12
