Self Clean

9 WARNING
Children should not be left alone or unattended in an
area where appliances are in use. During the Self
Clean cycle, parts of the appliance may become
potentially harmful to persons who lack adult
knowledge of appliances and adult reactions to
potentially harmful conditions.
During the elimination of soil during self-cleaning,
small amounts of carbon monoxide can be created.
Fiberglass insulation could give off very small
amounts of formaldehyde during the first several
cleansing cycles. To minimize exposure to these
substances, provide good ventilation with an open
window, or use a ventilation fan or hood.
Self Clean
During Self Clean, the oven is heated to a very high
temperature. Soil is burned off at this temperature.
